The second-generation Transit Custom can be outfitted with a diesel or hybrid powertrain, paired with either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission.
Designed for carrying cargo, the Ford Transit Custom does everything that it's supposed to and adds comfort into the mix.
The Ford Transit Custom first arrived in the UK in 2012 and became an instant success. With a variety of powertrain options, it was, and continues to be a great choice for deliveries and businesses because of its car-like drive. Currently in its second generation, Ford continues to increase the amount of technology and features provided in this van.
The Transit Custom was updated to provide even more versatility and reliability. With innovative technology and upgraded safety features, there's more to enjoy with the lineup of cargo vans. It can be customised with a low or high roof height, depending how much cargo room is needed.
There are also additional lengths and several powertrain options. With diesel or hybrid powertrains, drivers don't have to choose between efficiency and acceleration.
When it first arrived, there may have been too many options to choose from, but it didn't take long for customers to become thrilled with all of the choices.
In 2018, Ford released a slight refresh, offering a better look so that it could remain competitive. It must have been a success because in 2021, it was one of the best-selling vehicles in the UK.
There's not a lot of data out on the second-generation van yet, as it was just released in 2023. First-generation models seem to be holding up well though.
The Ford Transit Custom is a mid-sized van that has been in production since 2012. It's smaller than the Transit, which is the company's largest van.
If you plan to buy a used first-generation Transit Custom, consider looking at the ones after the refresh in 2017. These models have more standard equipment and an upgraded design. The newest second-generation is also considered a top choice.
These Transit models have been popular because of the customisation that's available. They also offer lots of cargo space, as is expected, but are still enjoyable to drive.
