Ford Transit City: Van for under 36,000 Euros
Marie-Kristin Wricke, also known as Madame Electric, is taking a look at the new Ford Transit City at IAA Transportation. This compact van differs significantly from previous Ford models: it will be offered exclusively as an electric vehicle and is designed to be straightforward in design.

Ford states that the starting price is just under 36,000 euros. There are no extensive configuration lists: aside from a few colors, Ford largely omits options. The Transit City was specifically developed for urban use — for tradespeople, municipal services, and other users who primarily travel short distances within the city or its outskirts.
In the video, Marie talks with Leonhard Lilienthal, a Ford product specialist, about the concept behind the vehicle and its different variants. Available options include a compact van with a short wheelbase, a larger version with a longer wheelbase and higher roof, as well as a chassis for custom builds for the first time.
This specific chassis version is intended to open up new applications and target markets for Ford. At the same time, the design remains focused on simplicity: for example, no trailer hitch is included.
Presales have already begun, and according to Ford, the first vehicles are already on their way to customers.

She meant by ship from China.

A lot of text and video about a new electric car... but no clear information on range or battery capacity. Is it so low that it’s embarrassing?

Is this the official bankruptcy declaration of Henry Ford Motor Company as a former independent commercial vehicle manufacturer? Chinese badge engineering? Surely no one will fix anything given the high manufacturing costs. Maybe we should ask D.T. what he thinks about this import?
