Ford Pro has introduced the new E-Tourneo Custom all-electric, which can seat up to eight people and is perfect for people-carrying companies and families that need a lot of space. The all-electric utility vehicle was built on a brand-new platform that makes it as easy to use and as comfortable as possible. It also has a highly efficient battery-electric powertrain that gives it a range of up to 370 km.
The new Ford E-Tourneo Custom electric van sets a whole new standard for this market segment. This large electric car appeals to many buyers because of its electric range, comfort, performance, driving characteristics, ease of use, and digital services and solutions.
The new model can fit up to eight people and has a lot of room for their luggage. The FordE-Tourneo Custom has many high-end features, such as highly flexible rear seats mounted on rails, electric side doors, a premium B&O sound system, digital key cards, a panoramic roof, and an innovative steering wheel that can be folded into a small table.
The Ford E-Tourneo Custom electric minivan can be used to transport people, for business, or by a busy extended family. It has high-tech digital services, a beautiful design, and many luxurious features that will make the drive even more comfortable. The Tourneo name has always been associated with plenty of room and ease of use, just like the Ford Tourneo Connect.
The Ford E-Tourneo Custom electric van will go on sale in early 2023, and the first customers will get their cars in the fourth quarter of that year.
The E-Tourneo Custom's 74 kWh usable battery pack has the same energy-dense battery cells as the Ford F-150 Lightning. Together with the large all-electric utility vehicle's 217 HP electric motor, this will give it excellent performance. The Ford E-Tourneo Custom electric minivan can also be driven with just one pedal, which makes driving even more energy-efficient, relaxing, and comfortable.
The new Ford E-Tourneo Custom comes with an 11 kW AC 3-phase onboard charger that lets the vehicle be fully charged in less than 8 hours. With 125 kW DC fast charging, it takes about 41 minutes to charge it from 15% to 80%. The E-Tourneo has a charging profile that lets a 125 kW fast charger give up to 38 km of electric range in just 5 minutes.
With a maximum trailer weight capacity of 2,000 kg and a high payload, the Ford E-Tourneo Custom can carry a large family and a lot of luggage, or traders can use it to move people and goods.
With Pro Power On Board, the car can also be used as a power source. Contacts inside the car can be used to get up to 2300 watts of power. This is a great way to get power for digital devices and tools or when you need power on a family camping trip.
The new Ford electric van has made passengers' lives much easier and more comfortable. The cabin has a lot of space, and the new Ford E-Tourneo Custom can come with up to 8 seats in 3 rows.
The seats in the second and third rows are fixed with a new rail system that gives the compartment as much flexibility as possible when the number of people, luggage, and other needs change. You can move the seats back and forth or take them out if necessary.
Many new solutions for the compartment can improve the trip or add a personal touch to the vehicle. The large panoramic roof lets in a lot of light and makes the cabin feel bigger. When the sun is strong, the heat-reflecting glass keeps the cabin cool. The electric sliding door on the side of the car can be opened by moving the foot under the car by the front wheel. This is helpful when the driver is carrying heavy things.
Ford has also made an innovative new key system called Digital Key. This is supposed to be out in 2024. It uses NFC technology, which is based on hotel key cards. This lets the car be opened with a thin, waterproof card instead of a bunch of keys, which can be easier to carry. It can also be helpful for businesses that use the same car with more than one driver.
Because of the new architecture, the floor height is also lower. The new built-in step on the E-Tourneo Custom makes it easier to get in and out of the all-electric, multipurpose vehicle. The car's height has also been cut and is now less than two meters tall. This makes it easier to get in and out parking garages with low ceilings. It uses less energy because of how well it moves through the air.
The new chassis and independent rear suspension make driving better for both the driver and the people in the car.
Ford's newest and most advanced driver assistance systems are built into the new Ford E-Tourneo Custom. These include adaptive cruise control with lane departure warning, active parking assistant, emergency brake assistant when reversing, and a 360-degree camera system that lets you see the whole car at once.
The fully electric 8-seater comes with a 5G modem, making it easy to use Ford Pro's many digital services. The FordPass Pro app allows owners to control charging, pre-heat the cabin and battery, lock the doors, and get vehicle-specific alerts. Software solutions that help companies be more productive are also available from Ford Pro.
