The Ford Transit Courier Cargo Van impresses with 136 HP 293 km and an attractive starting price of 18900 £ . Here are all the details at a glance.
The Transit Courier wears a compact, purposeful van silhouette that makes it feel at home on tight city streets while still looking robust on the motorway, measuring about 4.34 metres long with a tall roofline. The front grille and headlight treatment borrow familiar Ford family cues, giving it more visual polish than a pure workhorse. Overall the look balances professionalism with a hint of urban friendliness that won’t embarrass a tradesperson on a client visit.
The cab is built for work rather than luxury, with durable plastics, practical storage cubbies and seats that prioritise support over softness for long shifts behind the wheel. Seating layouts include two-seat commercial and five-seat double-cab options, and the passenger area can be configured to carry longer items when needed. Small details such as accessible cupholders, sensible switchgear and a reasonably placed infotainment screen make daily tasks less fiddly.
Load capacity is the Courier’s headline: cargo volume ranges up to about 2,900 litres depending on configuration, and payloads approach 710 kg in the heaviest-duty spec, so this van will swallow tools, boxes or a couple of small appliances without drama. Sliding side doors and wide-opening rear doors make loading quick in tight spots, and the compact exterior dimensions keep parking and manoeuvring simple for urban deliveries. For businesses that need a small footprint with real carrying ability, the Courier keeps practicality front and centre.
The chassis is tuned for utility but still pleasant around town: steering is light at low speeds for parking and stable on the motorway thanks to front-wheel drive and a compact footprint. Powertrain choices cover the practical spectrum — turbo petrol 1.0 EcoBoost in 100 or 125 hp, a 1.5 EcoBlue diesel around 100 hp, and a fully electric E-Transit Courier with 136 hp — so buyers can prioritise performance, economy or zero-emissions operation. With payload onboard the diesel’s low-end torque helps more than the petrol, while the electric version delivers immediate response and a smoother, quieter drive for short urban runs.
Fuel consumption depends on the powertrain: petrol models are around 6.5–6.6 L/100 km, diesel models about 5.1 L/100 km, and the electric version consumes around 17.1 kWh/100 km with a 43.5 kWh battery and an official WLTP range near 293 km. In everyday terms the petrol variants are economical for mixed use, the diesel gives the lowest running cost on long daily miles and the electric is ideal for stop-start urban rounds where quiet and zero tailpipe emissions matter. Tank sizes of roughly 44–45 litres mean a petrol van can often travel north of 600 km between refuels on mixed driving, while diesel variants can stretch that figure further thanks to lower consumption.
Ford equips the Courier with modern convenience tech that matters for work: touchscreen infotainment with smartphone integration, Bluetooth and USB keep routes and calls accessible, and the electric range displays are intuitive on the E-variant. Driver aids commonly found include automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping assists and parking sensors or a camera as options, which reduce stress on busy urban rounds. These systems aren’t flashy, but they improve day-to-day safety and make repetitive driving less tiring for fleet drivers.
The Transit Courier is aimed squarely at urban tradespeople, small businesses and fleet operators who need a compact van that still carries real load and payload without the size and running costs of a larger Transit. Choose diesel for long highway stints and heavy daily loads, petrol for mixed use with lower complexity, or the electric E-Transit Courier for city operations where range of up to ~293 km and zero tailpipe emissions make sense. For buyers wanting a no-nonsense, manoeuvrable work van with respectable carrying ability, the Courier strikes a sensible balance between cost, capability and everyday usability.
