The new Ford Transit van of the year
The 2007 ‘van of the year’ has been awarded to the all-new Ford Transit. The votes were cast by leading commercial vehicle journalists from 19 European countries. As well as the new Ford Transit being the consistently elected one of the most popular workhorses in Europe in terms of ‘fit-for-purpose’ it now boasts the very latest in-van gadgetry, sat-nav, cruise control, bluetooth and a clever ‘auxillary-in’ socket which allows drivers or passengers to plug in music players like iPods to play through the audio system, their own research suggested the top three music choices for van drivers are pop 56%, rock 15% and R&B 10%.
Couple all this with a completely new range of Euro IV- compliant TDCi diesel engines it lead to an official statement from the ‘Van of the Year’ jury saying: “In announcing the decision, the jury was particularly impressed by the fact that Ford’s engineers have taken one of Europe’s best vans and made it even better”.
