The all-new Transit Cargo and Tourneo Custom are now rolling into New Zealand, offering advanced technology, contemporary design and clever, practical interiors.
The Transit Cargo, in van configuration, is a significant upgrade of the classic model large van. With an even larger cargo capacity than the previous model, the Transit Cargo provides professional tradesmen and commercial fleet customers with better fuel economy, innovative configurations and practical versatility in New Zealand’s commercial vehicle market.
In addition the Transit Cargo differentiates itself within the segment by offering standard fit cruise control and best-in-class fuel economy across the range, and on the vans, a rear camera, and front and rear parking sensors.
“Drivers and companies should expect more from their company commercial vehicles, including better safety and increased capability but also smart features that make the driver’s job easier day to day,” said Corey Holter, managing director Ford NZ.
All variants of the Transit Cargo are powered by Ford’s proven 2.2-litre Duratorq TDCi diesel engine, with 114kW and 385Nm of torque, with a six-speed manual gearbox, and rear-wheel drive transmission, Auto-Start-Stop is standard across the range.

Based on the Custom van, it has a luxurious interior with innovative flexible rear seats, capable of more than 30 different configurations, as well as other smart features such as Ford SYNC, as well as the integrated, fold-away roof racks. And the vehicle’s aerodynamic design, economical engine and fuel-saving technologies – including Auto-Start-Stop – make it one of the most efficient people movers available in New Zealand.
The Tourneo Custom is extremely cost-effective for business use or as a safe, luxurious way of carrying family, friends and all their gear, with a maximum 5-star safety rating by Euro NCAP with an array of safety features, including six airbags as standard, and Isofix child seat attachments.
“The Tourneo Custom is impressive in its ability to please everyone, from the driver to rear passengers,” said Holter.
“It’s great to sit in and great to drive. With five star safety, there is no safer passenger van in New Zealand. And the generous space for luggage and gear, even with a full complement of passengers, make it very practical. Our early customers have been very impressed with the overall package the Tourneo offers.”
RRP $56,990.
