🔴 World Premiere: Ford’s Brand New Entry-Level Urban EV is Here! Ford Pro is completely stealing the spotlight at the 2026 Commercial Vehicle Show here at the NEC Birmingham with the massive public debut of an entirely new nameplate: the 2027 Ford Transit City! Slipping perfectly into the lineup between the E-Transit Courier and the E-Transit Custom, this back-to-basics electric van is heavily engineered specifically for last-mile deliveries, municipal fleets, and urban tradespeople. Ditching endless, confusing trim levels for a highly simplified, cost-effective, and fully loaded standard package, the Transit City is here to democratize zero-emission business transport. We take a complete walkaround of the spacious L2H2 variant to check out the massive 8.5 cubic meters of cargo space, the fast-charging tech, and the incredibly smart cab interior!
Key 2027 Specs & Features: The Urban EV Powertrain: Powering this city slicker is a rugged 110 kW (147 HP) front-mounted electric motor paired with a highly durable 56 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery. It delivers a targeted range of up to 158 miles (254 km)—which Ford’s telematics data proves is more than double the daily average for urban delivery drivers. It even features a dedicated One-Pedal Drive mode to massively reduce driver fatigue in heavy Birmingham stop-and-go traffic! Fast & Flexible Charging: Downtime costs money, so the Transit City is built to charge quickly. Using an 87 kW DC fast charger, you can pump the battery from 10% to 80% in just 33 minutes (adding roughly 50 km of range in just 10 minutes during a coffee break!). For overnight depot charging, the 11 kW AC charger will top it up fully in around 5 hours. Massive Payload & Cargo: Despite its footprint, it punches way above its weight class. While the smaller L1H1 model is perfect for tight alleys, the larger L2H2 model showcased here boasts a cavernous 8.5 m³ cargo volume, a load length of over 3 meters, and a massive payload capacity of up to 1,275 kg! It comes standard with a cargo floor liner, half-height interior panels, and heavy-duty tie-down points ready for work. Smart & Simple Tech: Ford Pro kept things straightforward but highly premium. There is only one high-spec trim level, meaning every Transit City comes standard with a brilliant 12-inch dashboard touchscreen featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The cab also includes a heated driver's seat, keyless start, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and a factory rear-view camera to prevent loading dock bumps!
