City World Ford has published a guide to the Ford Transit Commercial Van lineup for business owners, tradespeople and fleet managers in the Bronx, Yonkers, Manhattan and Queens.Running a delivery route or contractor business in New York City means balancing cargo room against garage clearance, loading-zone access and winter road conditions.

Operators who want to match a roof height or wheelbase to a particular job can look at the Ford Transit Cargo Van models at City World Ford, or compare configurations among the dealership’s New Ford Transit Vehicles.

At a Glance: Ford Transit Cargo Van

The vehicle is available with low, medium and high roof configurations, offering approximate interior cargo heights of 56.9 inches, 72.0 inches and 81.5 inches, respectively. Cargo volume ranges from approximately 246.7 cubic feet in the regular-length, low-roof configuration to 487.3 cubic feet in the extended-length, high-roof model. Engine options include a standard 3.5L V6 and an optional 3.5L EcoBoost twin-turbo V6, with rear-wheel drive as standard and all-wheel drive available as an option. When properly equipped, the vehicle can tow up to 6,900 pounds with the 3.5L EcoBoost engine, regular wheelbase and rear-wheel drive configuration. Maximum payload capacity varies by series, wheelbase and engine, reaching up to 5,103 pounds in the heavy-duty T-350HD configuration.

Ratings vary by series (T-150, T-250, T-350), wheelbase, roof height and equipment. Confirm exact payload and GVWR for any build with Ford’s commercial documentation.

Choosing a Roof Height

• Low roof: The best fit for parking garages and low loading bays, and for drivers who load from the curb.
• Medium roof: About 72 inches of interior height lets most technicians stand upright, which suits plumbers, electricians and installers working from the van.
• High roof: Roughly 81.5 inches of interior height supports walk-in mobile workshops and tall racking, and the extended-length body offers the most cargo volume in the lineup.

Winter Traction and Driver-Assist

• All-wheel drive: AWD is optional on Transit cargo vans, a useful choice for routes that run through snow, slush and icy overpasses.
• Standard safety technology: Standard features include automatic emergency braking with pre-collision assist and a lane-keeping system.
• Optional extras: A 360-degree camera is available, which helps in tight docks and crowded streets.
