FORD Transits were the first and second placed vans recent fuel economy test, with best-in-class fuel consumption and lowest cost per kilometre.

The 2.2-litre Ford Transit TDCi short and medium wheelbase vans were the most payload-efficient commercial vehicles in the competition, topping their class by returning best mpg and lowest cost per tonne mile. 

All vans were driven over the 650km route with half their permissible load to demonstrate the most fuel efficient transportation of goods. 

Carrying 840kg, the medium-wheelbase 140PS Ford Transit registered the lowest cost per kilometre.

Next best CV in the nine-strong category was the Ford Transit short wheelbase.  Both Ford CVs achieved independently verified best-in-class fuel consumption results – 45.2 and 47mpg for short and medium-wheelbase models respectively.
