The new Ford Transit, due to go on sale in 2013

Ford will exhibit its widest and most high-tech line-up of commercial vehicles ever at the International CV Show 2013 at the NEC, Birmingham.

New models on show will include the all-new Transit, a full-size large van model that will compete directly with the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Renault Master and Fiat Ducato family and is due to be introduced late in 2013.

The 5,400sq ft Ford stand will have more than 15 vehicles on display, including the all-new Ford Transit Custom, the all-new Ford Transit Connect and the all-new Ford Transit – with more detail on the all-new Ford Transit Courier to come at the show.

Mark Ovenden, Ford Britain managing director, said:

“Following the award recognition of the new Transit Custom at the IAA CV Show in Hannover, Ford is continuing the product story by introducing its most exciting range of commercial vehicles ever at this year’s CV Show here in Britain.”

Production versions of the all-new Ford Transit Custom Sport Van and ECOnetic models will also be on display, alongside new Ford Fiesta Van and the award-winning Ford Ranger models completing the picture of Ford’s largest-ever commercial vehicle family.

Ford will also have representatives on hand to talk about its new Transit24 service offering, which I wrote about recently.
