The 2025 Ford E-Transit is an electric commercial van offered in multiple configurations and is available with numerous customizations for specific use cases. It doesn't have as much electric range as rival vans, but it makes a lot of sense for businesses that don't pile the miles on every day.Read full review

This year, Ford offers a new Wall Liner Kit for the E-Transit. It fully encloses the van's cargo area to protect against damage, add thermal insulation, and reduce noise while driving. In addition, the 2025 E-Transit adds new upfit packages for specific tradespeople. They include the Electrical Trade package, General Contractor Trade package and HVAC Trade package. Each one equips the E-Transit with shelves, bins, drawers and hooks designed specifically for those professions. Ford has made a few other changes to the 2025 E-Transit, such as eliminating the three-passenger seating option and making the mobile charging cord an option instead of standard equipment.
Competitors to consider
Other electric vans include the Ram ProMaster EV, Mercedes-Benz eSprinter, Chevrolet BrightDrop and Rivian Commercial Van. They all offer more range than the E-Transit (just barely for the Rivian), but several are substantially more expensive than the Ford. Before choosing one, be sure to read our Expert Rating of the Ford E-Transit below.
Edmunds Expert Rating
edmunds TESTED
by the Edmunds Experts
Average
7.6
out of 10
We drove the 2025 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.
Performance
7.5/10
How does the E-Transit Cargo Van drive? Unsurprisingly, the E-Transit drives like a van. Acceleration numbers aren't blistering, but a 0 to 60 mph run of 8.4 seconds is quick enough for a vehicle of this type. The more important figure is the E-Transit's 0 to 30 mph sprint of 3.7 seconds, perfect for driving in cities.
Braking is equally van-like, taking 140 feet to stop from 60 mph. For context, heavy-duty pickup trucks often require similar distances. Load the van with cargo, and braking will only get longer. Unlike some other EVs, there is no one-pedal driving function. The E-Transit wasn't built to be a handling all-star, but it is easy to drive and use on a daily basis thanks to its fully electric powertrain. Its smooth power delivery off the line and relaxed throttle response make it easy to accelerate and bring to controlled stops.
Comfort
6.5/10
How comfortable is the E-Transit Cargo Van? The E-Transit's ride quality is on the firmer side. As a result, the E-Transit can skip around over bumps and expansion joints when it's unladen. The seats aren't particularly supportive, but they offer adequate adjustability and can lie almost completely flat if you'd like to take a nap while the van is charging up.
The seats and the ride aren't the biggest knocks against the E-Transit when it comes to comfort. Simply put, it is loud inside if you don't order the Wall Liner Kit. Despite a whisper-quiet EV powertrain, there is essentially no sound-deadening material, and wind noise abounds inside. On top of that, the van's rear metal panels are thin and wobble around on the rear part of the E-Transit's frame, causing an absolute cacophony while you're driving on city streets. Earplugs might not be the worst idea.
Interior
7.5/10
How’s the interior? We try to avoid cliches, but function over form has never applied more literally than on the inside of the E-Transit. You get a center-mounted infotainment screen, an easy-to-read gauge cluster and a steering wheel. That's it, and for a van with a focus on work and not play, it strikes us as more than adequate. The driving position is a little too high and the pedals are awkwardly positioned, but those are the E-Transit's biggest faults in this area.
Other area of this cargo van demonstrate thoughtfulness. The LED lighting in the cargo hold is extremely bright and a small latch system holds open the rear doors for loading. There are also tie-downs for securing cargo, a tough floor that looks and feels as though it will withstand plenty of abuse, and a sliding side door for easy curbside loading. Visibility isn't as bad as you might think for a panel van thanks to a tall, upright windshield and large side mirrors.

How’s the tech? While creature comforts aren't really this van's first priority, there is some handy tech here. The Sync infotainment system was a cinch to use. It features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto that worked faultlessly in our time with the car. The screen is also snappy to respond and quick to boot up.
The E-Transit's roster of driver aids wouldn't bring much notice in a typical car, but options like a digital rearview mirror, surround-view camera, blind-spot warning and warning sensors all around are hugely helpful when driving a cargo van. They take a lot of stress out of the day-to-day grind these vans often face and are likely to be appreciated by E-Transit drivers.
Storage
9/10
How’s the storage? As you might imagine, storage is where this cargo van shines. Our test van was a low-roof, standard-length configuration. Frankly, that felt like a large enough space to live in for an extended amount of time, and with the option to add Pro Power Onboard — an option that turns the E-Transit into a massive power supply — we wouldn't be surprised if the E-Transit was soon picked up as the next big thing in the #vanlife movement.
Its maximum hauling rating is another strong point. In the configuration we had, the E-Transit can haul up to 3,249 pounds, which isn't much less than the gas-powered Transit range. Bear in mind, however, that driving around at max payload will negatively impact the E-Transit's already limited range.
Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below
Range and Efficiency
7.5/10
How are the range and efficiency? Ford says the E-Transit will get up to 159 miles of range on a single charge. While that was too short a distance for us to run our real-world Edmunds EV Range Test, we found over the course of two weeks that the E-Transit was slightly more efficient than that number suggests. Granted, we did drive it around with almost no payload and in Eco mode for most of our use. Ford says the E-Transit can charge at a max power of 176 kW.
Value
7.5/10
Is the E-Transit Cargo Van a good value? A base E-Transit costs a few thousand more than a gas-powered Transit of the same size. But when you consider the lower operating costs inherent in an EV and factor in Ford's excellent fleet-vehicle support program, Ford Pro, the E-Transit is a solid value proposition.
Ford's warranty coverage for the E-Transit is average for the segment. Federal regulation mandates EV manufacturers cover the battery for at least eight years or 100,000 miles. And Ford offers three years/36,000 miles of basic maintenance, five years/60,000 miles of roadside assistance, and a five-year/unlimited mile warranty for rust on top of that.
Wildcard
7/10
The E-Transit isn't going to win any awards for the way it handles, but it is a completely new take on Ford's storied Transit family of vehicles. Those who use their vans every day will appreciate its cavernous space and innovative features that make hauling gear, flowers, food or whatever else a cinch. If the Transit had more range, it would be even more appealing, but for now it proves that EVs can be used as cargo vans too.
Which E-Transit Cargo Van does Edmunds recommend?
Since the E-Transit Cargo Van comes one way, it serves as a blank canvas upon which you can build the commercial electric vehicle of your dreams. The sweet spot for range, cargo volume and payload capacity is the Medium Roof Long version. Critical options include anything that improves visibility, such as the surround-view camera system; digital rearview mirror; and front, side and rear parking sensors.
2022 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van 350 Medium Roof 3dr Van w/148" WB (electric DD)
I bought this on the recommendation of a fellow contractor. So far I have put about 100 miles on the vehicle.
Speed and acceleration are good. Without a load. I plan to haul 1000 to 1500lbs of hardwood flooring equipment, we shall see how the battery deals with that. The vehicle loses a lot of momentum when you take your foot off the accelator as it captures energy with the … transmission. It's pretty fun to go down a big hill and see your battery go up though!
Ford pass software didnt work. Called Ford tech support and they helped me authenticate the vehicle.
Android auto worked sporadically before I got the fordpass software to work and only if you turn off your phones wifi connection to the vehicle. After authenticating the Ford software I had some trouble getting Android auto to pair with the vehicle.
Seats are comfy, vehicle is pretty loud without a bulkhead/partition. I will be adding that shortly.
The salesman refused to tell me how long it takes to charge on 110v. The answer is 98 HOURS. Realistically you must charge on a 220 plug. I charged from 60% to 95% in about four hours. The mobile 220 charger that comes with the vehicle is capable of charging an empty battery in about 12 hours. Read the manual on battery charging! It's recommended to not charge to 100% and to schedule a couple hour charge delay after getting home so that the battery can cool prior to charging.
I anticipate significant tax savings based on the section 179 depreciation deduction. My contractor friend estimates the electricity to operate the vehicle costs about $100 per month! As of 2nd quarter 2022 it appears there is also a $7500 federal tax credit. It will phase out so check with your accountant.

2023 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van 350 Medium Roof 3dr Van w/148" WB (electric DD)
Vehicle drives and handles really well when temperatures are in the 60s or higher.
Would not recommend buying new. Van lost over $22,000 in value in the first 10 months / 5000 miles.
Purchase price of $60,500 in oct 2022.
Trade in valued at $36-$38k in aug 2023.
Range is about 80 miles in winter as the battery powered heater struggles to heat the interior.
Another thing that I don’t see … talked about much with electric cars is cold weather driving. Without the radiant heat generated by a gas powered engine, the frame & body stay cold, all the time. This may seem insignificant to some but in the winter it feels like you just got in a cold car, even after you’ve driven 80 miles. Road slush and snow sticks to the cold frame and body when driving in cold conditions& sometimes packs wheel wells with slush / snow.

2023 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van 350 High Roof 3dr Ext Van w/148" WB (electric DD)
2023 E-Transit extra long high roof. Wall panels and padded floor pre-installed. This is a big empty box without a padded bulkhead. Noisier than my traded Tundra! I love peace inside my vehicle. But this is a work van. It is extremely comfortable. I use Eco mode. I hit L when approaching a light or travelling downhill. It works exactly like the Tesla Model S Plaid Dual Motor. Just … beautiful and safe. Visibility is great. Rear camera and screen are great. Controls are convenient. This is over 6,000 lbs so I do not expect it to fly off the line like the Plaid. Days to full charge of 125 miles on regular outlet at home. My fast Level 2 will be installed tomorrow. $500 parts and labor. Ford gives us the 2 plugs, slow and fast with the charging cord. I am buying the rest. This was a huge decision for me. Gas goes from $3.40 to $4.00 depending on market price. I pay 11¢ per kwh at my electric co-op. I had 2 big Mercedes Sprinters. Big dollars injector problems and tons of other problems. I do not have a business. I just love space. My wife thoroughly enjoys it as well. This is our new daily driver. We have a C-Max Energi plugin getting 13 miles on a charge and 43.3 mpg. We love that. There are no flaws in the build. Everything works great. Navigation is great. No ProPower, but that's okay. I am happy that Ford made an affordable big van in electric. I am hoping to get a little more range with my excellent driving habits. Thank you for your article! Be happy!

125000 miles. 3rd official owner. 2nd owner only had it for 30 days. After ten days had to have it towed. It's been in the shop 4 days now with very few EV specialists around. No idea when I'll see it again. So far it's been a nightmare. Still somewhat hopeful it can redeem itself.
