The E-Transit is an interesting alternative to its gas-powered sibling. Its EPA-estimated range of 126 miles isn't stellar and that limits this van to use in cities. Luckily, it fills that role quite well, and features including its massive cargo hold and an option that will let you charge tools, plus its zero learning curve, make it an even more attractive proposition. If you own a flower shop, a catering business, or make multiple trips on a usual workday in urban environments, the E-Transit makes a lot of sense. Just be sure to charge it up every night before you go home.

According to GeoTab’s data, if the observed degradation rates are maintained, the vast majority of batteries will outlast the usable life of the vehicle.
Estimated battery warranty remaining is 6 years or 72,000 miles for this car.Warranty remaining value is based on the vehicle year, and on driving 14,000 miles per year. Confirm exact warranty coverage for each vehicle with the dealers and the manufacturer before purchasing.

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!
After 10 days had it towed. No transmission

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.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2023 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van, so we've included reviews for other years of the E-Transit Cargo Van since its last redesign.
