edmunds TESTED
The Ford Transit is one of the most capable vehicles on the road today. Our test van came in the 14-passenger, heavy-duty, high-roof, extra-long, dual-rear-wheel configuration. That's a mouthful, but what it means is that it can hold maximum cargo, transport large groups with ease, and tow a big trailer. Under the hood is an impressive turbocharged 3.5-liter V6, and inside is the easy-to-use Sync infotainment system. There are some drawbacks, such as poor fuel economy and a less-than-ideal driving position, but the Transit is still a runaway class leader.

Nowhere to put your left foot!

2019 Ford Transit Passenger Van 150 XLT Medium Roof 3dr Van (3.7L 6cyl 6A)
The wheel well blocks where one would comfortably put their left foot while driving. The only way to extend your left leg is to put it right beside your right leg. I can not get comfortable driving this van! Also, the rear wheel drive is useless in snow, don't even try! So gutless my accelerator pedal broke off. The side door has dents in it because it's so hard to close properly. The … 2022 model has small cup holders and the back up camera is small and in the dashboard, making it very hard to see.
Fabulous car, fabulous dealer, Capitol , Automall,

2019 Ford Transit Passenger Van 150 XLT Medium Roof 3dr Van (3.7L 6cyl 6A)
Getting in the drivers seat it super easy and the controls as well as storage for everything are layout so well.
The handling is so nice I've had people go for a ride to believe it.
Go 150 miles and hop out still fresh.
Room is crazy huge every where and the doors make ot very easy to load.
I have 2 and after 60k miles still looks and drives like new.
Great van, but trouble with drive train

2019 Ford Transit Passenger Van 150 XL Low Roof 3dr Van w/Sliding Passenger Side Door (3.7L 6cyl 6A)
2019 Transit 150 van. 11,000 miles. Terrible vibration/ drone at highway speeds. Under warranty. Took to dealer near me drive shaft and damper installed per service bulletin from Ford. Still has vibration / drone. Will take it back again Monday.
I do like the van. It is everything I wanted except for the frustrating drive train issue. I hope I can get it fixed.
