When can we expect so see a van with AWD here? I really like Tansit custom. I want to use it for travelling, I would prefer an AWD model so it could handle some gravel easily.
Vineet Joshi Specifications are normally different in each country. We only get a Diesel engine here in Australia, where America gets a petrol engine as an option. I can’t imagine we will see it with AWD.
The quick response is we don't have the population base to make the the sales viable that's Australia's biggest problem with a lot of commodities that can be bought overseas. That's the price we pay for a great lifestyle.
As a bus enthusiast myself I’ve always loved these Ford minibuses, I’ve never ridden on a Ford Transit bus before but they’re quite nice looking buses. I would love to have a bus like this of my own one day for me to drive around in.
@@WebbyOnCars Indeed it is, have you seen any minibuses/vans that were on city bus routes before? I have and it was a Stagecoach Mercedes Benz Sprinter van in the new 2020 Stagecoach livery, but it was not in service at the time so it must’ve been heading to the depot or the bus station.
Looks good about time Australia started getting some thing different in the vans and dare I say mini bus type thingies. Thingies is a technical term only used by insiders, see what a rev head I am................. Now for a van or minibus for all those soccer mums out there. Car sales has just tipped me off about the new 2020 transit 12 seater 'bus' do you have any of those in yet? If so would love a sneak peak through one of those. You never know we might see Vic out of the Covid blues yet. What do you think are you going to be open before christmas?
We don’t keep the 12 seater van in stock due to low demand, but it sounds like a good idea. The current Transit Custom is a really good van and very popular with our customers too. At this stage I believe we will be reopening on 19th October
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it! I guess it depends what type of access you need to the cargo area. I can’t find any exact measurements as to how high the tailgate opens, however from images I’ve seen it appears to open about 4 inches higher than the roof of the van. Sorry for being a bit vague but I hope that helps
@@reinoutbaele5875 I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with these options. we have different models here in Australia. Do you mean the length of the van on the outside or the cargo area inside?
Webby On Cars Thank you for your reply. When you configure a new van like the one in the video you get the option to choose the basic dimensions (L1/H1- Length 1/Height 1) or choose for a longer or higher version L2/L3/H2. This makes the whole van longer and higher and hereby also the loading capacity. This is why vans like these are often advertised as “Ford Transit Custom 2020 L2H1 170HP”.
