Ford has chosen the 2013 Birmingham CV show to reveal its final new Transit-branded commercial vehicle, which completes the "transformation" of the Blue Oval's range. The latest model, the Transit Courier van, is the entry-level offering, and it, along with the rest of the updated range, is expected to drive a strong predicted increase in sales by the year 2016.
According to the automaker's European vice president of Product Development, Barb Samardzich, “Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers. With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 per cent more than we sell today.”

Set to go on sale in the spring of 2014, the Courier will be powered by the familiar range of diesel and petrol engines. If gasoline is your thing, then the 99hp (100PS) 1.0-liter EcoBoost unit is available, but if it's all-out economy you're after, then either the 74hp or 94hp (75 or 95 PS) diesels will provide motivation.

Its odd that the Transit Courier has a better looking front than the B-Max.


The B-Max is supposed to be more stylish and more car-like than the Transit Courier, but for some reason, the front styling (design language) of the Transit Courier is the one that's closer to the new Fiesta's.
