The latest commercial vehicle to join Ford's award-winning range, is on display and available to test drive at Jennings Ford Transit Centres based in Middlesbrough and Gateshead.
Officially unveiled at last year’s Frankfurt Motor Show, the latest revised Transit Tourneo Custom, which is the ideal model for business or leisure, is available at the group’s Cargo Fleet Lane dealership in Middlesbrough, and the Eslington Park site in Gateshead.
Distinguished by its bold new front-end design with five-bar chrome grille, the new Tourneo Custom has been comprehensively re-engineered to provide superior levels of refinement and sophistication, including high-quality trim materials, improved comfort and noise levels, and the latest Ford passenger car technologies.
Alan Bailes, group commercial manager, based at Jennings Ford Transit Centre in Teesside, said; “We’re delighted to be able to offer the new Transit Tourneo Custom model, which is the second new commercial model, following the new Transit Custom, to be launched by Ford this year.
“The latest model offers a bold exterior styling and a completely new premium interior with the added practicality of adaptable seating layouts as a result of Ford’s new Flexible Rear Seats, which offers up to 30 different seating arrangements.
“Customers can also take advantage of a range of technologies, including Intelligent Speed Limiter and SYNC3 connectivity.
The new Tourneo Custom continues to offer both eight or nine-seat configurations in a variety of short wheelbase and long wheelbase lengths, and comes in five variants including the Shuttle Bus, Zetec, Titanium, Titanium X and Sport.
The latest model also features Ford’s state-of-theart 2.0-litre EcoBlue diesel engine, with a choice of 105 PS, 130 PS and 170 PS power ratings.
Those seeking the ultimate specification, can take advantage of the Titanium X model, which comes with leather trim, SYNC 3 with satellite navigation and rear view camera, and HID (High Intensity Discharge) Xenon headlamps as standard.
While the Sport series is ideal for those looking for a more dynamic exterior appearance and a stylish sports interior. The model combines the 170 PS engine option, a full exterior body kit with twin bonnet stripes and unique 17-inch alloy wheels, alongside partial leather interior.
Customers visiting Jennings Ford Transit Centres can also take advantage of the bold new facelifted Transit Custom model.
In addition to a striking new look, the 2018 Transit Custom has been transformed with an all-new cabin and a host of new technology.
Other models on display and available to test drive at Jennings Ford Transit Centre include the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Transit Van, Transit mini-bus, Transit Tipper, Transit Chassis Cab, and 4×4 Ranger.
Both Transit Centres also offer a range of aftersales facilities, including service, MOT, accident repair, and genuine parts and accessories.
