The comparison shows that the 2021 Transit offers more available engine power and infotainment features compared to the rivaling 2021 Ram ProMaster cargo van. A closer look at the Transit’s highlights only confirms its market superiority.
Most 2021 Transit vans are powered by the standard 3.5-liter PFDi V6 with 275 horsepower and 262 pound-feet of torque on tap. There’s also an optional 3.5-liter EcoBoost® rated for up to 310 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque on RWD models. Intelligent All-Wheel Drive is also optional and offers up to 5 available drive modes for confident driving over muddy or slippery surfaces so you can go wherever you’re needed.
New this year, the 2021 Transit has been enhanced to offer easier access to the cargo area. The newly standard electronic parking brake makes for a 50% wider aisle clearing between the front seats than in the outgoing model. The 2021 Transit’s Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) has also increased to 11,000 pounds, which makes for a higher maximum payload capacity. New color options Abyss Gray, Avalanche, and Carbonized Gray give businesses even more opportunity to match their new Transit to their unique brand.
