The E-Transit Custom is the first of four all-electric commercial vehicles introduced by Ford Pro, the automaker’s vehicle services and distribution arm, by 2024. The E-Transit Custom is designed to “help businesses across the region to effortlessly make the change to electrified vehicles,” according to Ford.
