New engineering excellence has pushed the company to claim driving of this big van is as easy as of a car. Interior of this vehicle is very much identical to all passengers’ cars of this manufacturer. Instruments you get in different trims make them good for particular purposes.
For the base level all three levels get same range of features and driver seat adjustment is only possible in Courier. For maximum storing spaces cabin has been designed according to demand. Charging points for 12 and 230 volts are also present. Refinement of engine is the most valuable attribute that keeps it quite close to a car like feel.

Driving a Transit is a nice experience and riding is smooth. Particularly when loaded you find the steering precise and consistent. Front visibility is excellent and this makes driving extremely easier.
Door mirrors do not allow any blind spot to be created. Rear view optional camera surely is a useful helper for the person on driving seat. The seats for passengers are comfortable but not supportive so this needs to be addressed timely.
For a good motorway speed 2.2 liter Transit turbo diesel engine with an output of 153bhp is right choice.
