Ford Transit Courier(2025-on) dimensions
Things are simple with the Ford E-Transit Courier – there is just the one shape and size on offer, as there is across the whole of the van’s range. There’s no longer or higher model here.
That said, the Courier has grown a lot since its predecessor, being longer, higher and wider than the old model, with a longer wheelbase too. This means more space inside for both cargo and crew.
There are some handy touches too, such as the load-through hatch under the passenger seat allowing you to slide longer items in. It might be the smallest panel van on sale in the UK but it is far from tiny and might just well carry what you need.
The single body style means it is a simple table of dimensions below. If you want more space you’ll just have to buy a bigger van.
| Length | 4,337mm |
| Width including door mirrors | 2,076mm |
| Width with door mirrors folded | 1,876mm |
| Height | 1,850mm |
| Wheelbase | 2,692mm |
| Turning circle (kerb to kerb) | 10.7m |
| Turning circle (wall to wall) | 11.1m |
The rear loading bay of the E-Transit Courier might be the same as its petrol and diesel equivalents, but it has a handy trick up its sleeve. The lack of engine under the bonnet means that some of that space can be given up for a little compartment to store a first aid kit and, more importantly, the charging cable.
This might not sound like much, but it means you don’t need to leave the cable sliding around in an empty loading bay, nor do you need to get your passenger to leave the van so you can get into the space under their seat. The cable is up front in an accessible spot near where it plugs into the van. You just need to remember to release the bonnet when you get out to plug it in.
The interior has a helpful load-through bulkhead, which is something that has often featured on larger vans but means you might well be able to get away without upgrading if you only need to carry a few longer items.
| Maximum load length at floor | 1,802mm |
| Maximum load at belt height | 1,562mm |
| Maximum load with load-through bulkhead | 2,661mm |
| Maximum load height | 1,262mm |
| Maximum load width | 1,535mm |
| Width between the wheel arches | 1,220mm |
| Side door opening height | 1,069mm |
| Side door opening width | 528mm |
| Standard load volume | 2.9m3 |
On the surface of things the Ford E-Transit Courier is a bit of anomaly as far as payload is concerned, being that it is the strongest model in the small van’s range in terms of the amount of weight it can carry. However, this only relates to the basic payload and all of the other models can come with a gross vehicle weight upgrade kit that boosts their ability that bit higher.
The electric model is also the weakest Transit Courier when it comes to its towing ability.
Ford E-Transit Courier payload
The E-Transit Courier’s payload might be impressive compared with the basic offering of its more conventional petrol- and diesel-powered siblings but the fact that you can’t get the upgraded gross vehicle weight is a shame. This is understandable due to the fact that the electric kit weighs more than an engine, though.
The payload tops out at 698kg for the Trend trim and 682kg for the Limited.
Ford E-Transit Courier towing capacity
You can tow with an E-Transit Courier – something you couldn’t always do in the past when it came to an electric van – but don’t go fitting a huge trailer. All versions are limited to just 750kg, and that’s for a trailer with a brake too. That said, the most that a diesel version can pull is 1,100kg and the petrol can’t take more than 1,000kg so it isn’t too far behind.
