Ford Transit Courier Van Leasing Deals

The Ford Transit Courier has received a significant update, making it an even more appealing option in the compact van market. As the smallest member of the Ford Transit lineup, it offers impressive features in a small footprint, perfect for those needing both agility and practicality.

One of the key improvements is the enhanced load space, which has increased from 2.3 to 2.9 cubic metres, providing more usable cargo capacity. This expansion allows the Transit Courier to accommodate two Euro pallets at floor level—a remarkable achievement for a van of its size.

Along with the increased cargo volume, Ford has also boosted the payload capacity. The maximum payload has risen from 595kg to an impressive 820kg, making the updated Transit Courier a highly efficient and capable choice for a range of business needs.

These are just a few of the key upgrades Ford has made, but there’s much more to discover. Let’s explore the other enhancements that make the new Transit Courier stand out even further.

Why the Ford Transit Courier for Leasing?

More on Cargo Space

The updated Ford Transit Courier offers more than just a slight increase in cargo space. The load length has been extended from 1620 mm to an impressive 1800 mm, providing much more room to accommodate larger items. The height of the cargo area stands at 1.25 metres, allowing for taller goods to be transported with ease. Another standout feature is the 1.22-metre width between the wheel arches, which maximises the van’s usability by ensuring that even wider loads can fit without compromise.

For those needing to transport extra-long items such as ladders, scaffolding, or piping, Ford has an optional load-through bulkhead. This feature allows you to carry items up to 2.6 metres in length, extending from the rear doors under the passenger seat.

Powertrain Options for Every Journey

Most van models offer a variety of petrol and diesel engines, and the Ford Transit Courier is no exception. However, in Spring 2025, Ford is taking a significant step forward by adding an all-electric powertrain to the lineup with the introduction of the E-Transit Courier. This new electric option will join the existing petrol and diesel variants, giving businesses even more flexibility to choose the perfect compact van that fits their exact operational needs.

With three powertrain options—all-electric, EcoBoost petrol, and Ecoblue diesel—Ford ensures the Transit Courier caters to a wide range of preferences. This expanded range offers businesses the opportunity to make more eco-friendly choices without compromising on performance or practicality.

How to Pick the Powertrain For Your Needs

When choosing to lease a Ford Transit Courier, selecting the right engine is key to maximising efficiency, cost savings, and performance based on your business requirements. But how do you know which engine is best for you?

  • All-Electric Ford E-Transit Courier: Best for urban businesses, last-mile delivery, or operations within low-emission zones (LEZs) or cities with strict environmental regulations. If your business involves frequent short trips or you operate in areas like central London, where emissions restrictions and congestion charges apply, the electric model is ideal.
  • Ford Transit Courier with EcoBoost Petrol: Best for businesses needing flexibility between urban and short regional drives. The 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine provides a great balance of power, efficiency, and flexibility. It’s ideal for businesses that need a van for urban deliveries but occasionally travel longer distances on highways.
  • Ford Transit Courier with EcoBlue Diesel: Best for high-mileage users, rural deliveries, or businesses carrying heavier payloads. The 1.5-litre EcoBlue diesel engine is ideal for businesses that regularly transport goods over longer distances or need a higher payload capacity. With longer legs and superior fuel efficiency on motorways and rural roads, it’s perfect for couriers, tradespeople, or businesses operating outside of dense urban areas.

Four Trim Levels to Choose From

When choosing the right van for your business, it’s easy to overlook the human element—the driver. After all, the van is only as effective as the person behind the wheel. Ensuring comfort, convenience, and safety for the driver is just as important as the van’s performance.

The all-new Transit Courier offers four distinct trim levels, providing a surprisingly diverse range of options for a compact van: Leader, Trend, Limited, and Active. Each trim level caters to different needs, allowing you to select the perfect combination of features for both your business and your driver.

The Leader trim provides all the essential tools to get the job done efficiently, making it a great starting point for businesses looking for a no-frills, functional van. It comes equipped with an 8” SYNC 4 touchscreen featuring voice-operated systems, Bluetooth®, and smartphone mirroring, ensuring connectivity on the go. The Leader also includes practical features like a full bulkhead and adjustable driver and passenger seats. In terms of safety, it stands out with Ford’s Co-Pilot 360 Assist system, which offers Pre-Collision Assist, Lane-Keeping Aid, and Adaptive Cruise Control with an adjustable speed limiter—great for those needing reliable, tech-savvy safety features.

Stepping up to the Trend trim adds a layer of comfort and convenience not available in the Leader. In addition to the Leader’s features, the Trend includes front fog lamps, which enhance visibility, and a single sliding load door for easier access to the cargo area. Inside, the driver benefits from added comfort with a lumbar support seat and armrest, plus air conditioning, a heated windshield, and heated front seats, making the Trend ideal for those prioritising comfort during long journeys or in colder climates.

The Limited trim brings extra sophistication and refined details to the Transit Custom lineup. Building on the Trend features, it adds 16” alloy wheels, enhancing the van’s appearance, along with body-coloured door handles and black painted mirrors for a more polished look. Parking is made easier with a rear-view camera and front parking aid. The Limited also offers additional convenience through features like keyless start, wireless phone charging, and electronic automatic temperature control. A Sensico-wrapped steering wheel and one-touch up/down front windows contribute to the more premium feel of this trim, appealing to those looking for a touch of luxury in their work van.

For those seeking style and personality, the Active trim goes beyond functionality and adds a distinctive, rugged look. With 17” Active Design alloy wheels, roof rails, skid plates, and wheel arch mouldings, this trim is designed to impress. It retains the parking aids and comfort features from the Limited trim, such as keyless start and one-touch windows, while offering exclusive exterior details like a honeycomb grille. The Active trim is perfect for those who want their van to stand out, combining practicality with a bold design.
