Ford enriches its E-Transit Custom utility range with an all-wheel-drive version for greater versatility.
Ford has announced the arrival of a new all-wheel-drive (AWD) version of its electric utility vehicle E-Transit Custom. This new model will enhance the existing range by offering a solution tailored for professionals operating under challenging driving conditions, particularly on slippery surfaces like ice or mud.
This all-wheel drive system is based on a dual motor technology. In addition to the existing rear propulsion unit, Ford adds an additional electric motor at the front. This configuration allows for optimized torque delivery to all four wheels, thus improving traction, stability, and safety, no matter the road conditions.
The electric magic happens at Ford
Designed to adapt to both professional and leisure uses, this AWD version will be available in spring 2026. It will particularly target users located in mountainous or northern areas, where climatic conditions require enhanced traction performance.

At the same time, the manufacturer will also launch an all-wheel drive version of its E-Tourneo Custom model, dedicated to passenger transport. This variant will allow for the same all-terrain capabilities for a clientele focused on collective or family mobility.
The development of this new all-wheel drive system aligns with Ford Pro’s broader strategy, which aims to provide high-performance electric utility vehicles suitable for all uses. The group intends to support professionals’ energy transition while meeting the growing demands for versatility and safety.
Complete technical specifications, as well as details on pricing and available options for these new AWD versions, will be unveiled by Ford Pro as their commercialization approaches, expected in less than a year.
