    Ford Transit Custom 2021

    FROM
    $33,660

    The 2021 Ford Transit Custom range of configurations is currently priced from $32,990.

    Our most recent review of the 2021 Ford Transit Custom resulted in a score of 7.8 out of 10 for that particular example.

    Carsguide Contributing Journalist Marcus Craft had this to say at the time: The Ford Transit Custom Sport 320S has a rock-solid reputation as a work vehicle, and in Sport guise it is even better. No wonder it won our TradieGuide Van of the Year.

    This is what Marcus Craft liked most about this particular version of the Ford Transit Custom: Nice to drive, Versatile load space, Plenty of driver-assist tech

    Ford Transit Custom 2021 FAQs

    Is it possible to get an AWD version of the 2021 Ford Transit Custom?

    There is, indeed, an all-wheel-drive version of the current-model Ford Transit in some parts of the world, but sadly for those with a specific set of needs, it isn’t coming to Australia. Fundamentally, the sales volumes wouldn’t justify Ford’s investment in technical training and spare parts required to get the AWD Transit into showrooms here.

    On the face of it, Australian buyers looking for an all-wheel-drive commercial vehicle are vastly more attracted to vehicles like Ford’s own Ranger dual-cab utility. And that shouldn’t really come as a surprise, either; local buyers have always been more drawn to conventional utilities than they have vans. That’s the complete reversal of how the European market sees things, but that’s cultural difference for you.

    Meantime, I can see why some people would like an AWD Transit. For towing a tradie trailer while keeping your other gear safe and having the ability to get on and off greasy building sites, a van like a Transit with four-wheel-drive would take some beating. But for now, for Australia, it’s officially a no from Ford.
