What fits in the load area

Euro pallets (1,200 x 800mm)	3, in a single row
UK standard pallets (1,200 x 1,000mm)	2, in a single row
8 x 4 sheets (2,440 x 1,220mm)	Lie flat on the floor, between the wheel arches
Pipe, timber or ladders	Up to 2.4m on the floor

Worked out from the verified floor length 2,488mm, 1,392mm between the wheel arches. At the full Euro pallet count, the payload allows about 480kg per pallet. Counts use the width between the wheel arches for the whole floor, so they never over-count. Door openings are not in our data: check the rear and side door apertures before relying on a count.

Electric or diesel?

How the Ford E-Transit DCiV Trend 425L LWB / L3 H3 Standard Range 68kWh 135kW/184PS RWD compares with Ford Transit DCiV Trend 350L LWB / L3 H3 2.0L EcoBlue 130PS 6-speed manual FWD, the same body with the other powertrain, for a typical working day.

Miles a day: 100

Overnight chargingAt a depotAt the driver's homePublic chargers only

Workable, with planning

Range. 100 miles a day is close to a planning range of about 121 miles: workable, but cold or heavily loaded days may need a top-up.
Payload. The electric version carries 250kg more (1,444kg against 1,194kg).
Energy. Charging at a small-business depot costs about 11.2p a mile against 24.3p for diesel: roughly £3,275 a year less at 25,000 miles.
Price. The electric version lists for no more than the diesel after the £5,000 zero emission van and truck grant.

How this is worked out

Planning range is 70% of the official 173-mile WLTP figure, allowing for winter weather and a full load.
Energy use 0.393 kWh a mile: the usable battery divided by the official range.
Diesel 165.48p a litre excluding VAT (DESNZ, week of 2 November 2026); the Ford Transit DCiV Trend 350L LWB / L3 H3 2.0L EcoBlue 130PS 6-speed manual FWD's official 31mpg.
Electricity: 28.59p/kWh at a small-business depot (DESNZ, excluding VAT), 26.32p at home as the driver pays (Ofgem price cap), 65.83p on public rapid chargers (Zapmap, excluding VAT).
250 working days a year. List prices exclude VAT and options; running costs exclude servicing, insurance, tax and residual values.
