    A very interesting review Tish. It's great to see a commercial vehicle review along side it's van based car stablemate. A lot of van based cars are a tad utilitarian so this is fine for the Tourneo, what is nice to see though is the rear window open (you can see the switch at 10:55). On some van based cars they might have a small opening clip at the back of the window or may be fixed. I think it's a great idea to test some more commercial vehicles as well as cars that may be based on them. Many thanks for sharing.

    Greetings from the west coast of Canada. Thanks for the review. A 1973 light-blue Ford Courier pickup -- really a Mazda -- was my first vehicle, and many decades later I'm driving a similar-colour '23 Chevy Bolt euv (fully-electric). The Courier Tourneo ev looks great to me, and I wish we got it here.

    I love my Transit Connect Short Wheel Base 5-passenger (in USA) that is now about 10 years old--si sad to hear in US it's being dropped. I haul stuff, not people, but love it handles like a car. So glad to see a new version that might get to the US when I'm ready for a replacement--I like the 2 tone, but it looks to me to have less room than the TC, and cheaper interior--but I like that back stash compartment! I'm not a fan of over inflated hoods, but if that means it's easier to get to the battery, that's a win!

    The Tourneo looks rather good. I got fed up with my Caddy and those stupid speed restrictions, this looks like a possible answer although I think that small engine might make driving quite hard work. This is worth looking into though. An excellent review as always Trish 👍

    @jondonahue7163 Před 4 měsíci

    Here in Tombstone, Arizona, I have a 2013 Ford Transit Connect van. In the states, that year had high roof, which sdly went away in 2014. Mine is a delight. Perfect around town for shopping, and then for camping way, way offroad. It goes anywhere except sand... but I carry a shovel to dig it out. On trips, I sleep in it on the street very comfortably, no problems with the police or criminals, and stay in a hotel now and then to wash up.
    Good video, but don't think I'll trade mine in on this new one. I like the design of mine better. Simpler controls, far less electronics. And mine is one of the last vehicles that doesn't continually pester you to put on a seatbelt. If I ran Ford, I'd put in back into production with only one change -- adding a steel skidplate under the front bumper. Sure wanted that going up a truly rocky bumpy road to nearby China Camp, hign up in the Dragoon Montains where Cochise and Geronimo fought the US Cavalry for so many years...

  • @chryschrysostomou5392

    Thank you for your review Tish. On the design, I think it has far too long a 'nose'. I think engine wise, I would think long and hard, if a 1.0 litre would be capable of giving a long, high-mileage service, for a commercial vehicle.

    The Tourneo almost gets it right. The back seat accommodation as come up as lacking a few amenities, storage being a letdown. The front seat passenger and driver fair better, especially as the overhead storage bin is included. The unusually large headroom creates an opportunity for the designer to include some extra storage bins for the rear seat passengers. You can never have too much storage !!

    The last Transit courier was much better looking. You were right about Transit do Tish. It used to be just the Ford Transit and then Ford decided to go and make everything more complicated and expand it. The courier used to be a stand alone model. Ford will need a new smaller van now to compete with the Peugeot bibber and whatever the small Citroen van is are maybe they will just not bother at all now.
    I disagree about a dull dash in a van Tish. The last Transit Couriet basically had the Firsta dash in it so plenty stylish and Renault van dash have been very stylish too. The last Transit pre revamp before the new one had a very stylish dash too. I woukd still not buy a big Transit do. A VW Transporter is a much nicer van to be in.

    Towing is still too little. The Berlingo has at least 1500kg with the Diesel. My niece has one and it has three single seats in the back with 3 times isofix. And she uses the car to pull the caravan weighing 1200kgs.

  • @lego4virgo

    I think the Torneo Courier could find a place in the U.S. - use either the 1.5L 3cyl or the 2.0 4cyl. If the chassis allows, the PHEV engine/drivetrain. Does need a larger door card and hopefully not too much plasticky stuff.

    That rear seat stops short of the doors, hence the lack of width. We had a current model Berlingo until recently, it had three full rear seats, which obviously is a must in such a roomy, versatile family car. I'd still take a Berlingo over this.

    There were supposed to be full BEV versions of all these Transits. But Ford just don't have the technical and manufacturing capabilities to build them. They were badly caught with their pants down. It's the same for the Ford passenger vehicles, they were supposed to announce them Q12023 for delivery Q3, but they failed miserably. Not quite as bad as Toyota, but not far behind.

    To treat this vehicle as a commercial vehicle only would show that Fords marketing department is braindead, it should be a full-on everyday model for the masses, a totally practical car for everyday use not a show pony to impress one's neighbors like the normal useless sedan.

    My experience with new fords is to advise people not to buy them, I have driven fords for years and they were reliable, but in recent years I have found them good for one thing and that's for keeping the local garages in business.
