Ford has cut the price of its Transit van to VND845 million (US$37,000) with effect from January 18.

The vehicle has for long been the leader in the 16-seat commercial van segment.

The US company has made a lot of changes, with the new Transit having a sliding door that opens all the way and the option of a power sliding door.

The dashboard has been redesigned with high-quality materials used in the centre console and a 10-inch LCD touchscreen.

The company continues to offer an extended warranty plan of three years or 200,000km.

It also provides transport companies with a software solution called passenger transportation business management (Upfleet).

This integrated commercial fleet and order management technology helps reduce vehicle idle time and increase efficiency and productivity.

By 2022 business clients can schedule their repair or maintenance appointment using an online booking service. — VNS
