Engines and technology

Common engines for Transit Custom L2H1:

• 2.0 EcoBlue diesel – for example 105 hp, 130 hp or 185 hp variants.
• Transmissions: manual or optional automatic (depending on version and year of manufacture).
• Euro 6 emissions and modern efficiency adaptation statistics.

Practical consumption

For diesel versions around 1:14 to 1:16 (7.0 – 7.3 l/100 km) is common depending on engine and load.

Actual consumption depends on usage profile, load and driving style.

Reliability and maintenance

Strong and robust construction for intensive work traffic.

Maintenance and parts widely available through large Ford network.

Distribution and EGR systems are occasionally mentioned as a point of attention for intensive urban use (not specific to Transit, but relevant for modern diesels). (General commercial vehicle knowledge)

Environmental zones and zero-emission zones

Diesel versions: access to low-emission zones depends on the Euro class (Euro 6 is usually temporarily permitted, but rules are becoming stricter per city).

Electric/modern hybrid variants: (where available) often unlimited access to zero-emission zones — growing importance for urban use.

(General environmental zone policy NL; specific rules per municipality.)
