Across hundreds of businesses and industries, you’ll find the Ford Transit hard at work carrying people and cargo. With three roof height and three body length options, the Ford Transit can be configured and adapted to meet the needs of any business. Nowhere is this more true than in the non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) sector. Sunset Vans is proud to offer custom wheelchair, gurney/stretcher, passenger, and fleet conversions.

Transit Key Features

• 5L PFDI V6 or 3.5L EcoBoost V6, 10-speed automatic transmission
• Side-Wind Stabilization
• Standard Lane-Keeping System
• Ford Telematics with standard modems in new Ford vehicles (optional)
• Intelligent All-Wheel Drive for handling and traction (optional)

The Ford Transit boasts between 100.5 cubic feet to 425.4 cubic feet of cargo space depending on configuration, and can easily store wheelchairs, gurneys and stretchers, as well as passengers. Its robust hauling power comes from a choice of either a 3.5L PFDI V6 (275 horsepower, 260 lb.ft. of torque) or twin-turbo 3.5L EcoBoost V6 (310 hp, 400 lb.ft. of torque). The Ford Transit also comes with a host of modern safety technologies; standard driver-assist features include Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Post-Collision Braking, Lane-Keeping System and auto high-beam headlamps.

The Ford Transit comes loaded with value and makes an excellent addition to any commercial fleet. Fleet owners can take advantage of Ford’s rebates and fleet incentives. Business operations that receive government funding are eligible for discounted vehicle pricing as a Government Price Concession (GPC). With optional Ford Telematics, fleet owners can monitor vehicles to track route and use patterns as well as performance metrics.

Powerful, spacious, and remarkably pleasant to drive—the Ford Transit represents the best in class as a commercial wheelchair van. New for 2022 is the Ford E-Transit, Ford’s first fully electric passenger van. With an expected range of 126 miles on a full charge, the E-Transit makes the perfect urban shuttler that will have no shortages of charging stations available. As it consumes no gas, the E-Transit also requires less scheduled maintenance and has significantly reduced costs of ownership. Combined with our meticulously engineered wheelchair conversions which offer plenty of customization, Sunset Vans is poised to bring the E-Transit to the mobility industry as the highest quality electric wheelchair van.

E-Transit Key Features

• 68kWh from 400V lithium-ion battery
• 266 hp RWD, 317 lb.-ft. of torque, 192 kW of power 
• 126 mile range
• 61 MPGe
• Pro Power OnBoard provides 2.4W of power for charging of tools and electronics (optional)
• Ford BlueOval Charging Network (63,000 charging plugs across US)
• Standard SYNC 4 with 12-inch touchscreen 
• Ford Pro E-Telematics free for first three years
• AC and DC fast-charging capabilities 

The all-electric Ford Transit provides cost savings in every facet of vehicle ownership. In terms of fuel, the E-Transit costs roughly $0.2950 per mile, while traditional combustion engine vehicles cost nearly double the rate at $0.5642 per mile. Fuel savings can be at least $4,700 over the first seven years. The lifetime ownership cost savings on gas alone are estimated at $6,000 to $10,000. With gas prices at an all time high, the savings benefits of a battery electric vehicle speaks for itself—not to mention the reduced carbon footprint on the environment. 

Sunset Van’s electric Ford Transit ADA wheelchair van represents decades of accessibility conversion expertise combined with Ford’s all-American manufacturing and innovation. As a custom EV solution, Sunset Van’s Ford E-Transit will be rigorously tested for safety and compliance so that individual consumers and businesses alike can drive with peace of mind. Owners can also take pride in zero emissions transportation, which also rewards up to $7,500 in federal tax credits in addition to Ford’s rebates and fleet incentives. Through year by year ownership, the E-transit reduces cost of ownership by up to $20,000 annually when compared to gas vehicles.  E-Transit owners can expect potential savings of $139,000 over 8 years when factoring in project yearly mileage, electricity cost projections, estimated scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, as well as the aforementioned Ford rebates and incentives.
