ECONOLINE CRUSHED

摘要

One Ford is bringing the Transit to the U.S. To date, the One Ford convergence of the company's North American and European models has been restricted to smaller cars like the Fiesta and Focus, soon the Escape and Fusion/Mondeo, and one truck, the Transit Connect. Bigger trucks like the F-Series and the Econoline were market-specific. Econoline development has been stagnant for years, however, so Ford has announced it will build and sell its all-new, seventh-generation full-size Transit here beginning in calendar 2013. The Transit eventually will replace the E-Series van, as it's now formally known, but the two will be on sale side by side for a couple years. This includes commercial panel and passenger models of the Econoline and Transit with windows.
