Robust Commercial Efficiency

The Ford Transit 290 LR P/V is a tough and dependable panel van built to handle demanding commercial use. With its long wheelbase and practical cargo space, it is designed to keep businesses moving efficiently. Powered by a strong 2.0 to 2.2 litre diesel engine producing between 229 and 385 Nm of torque, it delivers the ideal balance of pulling power and fuel economy for everyday work.

To support this reliability, this vehicle was brought in for a professional Diesel Particulate Filter clean on its Ford Transit 290 LR P/V Exhaust System ahead of an upcoming MOT. With no warning lights present, the service was carried out as a preventative solution to ensure the exhaust system remained clear, efficient, and ready for continued use.

Performance and Dimensions

Capable of reaching speeds of around 100 mph and delivering fuel economy between 38.7 and 42.2 mpg in urban driving, the Transit is built for both performance and practicality. It comes equipped with essential driver features such as ABS, air conditioning, and power steering for comfort during long working days. Measuring approximately 4,972 mm in length, 1,980 mm in width, and 2,131 mm in height, with a 2,933 mm wheelbase, it offers excellent load capacity while remaining easy to manoeuvre.

As part of the service, the DPF cleaning process removed built up soot and ash within the Ford Transit 290 LR P/V Exhaust, restoring proper exhaust flow and reducing internal restriction. This improved engine breathing, supported smoother turbo operation, and helped maintain consistent fuel efficiency for daily commercial demands.

Market Competition and Weight

With a maximum gross vehicle weight of around 2,900 kg, the Ford Transit 290 LR P/V competes with the likes of the Mercedes Benz Sprinter and Volkswagen Crafter. Its strong build quality and spacious interior make it a popular choice for businesses that rely on durability and consistent performance.
