Ford electric Supervan to tackle the Goodwood hill at Festival of Speed

The Goodwood Festival of Speed should see the debut of the latest-generation Ford Supervan.

It’s all being kept top secret for now, but we understand that Supervan 4 will be built around the forthcoming E-Transit, demonstrating that an electric van can be every bit as quick up the infamous Goodwood hill as anything with a petrol or diesel engine.

The van will not only highlight the capabilities of an electric van - albeit one that’s been very heavily modified - but will also demonstrate the Ford Pro division that offers significant benefits to business users.

Ford’s Supervan heritage runs right back to 1971 when the first one-off performance model appeared. Built around the chassis of the iconic Ford GT40 supercar, with the Transit body attached on top, it was powered by a 5.0-litre V8 engine producing well over 400hp.

Ford built another model in 1983, ingeniously called Supervan 2, based on the chassis of the Ford C100, a Group C sports-prototype racing car designed to tackle Le Mans. A 3.9-litre V8 boosted power to 590hp, with speeds approaching 180mph being possible.

For many, the most recent Supervan 3 remains the most iconic model. Built in 1994, it took the same C100 chassis as the second van and had a recently facelifted third-generation Transit bolted on. The engine was switched for a 3.5-litre Ford-Cosworth engine lifted straight from Formula One, producing a hefty 650hp.

Supervan 4 will eschew the petrol power of its forebears and use nothing but electricity to propel it up the hill. With the regular E-Transit able to accelerate from zero to 62mph in just seven seconds, the road-going version is already surprisingly potent.

Michelle Titmuss provided an exceptional level of service throughout the entire process. I initially contacted Michelle around a month ago after shortlisting several vehicles. She promptly provided the relevant quotations and presented the information clearly and professionally. As I was undecided about the most suitable model, I subsequently went back and forth with her through both telephone calls and email correspondence. Throughout every interaction, Michelle was consistently courteous, patient, knowledgeable, and highly professional. She demonstrated a genuine understanding of my requirements and made it clear that her priority was helping me make the right decision, rather than simply pushing for a sale. Her approach was reassuring, considered, and exceptionally helpful. Michelle is a credit to the company, and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking a professional, informed, and customer-focused service.
