The Ford Transit continues its reign as the top-selling full-size van in the United States, showcasing a robust 22 percent sales increase in Q4 2024. This remarkable growth, outpacing the segment average, solidifies the Transit’s position as a market leader, contributing to a 15 percent increase in year-to-date sales. The Transit’s dominance, with 35,103 units sold in Q4, reflects its strong appeal among commercial and passenger van buyers.
Ford’s strategic focus on the Transit has paid off, as it commands a 39 percent segment share, representing nearly two-fifths of all full-size van sales. When combined with the Ford E-Series, Ford’s total van sales account for a commanding 52 percent of the market. This dominant performance underscores Ford’s commitment to providing reliable and versatile vans that meet the diverse needs of its customers. The Transit’s consistent growth highlights its adaptability and enduring popularity in a competitive market.
The Transit’s success contrasts sharply with GM’s aging van lineup, the Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana, which have been in production since the 1990s. While these GM models saw a sales increase in Q4, they still lag significantly behind the Transit. Ford’s modern and adaptable Transit platform continues to outshine its competitors, demonstrating the importance of continuous innovation and customer-centric design. The Transit’s strong performance is a major asset to Ford’s commercial business, Ford Pro.
Ford offers the Transit in a variety of configurations, including Cargo, Passenger, and Cutaway models, catering to a wide range of applications. The Transit’s adaptability and reliability have made it a preferred choice for businesses and individuals alike. With production of the 2025 Ford Transit underway, Ford is poised to maintain its leadership in the full-size van segment, continuing to deliver high-quality and versatile vehicles to its customers.
