Ford has started deliveries of the first Transit Courier and Tourneo Courier units produced at the Ford Otosan factory in Craiova. The first trains and trailers have been loaded and will reach customers in Europe and Turkey.

“We are proud that the factory in Craiova has started delivering the first units of the new models. We have high hopes for the Transit Courier, which we are sure will be one of the engines of the national economy in the years to come, but also for the Tourneo Courier, a versatile, compact model adapted to both business and family needs,” stated Roxana Capătă, Managing Director, Ford Romania Services.

The new models of the Courier range, as well as the Ford Puma SUV, will receive electric versions, which will go into production in Craiova in 2024.

Tourneo Courier is offered in only one petrol engine version – 1.0 EcoBoost with 125 hp, available with both 6-speed manual transmission and 7-speed automatic transmission.

The Transit Courier, in the Trend trim, with the 100 HP 1.0 EcoBoost engine, with a 6-speed manual transmission has a special launch price in Romania of 15,550 euros without VAT.
