Custom Ford Transit Heading to 2014 SEMA Show

Ford is planning to bring 5 custom Ford Transits to the 2014 SEMA Show. Ford is aiming to show off the versatility of the platform.



The first is the Formula DRIFT Transit which will be used at the series' events next year as a track safety and support vehicle.



Second is the Vegas Off-Road Experience Transit that will be involved in the Vegas Off-Road Experience in South Boulder City, Nevada. This model is customized by the VORE group, which gave the Transit an off-road theme that will take guests around the facility in luxury.

3dCarbon has made a luxury Ford Transit with a long-wheelbase, medium-roof model featuring a solid hickory wood floor and four reclining captain's chairs with heating, cooling and massage function; they also have power headrests. There is also a Business Class Transit created by Detroit Custom Coach of Oak Park, Michigan. That one even includes a cocktail station!

Finally there is a Galpin Auto SPorts Transit Skyliner. This one is customized to be a limousine or high-end transportation services in addition to commercial fleets, shuttle providers and small-business owners.

“Ford Transit vans and passenger wagons are designed to be upfit-ready so customers have an easier time customizing the vehicle to work best for them,” said Yaroslav Hetman, brand manager for Ford Transit, Transit Connect and E-Series. “We are very excited about what our SEMA customizers have done with these vans. They preview the first of what is expected to be a renaissance in custom vans, led by the all-new Ford Transit.”
