From delivery routes and service calls to contractor upfits and passenger transportation, Ford Transit and E-Transit give Long Island businesses flexible ways to configure a van around the work.
Hempstead Ford offers commercial vehicle resources for businesses throughout Hempstead, Garden City, Freeport, Elmont, Floral Park and the surrounding New York Metro area. The Transit family includes cargo vans, passenger vans, chassis cab and cutaway configurations, plus the all-electric E-Transit.

Designed for businesses that need enclosed cargo space for tools, packages, equipment or inventory. Multiple roof heights and lengths help match the van to the route and upfit.
Available with seating configurations for up to 15 passengers, making it useful for shuttle, hospitality, nonprofit, education and group-transport applications.
The all-electric Transit option is available as a cargo van, cutaway and chassis cab for businesses whose routes and charging plans fit an electric commercial vehicle.
An open rear frame gives upfitters a foundation for specialized bodies and equipment tailored to the business.
A cab-forward commercial platform suited to shuttle, box-body and specialty applications where a dedicated rear body is required.
Hempstead Ford's commercial resources extend beyond vans to chassis cab, Super Duty commercial and other work-ready Ford configurations.

Ford offers factory packages and upfit-friendly Transit configurations for common commercial applications. Depending on body style and model year, available packages can include:
For specialized shelving, service bodies, partitions, racks or other equipment, confirm compatibility with the exact van and upfit before ordering.
Current 2026 Transit updates include standard SYNC 4 with a 12-inch center display, an 8-inch multifunction instrument display, a 5G modem, Ford Co-Pilot360 technology and a Vehicle Maintenance Monitor.
Ford also offers connected fleet-management and telematics tools for businesses that need to monitor vehicle use, location or preventive maintenance. Some services require activation, compatible connectivity or a paid subscription.
A gas-powered Transit can make sense for businesses that need longer or unpredictable routes, available AWD, higher maximum payload configurations or conventional towing capability.
E-Transit can be a compelling fit for predictable local routes, depot charging and businesses looking to electrify suitable parts of their fleet. Ford's current E-Transit lineup includes cargo van, cutaway and chassis cab configurations.
Choose a Cargo Van when enclosed equipment or freight space is the priority. Choose a Passenger Van when your business needs factory seating for customers, employees or groups.
The 2026 Transit Passenger Van can be configured for 2, 12 or 15 seats depending on the configuration, while Cargo Van models focus on maximizing usable work space behind the front row.
A work van earns its keep by staying available. Hempstead Ford's service department supports Ford owners with maintenance and repair resources, while the parts department can help source Ford parts and accessories.
