The Transit Custom PHEV, is designed to have a maximum electric range of 31 miles, a figure that rises to 310 miles thanks to the award-winning 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine featuring as a range extender. The EcoBoost unit does not directly drive the wheels, it will solely help keep the Transit’s batteries charged, and leave the wheel turning to the electric motor. • Best small vans on sale 2017 Ford has released very little information regarding performance of the Transit Custom range extender van, but we do know that the water-cooled lithium ion battery pack is located under the floor, ensuring the load bay retains the same dimensions as internal combustion-engined version. On top of this, the design and manufacture of the first 20 vans has been a collaboration between Ford, Prodrive Advanced Technology, Revolve Technologies, and Bosch, with manufacturing taking place here in the UK. Additionally, it is also the first plug-in hybrid commercial vehicle a volume manufacturer. The fate of the 20 vans is to partake in a 12-month trial, which is scheduled to begin this December, and is supported by a £4.7 million grant from the UK Government-funded Advanced Propulsion Centre. Ford and the other organisations involved (ranging from DPD to the Metropolitan Police) will be subjecting the Transits to the day-to-day stresses of doing business in London. The primary aim of this test, is to assess the impact hybrid commercial vehicles can have an pollution in city environments. To do this, the vans will be fitted with advanced real-time telematics which will allow people such as the Department for Transport (who will be testing three vehicles), to analyse the information and use the findings to support programmes such as LoCITY – an industry led programme which assists the freight and fleet sectors improve air quality. Another key aspect of the trail is that the Transits will also feature something called geofencing technology. What this will do is allow the characteristics of the vehicle to be modified automatically based on its location. Meaning, if you are about to drive into a low emission zone, pure electric mode could be activated without having to hunt through a labyrinth of settings. With approximately 280,000 commercial journeys made in London on a typical working day, the potential to reduce emissions with this tech is huge, especially when you consider the majority of commercial vehicles are diesels. Do you think projects like this are enough to ensure a greener future for cities? Let us know in the comments below...

Ford na veletrhu užitkových automobilů v britském Birminghamu představil novou Fiestu Van a pokročilé technologie z oblasti konektivity. Obě novinky by měly dále upevnit vedoucí postavení značky Ford na evropském trhu užitkových vozů.

S modelem Fiesta Van se Ford opět vrací do třídy městských rozvážkových automobilů založených na osobních modelech segmentu B. Fiesta Van se v nabídce zařadí po bok nejnovější generace modelů Ford Transit, k nimž patří také nový Transit Custom, Transit Connect a Transit Courier.

Ford zároveň oznámil, že první dva užitkové modely z jeho evropské nabídky budou k dispozici se zabudovaným modemem FordPass Connect, který provozovatelům pomůže zvýšit produktivitu a zároveň zpříjemnit řidičům práci. Vedle nové Fiesty Van nabídne tuto technologii také nový Transit Connect.

Značka vystavuje v Birminghamu rovněž ukázky svých inovativních řešení městské mobility, konkrétně Transit Custom plug-in hybrid z londýnské testovací flotily a koncepci doručovací služby „na posledním kilometru“. Novinkou je i atraktivní Ranger Wildtrak X.

Již tři roky v řadě je Ford nejprodávanější značkou užitkových vozů v Evropě. Prvenství si zatím drží i v roce 2018. Od začátku roku do konce března prodal 93 200 užitkových automobilů, což je pro značku nejlepší výsledek za první čtvrtletí od roku 1993.*

Stylová, kompaktní a úsporná – nová Fiesta Van

Nový Ford Fiesta Van konstrukčně vychází z oceňované nejnovější generace osobní Fiesty a je to stylový, kompaktní a hospodárný rozvážkový vůz pro firmy všech velikostí.

Paletu motorizací tvoří zážehové tříválce 1,1 l 63 kW (85 k), 1.0 EcoBoost 92 kW (125 k) a vznětový motor 1.5 TDCi ve variantách 63 a 88 kW (85 a 120 k).**

Ve třídveřové karoserii se nachází praktický nákladový prostor o objemu přibližně 1,0 m3. Délka ložné plochy činí bezmála 1,3 m a užitečné zatížení je přibližně 500 kg. Kabinu dělí od nákladového prostoru celoplošná přepážka s kompozitovou konstrukcí. Na podlaze pokryté odolnou pryžovou krytinou se nacházejí čtyři oka pro upevnění nákladu.

Kabina nové Fiesty Van kombinuje promyšlené a komfortní pracoviště řidiče s atraktivními a odolnými materiály. V nabídce výbavy na přání nechybí Ford SYNC 3, nejnovější komunikační a zábavní systém značky Ford.

První vozy budou dodány zákazníkům na podzim. V České republice se s prodejem tohoto modelu zatím nepočítá.

Konektivita FordPass Connect i pro užitkové modely

V rámci své strategie zavádění konektivity založené na mobilním datovém připojení napříč modelovou řadou Ford oznámil, že první dva užitkové modely z jeho evropské nabídky, novou Fiestu Van a nový Transit Connect, bude možné objednávat se zabudovaným modemem FordPass Connect.

FordPass Connect umožňuje proměnit vůz v pojízdný Wi-Fi hot-spot až pro 10 zařízení a zefektivnit plánování tras díky službě Live Traffic, která do navigace SYNC 3 přináší dopravní informace v reálném čase.

FordPass Connect dále otevírá možnost využívat specifické funkce mobilní aplikace FordPass:

Upozornění na kondici vozu v případě, že je zapotřebí navštívit servis například kvůli nízké hladině oleje, prasklé žárovce atd.

Informace o stavu vozu – hladina paliva v nádrži, tlak v pneumatikách, případná aktivace alarmu atd.

Dálkové odemykání a zamykání

Informace o poloze – pomůže najít vůz například na rozlehlém parkovišti

Aplikace FordPass je natolik flexibilní, že se provozovatelé několika vozů mohou rozhodnout, zda chtějí sledovat všechny vozy ze své flotily prostřednictvím jednoho účtu FordPass, nebo je mít rozdělené do několika účtů.

Inovativní dopravní řešení pro velká města

Součástí expozice značky Ford v Birminghamu jsou rovněž ukázky inovativních řešení, jejichž cílem je zvýšit plynulost provozu, čistotu ovzduší a obecně kvalitu života ve velkých městech.

Návštěvníci si mohou prohlédnout jeden z vozů Transit Custom PHEV s plug-in hybridním pohonem, které se v Londýně účastní ročních provozních zkoušek u vybraných provozovatelů. Cílem projektu je zjistit, nakolik mohou hybridní dodávky zvýšit kvalitu ovzduší a produktivitu v městském provozu.

Vyspělý „plug-in“ (s možností dobíjení z běžné rozvodné sítě) hybridní pohon umožňuje urazit v čistě elektrickém režimu vzdálenost nejméně 50 km. K prodloužení dojezdu v případě potřeby slouží spalovací motor, jímž je v tomto případě oceňovaný agregát Ford 1.0 EcoBoost.

Projekt podporuje městská organizace Transport for London a účastní se ho několik vybraných společností a organizací včetně metropolitní policie. Telematické systémy Fordu shromažďují provozní i ekologické ukazatele všech dvaceti testovaných automobilů, aby bylo možné vyhodnotit jejich přínos co nejpřesněji.

Na vývoj 20 Transitů Custom PHEV přispěla grantem ve výši 4,7 milionu liber (v přepočtu přibližně 134 milionů Kč) organizace Advanced Propulsion Centre. Návrh a konstrukci obstaralo technické středisko Fordu v britském Duntonu a společnost Prodrive Advanced Technology z Banbury za podpory Revolve Technologies.

K vidění je v Birminghamu také koncepce digitálních služeb pro provozovatele užitkových flotil, kteří doručují zboží ve velkoměstech. Služba kombinuje několik způsobů dopravy. Propojuje flotily dodávek s cyklokurýry a pěšími poslíčky. Cílem je zvýšit rychlost a efektivitu „posledního kilometru“ cesty zboží k zákazníkovi.

Atraktivní nový Ranger Wildtrak X

V návaznosti na obchodní úspěch exkluzivního modelu Black Edition představuje Ford novou speciální verzi Rangeru, který je nejprodávanějším pick-upem v Evropě.*

Nový Ranger Wildtrak X je na veletrhu vystavován v modrém odstínu Performance. Je to poprvé, kdy je tato barva k dispozici pro model Wildtrak. Exteriér varianty Wildtrak X se dále vyznačuje černým provedením přední masky, ochranného rámu za kabinou, střešních ližin, bočních nášlapů, kol a emblémů Wildtrak. Černý je rovněž sériově dodávaný roletový kryt korby.

V interiéru se objevují celokožená sedadla se stylovým kontrastním prošíváním v šedém odstínu River Rock. Wildtrak X bude nabízen s karoserií Double Cab, motorem 3.2 TDCi 147 kW, šestistupňovou samočinnou převodovkou a pohonem všech kol. Vůz má spotřebu paliva 8,8 l/100 km a emise CO2 231 g/km.***

World's lightest folding bike goes into production with race car makers Prodrive

Following a successful Kickstarter campaign, the world's lightest folding bike, by London start-up the Hummingbird Bike Company, has gone into production with British motorsport company Prodrive.

Weighing just 6.9 kilograms – three kilos lighter than its closest competitor – the carbon fibre Hummingbird bike features a three-step folding system that allows the seat post to be lowered and back wheel and handlebars to be folded under the single arched frame in five seconds.

The bicycles are now manufactured in Banbury, Oxfordshire by Prodrive, a British motorsport and advanced engineering group that designs and constructs cars for companies such as Aston Martin, MINI and Volkswagen.

The bike's frame is made using the same carbon fibre manufacturing process as Prodrive's race cars. Sheets of carbon are sliced into accurately measured strips before being aligned to make the frame. The layers are then fused together into one piece, under high pressure and heat.

"Working with Prodrive has been amazing, helping us have a perfectly engineered product, as well as a beautifully designed one," Hummingbird founder and designer Peter Craciun told Dezeen."We worked closely with Steve Price, Prodrive's chief mechanical engineer, to make sure the bike is safe and would pass all the safety requirements for the British and ISO standards."

"We also looked at improving the ride quality through analysing the geometry to create an optimum design," he added. "We're very proud of the end result."

Since Hummingbird presented its prototype in a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign in 2015, which raised £52,487 and was featured on Dezeen, the company has made a number of other improvements to the design.

This has included optimising the frame's carbon layout so that the minimum number of layers are used to provide maximum strength. The company also used CAD simulations to reduce the weight of the bike's swingarm by 50 per cent, while retaining the same strength.

Craciun told Dezeen: "The bike has also changed quite a lot in terms of 'aesthetics'; it's now sleeker and more modern. Of course, there are many other changes but none that will be obvious to the naked eye; we've been working on perfecting the design rather than changing it."

The Hummingbird also went through a full test run at Prodrive's factory, examining frame fatigue, curb drop and frontal impact.

The frame is available in four colours (yellow, black, blue and burnt orange), and prices start at £3,495. Hummingbird is aiming to launch an electric version of the bike at the end of the year.

"The folding bike market is very static at the moment," Craciun told Dezeen. "There isn't much change compared to the fast-paced competitive cycling market where we continually see innovation. We are trying to bring the same racing performance to the urban commuter."

The Hummingbird's electric version will follow in the footsteps of fellow British folding bike brand Brompton, which launched its first battery-powered version earlier this month using Formula One racing technology.

Aston Martin looking for more owners in Dubai

After years of static motion, British car maker is ready to enter the luxury automotive race

“You only live twice: Once when you are born. And once when you look death in the face.” The famous line from Ian Fleming’s legendary James Bond series reflects well on the history of Aston Martin Lagonda — whose name, for many, is tied to the iconic fictional character of a British secret service agent.

Since Bond used a DB5 Aston Martin as his accomplice in the 1964 film Goldfinger, the two trademarks have almost always gone hand in hand. Throughout the luxury car maker’s history, it has died and been revived, time and time again. As many times, dare we say, as James Bond himself.

Its first downfall came in the form of ever-changing owners, who ranged from serial entrepreneur David Brown in the 1940s to Ford Motor Company in the 1990s, before being sold to investors led by Prodrive motorsport mogul David Richards for $925m in 2007. Five years later, Italian private equity fund Investindustrial acquired almost 38 percent of the company, investing $187m in capital increase. Today’s investors include Prestige Motor Holdings (39 percent), Asmar (19 percent), Primewagon (19 percent) and Daimler (5 percent). Kuwait’s Investment Dar sold its majority share in 2013.

In between the motion waves, it suffered extreme financial troubles that went as far as bankruptcy. While it continues to struggle in the tough market, one factor has changed — chief executive Andy Palmer has reported for duty.

Though the eponymous brand experienced widening losses from $90m to $160m in 2015, its fifth straight year in the red, it also witnessed an 8.5 percent rise in revenue to $634m under Palmer, selling 3,615 cars in 2015 compared to 3,500 in 2014.

The company is also expecting a return to profitability in 2018 thanks to its “century plan” set by Palmer to resurrect the brand’s value. It includes a series of changes such as raising volume and launching new models or variations every nine months through to 2020.

“We’re going through our second ‘century plan’ and that by nature grows the volume of the business. So if we were around 3,500 units a year two years ago, then you will see that expand to 7,000 units by 2019. You’re going to see at least a doubling of volume. It will be quite a small volume compared to other big car companies but an important volume for us,” Palmer says.

He expects car sales to double in almost every market; maybe more in places such as the UAE, and maybe less in places such as China, where sports cars are less popular in general.

“Obviously, that means that we would expect to see more cars sold in the UAE. Normally, 60 or 70 percent of the sales are done in Abu Dhabi and the rest are done in Dubai,” Palmer says.

In order to keep up with demand, the brand is set to launch a showroom in Abu Dhabi in 2017. To boost sales, it has invested heavily in its first-ever SUV scheduled to come out in 2019. Following years of silence in terms of new car models, the brand is going all out on its creation, according to Palmer. It will be produced in high volumes of 4,000 to 5,000 a year and is expected to compete against Bentley’s Bentyaga SUV.

“We’ve unfortunately gone through a period where we didn’t have new cars coming. Now we’re launching a new car derivative every eight or nine months. So we put this tsunami of new products [on the market] and obviously when you’re dealing with that, you’ve got to make sure that the supply is good, the quality is good and the launch activity is good,” he says.

Aston Martin’s biggest venture, however, is its most expensive car ever made: the electric, Formula 1-inspired AM-RB001 hypercar priced at $2.5m. The automobile, which is being developed by Red Bull Advanced Technologies, is set to launch in 2018.

In line with its new car models, Aston Martin is expected to raise its production of sports cars from 3,500 to 6,500-7,000. Its second factory in Wales, which will open in 2019, will have a capacity of 7,000 units by 2020.

But for a brand that relies largely on exclusivity, you would expect greater production would reduce the value of the car. Palmer insists that will not happen.

“Exclusivity is about not being able to supply the complete demand. Every year, we do two runs of special cars. Last year, it was GT12 and Vulcan, this year it’s GT8 and it’s the Zagato coupe. Next year, it’s the Zagato Volante. Those are expensive cars. In every case, they are sold out before we announce them. The Zagato is $623,650. There are only 99 units and they’re all sold,” Palmer says, adding that monitoring the supply and demand ratio will be important.

“Our ability to be able to under-supply the market is probably the crucial part of what luxury means because you’re not trying to push. Everything is a pull.”

While new models are in the bag for Aston Martin, there is one area the carmaker is so far refusing to plunge into — driverless cars.

“Autonomous cars are less applicable to us, because we’re selling a luxury product and we’re selling something that is driver-oriented. So we will not lead in autonomous technology, however, in something like zero-emission electric cars, we will lead in that space. We will be the first car company to launch a fully electric luxury vehicle,” says Palmer.

But the 53-year-old chief executive, who is also a certified engineer, says there is much more to reviving the brand than launching new models. A large part of his turnaround plan is to make the company’s portfolio less volatile.

“In the past, we used to make a few thousand cars and sell almost every one of them in the United Kingdom. Then when the UK’s economy went on a downturn, it obviously affected our sales,” Palmer says.

“So… we try to widen our portfolio to not just sports cars or super sports cars but also including sedans and crossovers. And then we tried to take the geography and change it from being UK-centric and give it a global perspective.”

Despite attempts to broaden the brand’s portfolio, Palmer is facing major bumps in the road, particularly in the Middle East. Low prices, weakened consumer spending and a slowing economy have not made things easy for the shift. But Palmer seems to be up for the challenge.

“Is it a bit more difficult in the Middle East right now? The answer is, ‘yes, it is’. And it’s linked to the oil price and that affects consumer behaviour a little bit. It’s automatic; you can see it. If you go to China, for example, they’ve just increased the luxury tax by 10 percent. On the other hand, we are able to balance that with a resurgence in the US and the UK, and particularly quite significant growth in Asia Pacific. So by having a wider portfolio, we can compensate for, for example, risks in the Middle East,” he says.

Though Aston Martin is not at its best yet, Palmer’s attitude might just be enough to take the brand to grander days.

“We’ve seen good quarter-on-quarter growth in the operational profitability. Most importantly, in the past seven quarters, we’ve met or exceeded our business plan. So from the financial perspective, the promises we’re making to the market, we’re meeting quarter after quarter after quarter because that leads to confidence in the market,” he says.

Part of the growth is also due to new markets, including Mexico, Turkey and Russia.

“Over the last three years, we’ve doubled our number of dealers, so we’ve gone into new markets like Mexico and many new markets in Southeast Asia. We’ve added markets such as Turkey. Russia is also a new market; we’ve recently opened a dealer in Moscow. It’s a small market at the moment and you know that the economy there is quite volatile so we haven’t sold a lot of units there yet, but it’s an important market for the future,” he says.

But it is not only geographically that the brand is expanding. Following in the footsteps of competitors such as Bentley and Ferrari, Aston Martin has announced it is launching more brand extensions. Currently, it sells Aston Martin-branded fashion items and accessories in stores such as Hackett, and promotes holiday packages that include tours of Italy in an Aston Martin or experience driving one of its cars on ice.

The carmaker also is creating residence apartments in Miami and has recently released its newest powerboat, the AM37 concept.

Given the UAE’s love of high-end brands and headline-grabbing promotions, could there be an Aston Martin-themed product in the country in the near future? Palmer says, “I’m sure you will”.

The chief executive, who started his professional career aged 16 at Automotive Products in the UK, is racing against the clock to resurrect the weakening brand. But looking at his downforce, he just might make it on time.
