Ford has confirmed that the new generation of its Transit lineup will be officially launched in Vietnam on July 5-6, 2024. Ahead of its debut, the 2024 Ford Transit for the Vietnamese market has been fully revealed.
From these images, it can be seen that the 2024 Ford Transit for Vietnam boasts a similar exterior to the model developed and sold by the JMC-Ford joint venture in China. This is the same joint venture that developed the Ford Territory, which is currently available in the Vietnamese market.
In this new generation, the Transit adopts a design style similar to many other Ford products. This can be observed in the front grille area, which features a large grille with a multi-point mesh design and chrome accents, reminiscent of the Ford Territory. Meanwhile, the “C”-shaped headlights bear a resemblance to those found on the Ford Ranger and Everest duo.

Similar to the previous generation, the new Transit continues to feature vertically oriented taillights. Additionally, it comes with new two-tone scratch-resistant alloy wheels and an electrically adjustable sliding door on the side.
