by Toby Clark • Ford will be showing a "concept" Transit van at the IAA Show in Hanover in September. The van will give an indication of how the next generation of Transits will look, with revised panels, a new front end and "dropped" side windows. Design and development of the new Transit is taking place in the US, although the vehicle is likely to be built at the plant in Southampton. The show vehicle will have either Ford's latest 2.5litre turbo-diesel, rated at 114hp, or a prototype of its next-generation commonrail diesel, to be introduced along with the new van in 2000.
Li The IAA Show takes place at the Hanover Messegelande from 3-19 September. Commercial Motor's comprehensive report on the show will be in the issue dated 10-16 September.
