Recently, Ford and Deutsche Post DHL Group entered into an agreement by which Ford will supply more than 2,000 Ford E-Transits to DHL globally. We worked with Ford to develop a full air suspension system for the E-Transit.
DHL had a specific requirement to be able to raise and lower the rear of the vehicle in order to set the cargo space to the correct height to facilitate loading and unloading at loading docks.
Following a successful development and test phase, and positive feedback from Deutsche Post DHL Group, all Ford E-Transits are set to be supplied with a full air suspension system fitted on the rear axle. Alongside the benefits of being able to raise and lower the rear of the vehicle, the vehicles now remain at the same ride height at all times, while the driving dynamics of the vehicles have also been improved.
VB-Airsuspension takes great pride in this collaboration with Ford and Deutsche Post DHL Group. It is our hope that, in doing so, we can play our part in helping both Ford and DHL to achieve their electrification goals.
