The Ford Transit van is following in the tire tracks of brand’s trucks and SUVs … off-road.

The Transit Trail is a new version of America’s best-selling van that’s ready for the rough stuff.

It comes with a 310 horsepower version of Ford’s 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 engine and an all-wheel-drive system equipped with a traction control system with settings for mud, ruts and slippery surfaces.

It features a 3.5-inch higher ride height than the other Transit models, thanks in part to a set of tall 30.5-inch all-terrain tires mounted to black 16-inch alloy wheels.

The Transit Trail is only sold as a two-seater with rear privacy glass on its sliding door, the idea being that owners will customize the cargo area for work or play, with off-road adventuring high on the priorities list.
