DUNTON, UK – This new film from Ford Pro follows two back-to-back shifts by paramedics as they respond to medical emergencies across London, using a fully electric Ford E-Transit ambulance.
London Ambulance Service introduced Ford E-Transit electric ambulances as part of its fleet last January. The emergency vehicles, engineered with support from the Ford Pro Special Vehicles team, have been working round the clock providing the same front-line response service as diesel-powered models – but importantly, also produce zero emissions while driving.
The Service also says its Ford E-Transit electric ambulances have delivered a fuel cost saving of almost 75 per cent when compared with diesel-powered equivalents.
“It’s rewarding to see London Ambulance Service recognise the capability of E-Transit electric ambulances and help prove that the driving range and versatility of electric vehicles means they can serve even in front-line emergency roles,” said Mandy Dean, director, Commercial Vehicles, Ford of Britain and Ireland.
