Ford begins testing Transit Plug-in Hybrids in London ahead of 2019 production From the article: "Ford has begun testing of its new Transit Custom Plug-In Hybrid with Transport for London, working with the UK city’s local transit authority to pilot 20 of the new vehicles in use during a 12-month trial with select London businesses for commercial use. The pilot of the vehicles, which feature a pure electric range of around 31 miles according to European agency measurement standards, is designed to pave the way for broad production and sales in Europe beginning in 2019." So these are not pure electric, but they will run a full 31 miles (about 50km) on a charge, before starting to use petrol. See http://ift.tt/2jJXY8V
