TOP 5 Best vans in the world
Van manufacturers compete on many levels. Some of them want to create the fastest cars in the world, while others are working on the most ecological methods of driving system. First van in history was produced under the American brand Dodge. Commercial vehicle manufacturers are currently competing with each other to develop electric vans with great load space. Today we will focus on comparing the sales data of individual models of vans with the titles of International Van Of The Year.
What is the best van ever? TOP 55. Volkswagen Transporter
Title International Van Of The Year: T4 – 1992, T5 – 2004, T6 – 2016
Sold: 12 million vans
Volkswagen's flagship van model with a simple name "Transpoter" has sold over 12 million copies worldwide. This is probably the most-bought van in history. Many people associate it with construction teams or company cars, which emphasizes its versatility and durability. Three subsequent generations of Transporter - T4, T5 and T6 won the title of the International Van of the Year.
4. Iveco Daily
Title International Van Of The Year: 2000, 2015, 2018
Sold: over 3 million copies
Iveco Daily is a higher class truck produced under the Italian brand since 1978. It stands out from the competition due to the wide range of permissible load capacity of vehicles, reaching up to 5 tons. The Italian manufacturer has been developing its own technological solutions in the field of diesel power units from an early age. The level of sales and production of Iveco Daily has significantly increased in recent years, which is emphasized by the titles of the International Van of the Year 2015 and 2018. Iveco Daily parts are very diverse, due to frequent facelifts and modifications.
3. Fiat Ducato (Citroen Jumper, Peugeot Boxer)
Title International Van Of The Year: 1994
Sold: 2.6 million vehicles
Why did we place Fiat Ducato in a higher position than Iveco Daily despite worse "numbers"? Fiat Ducato is the most frequently chosen base for motorhomes, completely dominating this market segment. This was due to low prices of spare parts and simple, proven construction solutions. The vehicles of this brand are equipped only with diesel engines, have a good coefficient of air resistance and serve hundreds of thousands of travelers from around the world. It is also worth noting that Citroen Jumper and Peugeot Boxer are based on the same design solutions and sold under other brands. Thus, parts for Fiat Ducato very often also fit Peugeot and Citroen vans.
2. Ford E Series
Sold: 8.2 million vehicles
Ford E-series is a natural succession of such iconic vehicles as the Ford Econoline / Club Wagon. It was produced for the American and Canadian market in 1996-2014. In 2014, he was withdrawn from the market to give way to his European brother - Ford Transit. However, it was widely used by public service units such as police, hospitals, and television. Due to the universality and good sales results, he found himself in many films and other works of culture.
1. Ford Transit
Title International Van Of The Year: 2001, 2007
Sold: over 8 million copies
Ford Transit is an element of pop culture and worship among the inhabitants of many countries, mainly Great Britain and Turkey. In recent years, the naming of "Ford Transit" has also been introduced to the US market, where the vehicle is offered with high capacity power units. All over the world, in every city you will find at least one Ford Transit. Ford has already launched the 8th generation of its iconic van and smaller commercial vehicles from the same family (Custom, Connect, Courier). Its popularity, multitude of versions, continuous development and importance for pop culture have made Ford Transit on the first place in our ranking.
We would like to emphasize that this is our subjective opinion, supported by sales data and the number of prizes awarded to specific vehicles.
