Western Power Distribution has renewed its contract with Ford to supply all its light commercial vehicles and small business cars. The new agreement is for two years, with an option to extend.
The electricity distribution company for South-West England and South and West Wales, based in Bristol, runs 600 diesel-powered Ford Transit T300s and T350s, Transit Connects and Rangers, as well as Ford Focus hatchbacks.
WPD delivers electricity to 2.5 million customers over a 10,000 square mile area. Its technicians use Ford vehicles, for construction and maintenance of its large network.
“We’re very pleased with the vehicles,” said WPD’s Fleet Manager John Brooks. “They’re reliable, and delivery and service from the main dealer is very good. The drivers are happy too – it’s an all-round good-quality product.”
