Ford Transit Custom Nugget High Roof Officially Debuts

September 2, 2025 4:09 am

The all-new 2024 Ford Transit Custom Nugget debuted back in August 2023 as the latest version of the popular camper van, and just this past January, that lineup expanded yet again with the debut of the new long-wheelbase model. However, with more and more folks looking to get out in the wilderness and use their vans as mobile living spaces that don’t take up too much room on the road, it shouldn’t come as a surprise to learn that the Ford Transit Custom Nugget lineup has expanded yet again.

The all-new Ford Transit Custom Nugget high-roof was unveiled late last month, and now, it has officially debuted at the 2025 Caravan Salon Düsseldorf in Germany. The Blue Oval also gave us all of the pertinent details that were missing in the previous unveiling, starting with he fact that it has quite a bit more sleeping and storage space when compared to the regular Nugget. In fact, its bed is five centimeters (around two inches) wider than the Nugget with a pop-up roof, and the roof bed can be folded up when not in use – creating an interior height of 2.09 meters (6.86 feet).

Ford Transit Custom Nugget high-roof customers can choose from one of two layouts, too – one, with a large wardrobe with 911 liters (32 cubic-feet) of storage volume, which is 235 liters (8.3 cubic-feet) more than the pop-up roof model. The other features a permanently installed toilet and 711 liters (25 cubic-feet) of storage space – 180 more than the pop-up roof model. In either case, the new model comes with a full kitchen and a 53 liter (14 gallon) freshwater tank.

Thanks to its longer wheelbase, the Transit Custom Nugget high-roof has a total length of 5.45 meters (17.88 feet), as well as a curb weight of 2,820 kilograms (6,217 pounds) and a max towing capacity of 2,000 kilograms (4,409 pounds). In terms of powertrains, the Ford Transit Custom Nugget high-roof model will launch only in the fancier Titanium trim, powered by the turbocharged 2.0L EcoBlue diesel mated to the six-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive.
