Ford has pulled off a suprise conversion on the Ford Explorer SUV turning it into a full commercial vehicle. We take a look at the Ford Explorer Van dimensions for this all-electric compact van conversion.
In this guide, we'll look at the overall size of the Ford Explorer Van, it's loadspace dimensions and it's internal dimensions.
The Ford Explorer Van is based on the Ford Explorer SUV. There's no difference in the overall size of the van compared to the car, that means all the standard measurements for the passenger car apply to the Explorer Van.

During out test we put a wide range of equipment in the back, from boxes to bags and even some office chairs and sporting equipment.
The Ford Explorer Van actually proved to be surprisingly practical, and that's because although the numbers paint a pretty good picture of its size there's actually a lot you can do with the angles and shape so those spaces above the rear wheelarches.
The optional tray with dividing sections was also particularly helpful, preventing items sliding around during out test. There's also four lashing points in it too.
