Hybrid electric, components and powertrain systems for commercial vehicles Azure Dynamics, says European dealership Auto-Strunk has inked a sales and service agreement for the Ford Transit Connect Electric van.

Transit ConnectElectric will be available via Auto-Strunk locations in both Cologne and Langenfeld (Rhineland), Germany.

European manufacturing for Transit Connect Electric began in June, 2011 and in North America in April, 2011.  Azure has since received orders for the Transit Connect Electric van of more than 400 units worldwide.

“Germany is an important market for us and we’re thrilled to have Auto-Strunk, a well-known and well-connected dealership partner, to present Transit Connect Electric to its commercial fleet customers,” Azure managing director in Europe Ricardo Espinoza said.

“Auto-Strunk is working aggressively to provide customers with vehicles that help lower operational costs and improve environmental performance,” said Auto-Strunk CEO Edith Strunk.

“The Transit Connect Electric van can accomplish those goals as well as any vehicle currently available in Germany.”
