Ford Venari Ambulance
IN FEBRUARY 2021, WE PROUDLY ANNOUNCED AN EXCITING PARTNERSHIP WITH FORD OF BRITAIN TO RELEASE A TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED, LIGHTWEIGHT 3.5 TONNE AMBULANCE.
Scheduled to enter production in mid-2021, the new vehicle’s lightweight design is fully
compliant with the national specification advocated by the Lord Carter Report, offering all the equipment and capability of a front-line ambulance within a 3.5-tonne gross vehicle weight.
Project Siren used an agile, collaborative process and direct customer input from NHS Ambulance Trusts to create the new vehicle, which is designed to improve patient treatment as well as safety and ease of use for paramedics. Advanced digital connectivity supports efficient restocking and vehicle maintenance, while the lightweight design helps reduce emissions and operating costs associated with using heavier vehicles.
