 The biggest determining factor in highway fuel economy for the Transit is roof height and speed; the high and medium roof vans get significantly worse gas mileage than the low roof models (especially at highway speeds). [[https://www.fordtransitusaforum.com/forums/ford-transit-mileage-and-mpgs.234/|Community consensus holds that a stock High Roof van with the Ecoboost engine and RWD will get 20mpg at 55mph, 16mpg at 65mph, and 14mpg at 75mph]].  AWD loses ~1mpg on average. Lift kits and big tires can reduce it further, however the reductions are much less dramatic at lower speeds.
-From 2020 onward, all Transits are equipped with a 10-speed automatic transmission that has an extremely deep 10th gear at 0.63:1. This 10th gear is only used when the van is in "Eco" mode and noticeably helps highway mileage.

 Roof racks seem to have a significant drag on highway fuel economy, losing 2-3mpg at highway speeds. [[https://www.buildagreenrv.com/mpg-penalty-for-roof-racks-on-camper-vans/|Empirical testing confirms this]].
