It's a panel van, but who for?

CONUNDRUM: BIG MOVER, BUT IT'S LIGHT ON ITS FEET
I had the opportunity to test one of the best-looking panel vans on the market, the Ford Transit Custom Sport.
The first question I posed to myself is why? Why would Ford manufacture a Sport model of panel van and who is this vehicle targeted at?
This model is powered by Ford's 2.0 litre turbo diesel engine paired with an automatic gearbox which manages to move the vehicle around town with ease.
The Ford Transit Custom Sport is quite a heavy vehicle but with this engine and gearbox combo, you do not feel the weight.
