Certain electronic components are made for only so long, then the company has to update the electronics of the product. Part of my job involves such end-of-life issues with our products here at work. Also, only so many parts can be stamped/fabricated off certain tools & molds. Sometimes the company will use "new" tooling opportunities to reduce cost and/or increase yields.
Don't look for many updates on the remaining E series vans in production as there will be fewer vehicles to defray the non recurring costs (design, tooling, etc).
Other than that along with maybe an interior color change, that would be all I'd expect.
