Ford Transit Connect

In 2018, an updated Ford Transit Connect Wagon appeared on the European market, which received a number of visual changes, upgraded engines and a noticeably expanded list of standard and optional equipment.

Exterior

Typically, vans are not distinguished by their bright and dynamic appearance, since their main task is to be as practical and spacious as possible, and everything else is secondary. But this definitely does not apply to Ford Transit Connect, because this car has a modern, attractive, and also moderately aggressive and dynamic appearance.

The front part of the body greets you with a relief hood, menacing head optics, a signature false radiator grille and a neat bumper. By the way, the latter houses a large air intake and neat round fog lights.

The profile of the van shows inflated wheel arches, which some crossovers may envy, as well as embossed sidewalls and plastic moldings painted to match the body color. It is also worth mentioning the large glass area, flat roof line and large sliding rear doors. The car rests on the ground with 205/60 R16 tires equipped with alloy wheels.

The back part of the body is represented by large, vertically positioned side lights and two hinged doors that provide access to the impressive luggage compartment. Let us immediately note a large selection of body colors, presented in 10 colors.

Interior design

The interior of the updated Ford Transit Connect welcomes guests with high-quality design, high-quality assembly and high-quality finishing materials. In front of the driver, there is an easily readable dashboard, complemented by a large LCD display of the trip computer, and a stylish 4-spoke multi-function steering wheel.

At the top of the central dashboard, the manufacturer has placed a 6-inch touch screen of the multimedia center, and directly below it, there is a laconic audio system control unit.

Next comes a small storage compartment, and even lower, there is an intuitive control unit for the climate system, equipped with several buttons and a pair of functional knobs. There is alsoof a spacious glove compartment, located directly opposite the front passenger.

Depending on the length of the wheelbase and the configuration option, the car can have 5, 6 or 7 seats (including the driver).

The first row of seats is represented by comfortable seats, boasting good lateral support, a lot of adjustments and heating.

The second row can be represented by a three-seater sofa or two separate armchairs. There is plenty of free space in all directions, so passengers sitting here can survive even long trips without any problems.

The third row of seats is traditionally more suitable for short riders and children.

The volume of the luggage compartment in the version with a standard wheelbase varies between 1029-1838 liters, while in the extended version it can be:

• with a 6-7-seater cabin - 322 l;
• with a 5-seater saloon – 1529 l;
• with a 2-seater saloon – 2761 l.

The declared load capacity is 504-534 liters, depending on the version of the car.

Specifications

On the European market, the car is offered with an uncontested 1.5-liter EcoBlue diesel engine, available in two powertrains:

• 100 hp and 240-270 Nm of torque, allowing you to develop the first hundred in 12.2-13.3 seconds, reach the maximum speed of 163 km/h and consume about 5 l/100 km;
