Ford Transit Connect
Available in cargo van and passenger van configurations (the former with over 4,000 litres of cargo room and the latter offering seating for five, six or seven), the Transit Connect is motivated by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that produces 162 horsepower. Fleet customers also have a choice of a 2.5-litre engine rated at 169 horsepower. The diesel engine is no longer offered, however. On the plus side, the Ford Co-Pilot360 suite of driver assistance systems is now available.
