Ford Transit Connect




Professional Design

When you pull up to your customer’s location in a Transit Connect, they’ll know you mean business. That’s because Transit Connect’s professional styling and functional design say you’re serious and passionate about what you do.

And with features like two sliding side doors, two 50/50 split rear doors that swing 180° standard and 255° optional, easy side and rear loading heights, you’ll be in and out and on to your next appointment in minutes.


Engine

Transit Connect’s 2.0L Duratec I-4 engine puts out 136 hp and 128 lb.-ft. of torque while delivering EPA-estimated, best-in-class fuel economy of 22 mpg city, 25 mpg highway.



Dimensions

Room for cargo? More than you might think. Transit Connect boasts up to 1,600 pounds of payload, over 135 cubic feet of cargo space, and can carry items up to six feet long, 4.9 feet wide and 4.7 feet tall.



AdvanceTrac®
with Roll Stability Control™

AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ is standard equipment on Transit Connect Wagon; optional on Transit Connect Van. AdvanceTrac® with RSC® is the only electronic stability control system with a vehicle-roll motion sensor that measures the roll rate 100 times a second. Working with the Anti-lock Brake System, traction control and yaw control, the system automatically determines how to apply individual brakes and modify engine power to help keep all 4 wheels firmly planted.*

* Remember that even advanced technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It’s always possible to lose control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions. For more information on AdvanceTrac® with RSC®, visit fordvehicles.com.

Ford to report first sales increase in 20 months today




Brace yourself for some remarkable July sales figures today.

Thanks to Cash for Clunkers, automakers are likely to report remarkably vibrant monthly sales figures, leading off with Ford. Ford officials said Sunday that it will today report its first monthly sales increase since November, 2007. None of the six biggest automakers -- GM, Chrysler, Ford, Honda, Toyota and Nissan -- have reported an increase since last August, Ford officials say.

Ford's gas-thrifty Focus, above, was one of the big sellers. "It is a sense that regular guys and gals...went out in July and bought cars and trucks," For sales Vice President Ken Czubay said.

Hyundai says Cash for Clunkers boosted its sales tally by 20%.
