  • Ford Transit Connect Towing Capacity

Ford Transit Connect Engine Performance

Under the hood, the Ford Transit Connect is powered by a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that will run both powerfully and efficiently. The vehicle is able to pump out 162 horsepower and 144 lb-ft of torque, which is enough output to tackle just about any cargo-carrying job you have in mind.

While you work hard, so will the Transit Connect. The EPA-estimated 24 city/27 highway MPG the van is able to earn will help keep you away from those pesky pumps and on the way to your next destination, saving you time.

Ford Transit Connect Cargo Dimensions

If you are interested in the Ford Transit Connect, you are more than likely interested in its ability to carry cargo from destination to destination. While the engine discussed above is partially responsible for this ability, just as important are the vehicle’s dimensions.

In its base configuration, you will be able to seat two passengers inside the cabin of the cargo van with 63.2 cubic feet of passenger volume. Behind the front seats, you will have 104.8 cubic feet of cargo room for any equipment you may need to transport. Your available cargo capacity can be extended to 123.2 cubic feet too. To do so, just fold down the front passenger seat.

For any equipment that does not fit on the inside of the Ford Transit Connect, you will want to take advantage of its towing ability. The vehicle features a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 pounds when properly equipped, which is plenty of power for a moderately sized trailer.

Ford Transit Connect Technology

Just because the Ford Transit Connect is a high-performing commercial vehicle doesn’t mean it is devoid of impressive tech. In fact, it is quite the contrary. This Ford van is stocked with impressive technology that will improve your comfort, productivity, and safety.

In terms of comfort, the 6-way manual driver’s seat will allow you to find your ideal seating position. This will prove important, whether you’re hauling gear on a long highway journey or just down the street.

The standard FordPassä Connect system with a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot will enhance your convenience by providing seamless mobile device integration. Pair this with the 4.2-inch LCD multi-function display with steering wheel controls, and your Ford Transit Connect will double as an office on wheels.

While you are able to take advantage of this comfort and convenience technology, the driver-assistive tech will work to keep you and your cargo safe. Standard driver-assistive features include:

  • Curve Control
  • Rear View Camera
  • Emergency Brake Assist
