Ford has given a fresh look to the Transit Connect Wagon to facilitate seven passengers. It is an MPV variant that has been designed as a passenger vehicle. This model will be offered in both short and long wheelbase configurations.<\/p>\n<p>It is as useful as full-size vans are whereas Ford Transit cargo vans are not even suitable for day-care services and flower deliveries etc. However, the new Ford Connect is very much suitable for this purpose and now even suitable for passenger mobility. All-new <a title=\"Ford transit connect wagon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ford.com\/crossovers\/transitconnectwagon\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Transit Connect Wagon<\/strong><\/a> is ideal for passenger mobility, school kids and as family carrier.<\/p>\n<p>In short wheelbase, it offers five seats and seven seats for the long wheelbase configurations. It is a larger TC Wagon that has a wheelbase of 121-inches.<\/p>\n<p>All new Ford Transit Connect Wagon is powered by a 2.5-Litre four-cylinder <a title=\"Ford Transit engines\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fordtransitengines.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Ford EcoBoost engine<\/strong><\/a> as a standard power option. It has a power output of 175bhp that clocks 9.5seconds from 0-62 miles per hour. There is another version available with similar power output, a 1.6-Litre EcoBoost engine. However, it is much faster in daily driving which results in estimated 8.8 second sprint from 0-62 miles per hour. This 1.6-Litre engine offers 178bhp and impressive torque even from lower revs that make the car even more powerful.<\/p>\n<p>There is a new 2.5-Litre four-cylinder engine offered for 2014 Transit Connect and will be available in both LPG\/CNG configurations. It includes hardened intake valves, valve seats and bi-fuel manifolds. It is highly likely that the Transit Connect Wagon will be the next popular commercial vehicle and a passenger van.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ford Transit Connect Wagon is a capable passenger carrier with EcoBoost engines &nbsp; Ford Transit Connect is basically a smaller version of the Transit and widely used by business fleets in the UK and across Europe.
