The 2018 facelifted Transit Connect Kombi L1 bridges the gap between commercial practicality and family utility, providing a glazed five-seater cabin that swiftly converts into a capacious load bay. Diligent, scheduled Ford Transit Connect maintenance keeps its adaptable passenger gear and refined mechanicals performing at their peak, rivaling the Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Rifter.
Power is delivered primarily by the Euro 6d 1.5 EcoBlue diesel engine, paired with either a six-speed manual gearbox or an 8-speed automatic gearbox that brings remarkable motorway composure. The short-wheelbase chassis features independent front MacPherson struts and a car-derived rear torsion beam, tuned to deliver compliant ride comfort whether carrying passengers or bulky sports equipment.
