Ford Transit Connect
Ford was the first to sell a compact minivan of European origin. So warm was the welcome that a more modern, cozier and more elegant second generation is now available. Meanwhile, the Touring version can accommodate passengers more comfortably. The drivetrains have also evolved. This time, two 4-cylinders are available: a 2.5-litre and a 1.6-litre turbo. The model is a front-wheel drive.
