All of the engines offered to power the new van .are confident 1.8-litre Duratorq turbo diesels. Up to 109bhp and 250Nm of torque will be at your disposal, helping the Transit Connect to carry and tow whatever you need. Depending on the configuration of your van, the maximum payload could be close to a tonne - and you'll still be able to pull a trailer if you need to

Ford's reputation for safety is also upheld with the Transit Connect, as the van is packed with security and protection. The van's body incorporates energy-absorbing crumple zones and side-impact beams, and any bulkhead you choose will be DIN compliant.

Other driver assistance features include Active Park Assist, Intelligent Speed Assist, Side Wind Stabilisation and Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection.
