2019 Ford Transit Connect Overview

One of our favorite aspects about the 2019 Ford Transit Connect is its versatility. Acting as a an alternative to both a minivan and a work van, the Transit Connect brings together the ideal dimensions both inside and out to make your trips easy and efficient. 

Passenger & Cargo Space

The 2019 Ford Transit Connect offer two models: the short wheelbase, which comes with standard seating for five riders; or the long wheelbase, which offers seating for six or seven passengers, depending if you opt for the second-row bench.

Plus, the Transit Connect provides for easy access to more cargo space with the most flexible seating in its class.¹The rear seats fold flat into the floor, so that you can help a neighbor move or maybe purchase that new larger piece of furniture you've been eyeing up.

If you're looking for a versatile work van, we're betting you're curious about its cargo capacity. The 2019 Transit Connect offers 106 cubic feet of storage space in long wheelbase models, and 77.6 cubic feet of space in short wheelbase models with both back rows folded. 

Transit Connect Power & Performance

Powering the 2019 Ford Transit Connect are two engine options:

• The base 2.0L GDI I-4 engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission
• A direct-injected 1.5L EcoBlue® Diesel 

With either option, you'll get standard Auto Start-Stop Technology, which maintains fuel efficiency if your Transit Connect is idling or stopped. 

Speaking of fuel efficiency, you'll find this vehicle is sure to impress. You'll get an EPA-estimated 24/29 MPG city/highway²with the base engine, so you'll be cruising from one job site to the next without stopping to refuel.
