A few years ago already, due to the rising popularity of SUVs and crossovers, the American automaker Ford abandoned the minivan market family. Now that the price of fuel is rising, Ford made a comeback in the minivan market with a seven-seater vehicle can pull a load of 900 pounds and show a fuel consumption of less than 8 liters per 100 kilometers. This is the Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014.
Mechanics of Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014
The Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014 will offer a choice of two 4-cylinder engines. First, Ford will offer a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine with double overhead camshaft head, if we rely on data from the Ford Fusion, should develop a power of 170 horsepower and produce a torque of 170 pounds feet. The second engine that the American manufacturer will offer the 4-cylinder 1.6-liter EcoBoost Ford Escape. This engine develops an output of 178 hp and a torque of 184 lb-ft. For both mechanical gearbox used is the 6-speed automatic.
With a fuel consumption of less than 8 liters per 100 kilometers, the Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014Â is obviously the seven-seater van most energy efficient on the North American market.Even if we are dealing with 4-cylinder engines, you can enjoy a vehicle capable of carrying seven people and take a load of 900 pounds.
Body and interior of Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014
It is also possible to obtain a five-passenger version and accessories like the panoramic sunroof, rear view camera, navigation with 6.5-inch monitor and the SYNC system with voice recognition and MyFordTouch. In terms of security, we note pads front and side curtain airbags as well as the two rows of rear seats. Amongst the facilities offered in the Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014, we can mention the presence of a mirror which allows the driver to see that children are at the rear of the vehicle. The Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014 will receive an electric defroster for the windshield, which will accelerate the defrosting cold weather.
The Ford Transit Connect Wagon 2014 version arrived on the U.S. market in 2009. Since that time, the manufacturer has sold some 35,000 copies per year to small businesses, corporate fleets and taxi companies. There are even some individuals who have acquired. It goes without saying that a wagon might interest a little more Mr. and Mrs. All-the-world. We should see land concessions in Ford in the fourth quarter of 2013. For Ford, this is really a comeback in the minivan segment it had abandoned a few years ago.
