The TRANSIT CONNECT is built to take on tough work and retain its eye-catching looks.
With the latest fuel-efficient engines and smart technology, it offers today’s business a real
competitive edge.
Aftermarket styled wheel covers shown - South African spec will vary - see specifications sheet
3. Engineered for durability. Tested for toughness.
Like all Ford TRANSITS, the TRANSIT CONNECT has durability in its DNA.
A relentless testing programme ensures that it’s a vehicle that lasts.
5-year perforation warranty.
The TRANSIT CONNECT owes its durable
exterior to a thorough multi-stage
painting process. From the wax-injected
steel body sections to the water-based
top coat, the TRANSIT CONNECT will
retain its good looks for many years to
come.
Obsessively driven.
During its development, we test drove
the TRANSIT CONNECT the equivalent
of 3 million kilometres, including
250,000 kilometres with real customers.
It’s a van you can rely on, right down to
the smallest ball bearing.
250,000 door shuts.
We opened and closed the doors and
bonnet over 250,000 times in real-world
conditions to help ensure they will never
let you down.
Pushed to extremes.
From frost-covered prototypes started
up in –40˚C at 4500-metre altitudes, to
sun-baked vehicles towing fully-laden
trailers up long inclines in 50˚C heat, the
TRANSIT CONNECT has been pushed to
extremes.

There’s room for two Europallets in the TRANSIT CONNECT.
The new TRANSIT CONNECT SWB fitted with dual passenger seat
and load-through bulkhead can accommodate 3m long items. (Option)
4. The bodyguard.
A full line up of safety and driver assistance features makes use of the latest technology
to protect the driver, passengers and their belongings.
Load Adaptive Control.
Designed to adjust the responses of the ESP system to compensate when the vehicle is unladen,
partially- or fully-laden.
Rear view camera.
Select reverse and the view from the
rear view camera is displayed
automatically in the internal mirror.
Marker lines overlaid on the camera
image indicate where the vehicle is
heading. (Option)
Occupant safety.
Driver airbag standard and passenger airbag optional.
Trailer Sway Control.
When it detects trailer sway, the system
is designed to reduce engine torque and
apply the brakes to the appropriate
wheel(s) to help maintain control.
(Standard with Ford factory-fitted tow
bar)
Electronic Stability
Programme (ESP).
ESP is designed to help you maintain
control in extreme driving conditions.
It senses when you are deviating from
your chosen line and aims to keep you
on track by automatically regulating
braking and engine output.
Emergency Brake Assist.
Designed to recognise an emergency
braking situation and increases the
pressure within the braking system to
provide optimum stopping power.
Parking distance sensors,
front and rear.
With the TRANSIT CONNECT, you won’t
have to pass by those more challenging
parking spaces. An audible warning helps
you judge the distance between your
vehicle and obstacles at the front and
rear, for easier parking and manoeuvring.
(Option)
Hill Launch Assist.
Designed to temporarily prevent you
from rolling down a slope when you move
your foot from the brake pedal to the
accelerator pedal. It works in forward and
reverse gears, so is ideal for towing and
pulling heavy loads.
4 5
Emergency brake warning.
Front and rear indicators automatically flash during heavy braking, giving other drivers
advanced hazard warning.
Traction control system.
If wheel slip is detected at low speed, this system can distribute more torque to the wheel with
most traction.
Rollover mitigation.
Designed to identify a potentially dangerous driving situation and activate the ESP to restore
stability.

delivers the most connected and enjoyable driving experience.

great to sit in, it boasts premium finishes and high-quality materials, without
compromising everyday practicality.
