Introducing the New 2011 Transit Connect

Minivans. SUVs. CUVs. The one-of-a-kind Ford Transit Connect is the right one to replace them all. Available as an XL or
XLT Van and as an XLT or new XLT Premium Wagon, it combines the room and versatility of a van with the efficiency of
a large car. It’s right-sized and purpose-built to swallow cargo, sip gas1 and park in tight spaces. And it does it all while
conveying a professional image designed to help you stand out in a crowd.

trim, or available doors on articulated hinges (shown below) swing a full 255.° You’ve got 4 options for the van’s door panels:
side- and rear-door glass, single-side door glass, no glass or rear glass only. Inside, an expansive load floor plus low side and
