It ain't a looker, but the Ford Transit Connect Wagon (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/13/2014-ford-transit-connect-wagon-brings-minivans-back-to-the-blue/) is more functional than a Gobot and has returned the word "mini" to The Blue Oval's van selection. Ford (http://autoblog.com/ford) is screaming from the Transit Connect Wagon's optional panoramic roof that it's "anticipating up to" 30 highway miles per gallon for buyers choosing the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine. The other powerplant choice is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder, both connected to a six-speed transmission.
Smaller families can go with the five-seater version, while the seven-seater will be available on a longer wheelbase for larger clans. Trims are XL, XLT and the familiar Titanium, all of them boasting sliding side doors, fold-flat second and third rows and payload capacities beyond 1,200 pounds. There are two rear-entry options to boot, either a rear liftgate or side-hinged cargo doors if you insist on being reminded of the commercial roots of your minivan.
The five-seater is in the high-res gallery above, the seven-seater in the one below, with both demonstrating that it's the beauty inside that matters most.2014 Ford Transit Connect Wagon is as homely as it is hugely practical (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/29/2014-ford-transit-connect-wagon-la-2012/) originally appeared on Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com) on Thu, 29 Nov 2012 17:00:00 EST.
