The redesigned [URL="http://www.autoblog.com/ford/transit+connect/"]2014 Ford Transit Connect (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2014-ford-transit-connect-van-live/) isn't even on sale yet, but it's already making its presence felt around the world. At a commercial vehicle expo in Russia, the Transit Connect was named the International Van of the Year.
Ford's small work van edged out the new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (http://www.autoblog.com/mercedes-benz/sprinter/) by just seven points to allow Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/) to grab this honor for the second consecutive year, which it won last year with the Transit Custom.

Ford congratulates itself for the accomplishment in a press release posted below (http://www.mnfords.com/2013/09/18/ford-transit-connect-second-consecutive-international-van-award/#continued).Continue reading Ford wins second consecutive International Van of the Year award with Transit Connect (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/09/18/ford-transit-connect-second-consecutive-international-van-award/)
