WESTLAND, Mich.,––Ford has just introduced the brand new Transit Connect. Not sure what this model Ford vehicle is? The Transit Connect is a cargo van or wagon. It doesn't quite look like a minivan, but like a smaller  business van you might see out making deliveries or service calls. The 2019 Ford Transit Connect is an ideal small business vehicle, not just because of its versatility and affordability for entrepreneurs and small business owners, but because of its new added safety features, engine options, and advanced in-vehicle technology.

The 2019 Transit Connect van's most impressive new features are based in safety. No matter the delivery or service call, the Transit will keep everything and everyone within safe with standard Auto Emergency Braking and Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection. Available features include Adaptive Cruise Control, which makes highway driving a breeze by automatically speeding up, slowing down, or braking dependent on the traffic around the Transit, Blind Spot Information System, Cross-Traffic Alert, and Lane Keeping System.

Other new features in the 2019 Ford Transit include SYNC3 infotainment technology with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and coming soon, Waze. The infotainment can be accessed through the 6.5" display screen and is user friendly, even for Baby Boomers who may not be familiar. The Transit Connect offers wireless smartphone charging, wi-fi for up to 10 connected devices, and Ford+Alexa personal assistant technology making it even easier to run a business or stay entertained and connected on the go.

The diesel engine is a class exclusive feature. As a bonus, the 2019 Transit Connect wagon can tow up to 2,000 lbs with the available trailer tow package!
