When you're building a business in Peru, IN, a custom vehicle can help improve both productivity and efficiency. The new commercial version of the Ford Transit Connect van is one option - with its rugged construction and a flexible interior, this van can be built out to fit your company's needs.
Driving for work demands one thing above all else: reliability. You need a vehicle you can depend on to deliver consistent performance every day of the week. The Transit Connect pairs a 2.0L GDI I-4 engine with an eight-speed automatic transmission to create a combination you can count on. Every model comes with auto start-stop technology to save fuel and help you go farther on every tank. Plus, since every model is built following Ford's Light Commercial Durability Standards, you can rest assured that it's up to the task as you commute from Logansport to Bunker Hill, IN.
With its tough chassis, rigid body, and capable engine, the Transit Connect can hold up to 1,510 pounds of payload. If you opt for the short wheelbase and the Trailer Tow Package, towing is a breeze; this configuration gives you a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 pounds.
Climb into the back of the Transit Connect, and you'll find a large, roomy area for all of your work supplies. The cargo bay is customizable - leave it open to maximize space for supplies and deliveries, or choose from a wide variety of upfits to suit your business. Side racks keep your items organized and secure, while cabinets and drawers turn the interior into a mobile workshop.
To provide access to everything in the van, the Transit Connect comes standard with a sliding door on each side. On the back end, choose between a liftgate or two swing-out cargo doors to meet your needs.
Choose solid doors, or add fixed-glass panels to shed light on the interior of the vehicle. As you're loading and unloading, the Transit Connect's low height speeds up the process. With a floor that's less than two feet off the ground, you can work faster and minimize physical stress.
Technology is a crucial part of any modern business. With its smart features, the Transit Connect helps you stay on top of client communication and professional travel. The available SYNC 3 system connects your phone to the van's touchscreen so that you can control the device safely. With Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, it's easy to make phone calls to clients, listen to texts, and respond accordingly, all without taking your hands off of the wheel. Use your favorite maps app to access saved locations and find the best route.
For easier fleet management and business operations, opt for the Ford Telematics integration. This system enables you to keep tabs on the vehicle's health, track the routes using built-in GPS, and provide insights for more efficient driver behavior. With optional Ford Data Services, you can integrate the Transit Connect into your existing third-party services.
Whether you're sending employees on the road or doing the work yourself, the Transit Connect's safety features have your back. Stay alert on the road with the help of Ford Co-Pilot360; it watches out for possible collisions or accidental lane changes and warns you early for easier evasive action. The rearview camera helps you back out safely, even when the back of the van is packed with supplies. Do you ever need to make deliveries or return to the office after dark? Auto high beams ensure that you always have the best visibility in any traffic conditions. For businesses that require frequent freeway driving, the available blind-spot alert is a great way to keep drivers safe in heavy traffic around North Manchester and Greentown.
