Ford, a leader in the large passenger vehicle segment with Transit Connect since 2009, plans to launch an all-new Transit Connect Wagon & Transit Connect cargo van early next year

Ford’s all-new Transit Connect Wagon & Transit Connect cargo van will roar in to the Specialty Equipment Market Association’s annual yearly show with 10 custom-modified versions at the Las Vegas NV Convention Center Nov. 5-8.

The industry’s top aftermarket custom builders transformed six Transit Connect vans & four wagons, expressing their creativity through elaborate interior reconstructions, blazing graphics & eye-catching exteriors. This reimagining of Transit Connect showcases the lineup’s versatility & creative potential – especially for commercial use.

Ford Transit Connect, named International Van of the Year 2014, has-been a smart choice for small business owners since it launched in North America in 2009. The compact van earned the 2010 North American Truck of the Year title, adding to its global reputation for durability & toughness in that dates back to its launch in Europe in 2003.

As Ford launches the newest version of Transit Connect, two distinct models will be offered – the traditional, hard-working cargo van, a panel-side hauler; & an all-new wagon model, a stylish, spacious & fuel-efficient people mover. Transit Connect Wagon features sliding doors & flexible, fold-flat seating for up to seven passengers.

For SEMA 2013, Ford challenged aftermarket customizers to show how the 2014 Transit Connect could take families & businesses further by imagining what is possible. The builders responded, with wild designs, rad custom features & over-the-top ideas.
