Preston Ford’s commercial truck division located in Hurlock, Maryland has scheduled the arrival of the all new Ford Transit Connect. The Transit Connect is Ford Motor Company’s all new, European inspired, small commercial van that will appeal to small business owners and fulfill the need for a fuel efficient work vehicle.
The all new Transit Connect is said to have a maximum storage capacity of 143 cubic feet while sustaining great fuel economy, 19 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. The small commercial van will be fully customizable with different aftermarket storage systems available from commercial brand names such as Sortimo and Adrian Steel.
Measuring in at 15 feet long the Transit has a turning radius of just 39 feet curb to curb and standing at 6’8” the small commercial van is ideal for businesses that work in tight areas and need the maneuverability that the Transit Connect offers. The new barn-door hinges on the 50/50 split rear doors of Ford’s new commercial vehicle make it easier for loading and unloading cargo.
Unique to the Transit Connect, Ford Work Solutions apply new technology to improve efficiency for small businesses that spend most of their time on the road. The new commercial van offers the option of an in-dash Windows computer that provides hands free telecommunication, Internet access and turn by turn navigation.
Ford Work Solutions has also paired up with DeWALT to provide technology that will keep track of tools stored in the vehicle. Using Radio Frequency Identification users can scan their van before leaving a job to insure that they have left no tool behind. This new feature may guarantee the Maryland Ford dealer the anticipated response to the new commercial van.
Ford Motor Company has left no details out in the development of the new Transit Connect. The small van will offer an advanced stability control system that re-measures the rate of roll 100 times per second, insuring that the new commercial vehicle is safe for all businesses.
Many are excited about the arrival of the Transit Connect including Commercial Sales Manager, Jim Phelps, who stated, “We are very excited for the arrival of the new commercial van and have already had many inquiries about the Transit Connect. We have always satisfied our local business owners by providing them with the latest models Ford has to offer at the lowest prices and we intend to keep that up with the arrival of Ford’s Transit Connect.” Preston Ford plans on the Transit Connect to arrive at their dealership at the end of June or in July and may even replace some of their own fleet vehicles with the new commercial van.
