You already know that Ford builds America’s bestselling truck of the past 46 years. But if you’ve got a growing business in Downers Grove, Illinois, you should also know that Ford is America’s bestselling van maker for nearly as long. Thanks to the incredible Ford Transit Connect and Ford Transit, more businesses are able to grow and thrive on their own terms.
The Ford Transit Connect is a perfect example of the flexibility and versatility the Ford Pro™ offers. Ford offers the Transit Connect in two unique styles: a cargo van that’s perfect for hauling, and a passenger wagon that can carry up to seven people.
Are you a business on the grow and on the move? The 2023 Ford Transit Connect Cargo Van can help get your name and product out there. The Transit Connect comes in your choice of short or long wheelbase, both of which are powerhouses for moving gear. SWB models offer 104.8 cubic feet of cargo space behind the front row, and LWB models carry up to 145.8 cubic feet of cargo with the front passenger seat folded flat. Either way, you’re getting a van that can support more than 1,500 pounds of payload.
If you need a cargo van that’s flexible, the Transit Connect comes through in a big way. It’s great for getting around Downers Grove thanks to a turning diameter of as little as 38.3 feet, and loading and unloading is simple with dual sliding side doors and an optional rear liftgate. You can use that space however you wish thanks to a wide range of vocational upfits, including storage cabinets, drawers, and more.
Are you starting a transportation business or want a vehicle for company trips? The 2023 Ford Transit Connect Passenger Wagon offers the space and flexibility of the cargo van, but with two additional rows of seating to accommodate up to seven people.
When you’re growing your transportation business, you need to rely on your vehicles to make a good first impression. The Transit Connect Passenger Wagon fits the bill with its spacious and well-appointed interior, as well as options like a panoramic fixed-glass Vista Roof®. Plus, it’ll make your passengers feel safe and secure with Ford Co-Pilot360™, which includes essential driver-assist technologies like BLIS® with Cross-Traffic Alert and Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking.
The Ford Transit has been America’s bestselling full-size van every year since it was introduced to the market — and it’s easy to see why. The new 2023 Transit is incredibly flexible, functional, powerful, and intelligent so that you can get the job done right the first time.
Ford ensures that the Transit is the go-to for growing businesses by offering space and power for multiple uses. Transit Cargo Vans come in six different body styles, including low, medium, and high roof configurations and regular, long, and extended-length. With two rows of seats and space for up to five passengers, the Ford Transit Crew Van is a great choice for a larger team. And you can opt for the Transit Passenger Van for your burgeoning people-moving business.
The 2023 Ford Transit is a powerhouse vehicle in any form thanks to its standard 275-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 or optional 310-horsepower 3.5-liter EcoBoost® V6. This translates to impressive hauling power, with maximum payload ranging from 3,060 to 5,110 pounds. When paired with the optional Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package, it also means towing power up to 6,900 pounds.
The 2023 Ford Transit offers power and flexibility to keep your business moving, but its suite of advanced tech helps you optimize your uptime. With SYNC® 4, the Transit comes with essentials like voice control, three years of connected navigation, and over-the-air updates. Built-in FordPass® Connect offers 4G LTE Wi-Fi powered by AT&T, which allows you and your drivers to stay connected up to 50 feet outside the vehicle.
The built-in modem also lets you take advantage of Ford Telematics™, a powerful tool for monitoring and maintaining your fleet. You can use the platform to manage every vehicle in your commercial fleet — including non-Ford vehicles — and keep track of mileage, maintenance, and more.
