Ford officially pulled the wraps off the new Transit Connect Wagon, a larger, seven-seat version of the well-known multi-purpose vehicle.

Power is provided by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine but also a smaller 1.6-liter EcoBoost power plant. A six-speed automatic transmission transfers the power to the wheels.
