2013–2015 Ford Tourneo Connect 1.6 TDCi 75 Specs & Performance

The 2013–2015 Ford Tourneo Connect 1.6 TDCi 75 represents the more compact side of Ford’s second-generation people-carrier range. Its relatively short body keeps the vehicle easier to handle in everyday traffic, while the tall roof and flexible cabin provide the sort of space normally associated with larger vans. With five doors and a configurable passenger area, it can shift between family transportation and carrying duties without requiring a large exterior footprint. The emphasis is clearly on making everyday space useful rather than making the vehicle imposing.

Power comes from a 1.6-liter turbocharged diesel developing 74 hp and 162 lb-ft of torque at 1,500 rpm. A five-speed manual gearbox drives the front wheels, and the engine's low torque peak suits steady progress when the cabin is occupied or loaded. The 47 mpg combined figure also fits its economical role, while up to 85.1 cubic feet of luggage capacity gives it considerable flexibility. It is a modestly powered vehicle, but one designed around the practical details that matter when versatility is more important than speed.
