´Global Growth Plan
Profitable
growth
for all
Alan Mulally and William Clay Ford, Jr. introduce
the next-generation Ford Focus at the 2010 North
American International Auto Show in Detroit.
In the summer of 2009, Transit Connect launched
in North America as a spacious and fuel-efficient
alternative to larger commercial vehicles, offering
the maneuverability of a car, the enclosed
space of a van and the payload capacity of a
full-size pickup. This unique product – already
a market leader in Europe – was adapted for
North American use with the addition of a proven
2.0-liter engine and four-speed automatic
overdrive transmission. The durable powertrain
helps Transit Connect deliver fuel economy
of 25 mpg highway and 22 city. No other vehicle
in North America can match its combination of
payload, space and fuel efficiency. Beginning in
2010, Transit Connect Electric will be offered for
commercial customers with routine usage over
specified routes. Ford also offers a taxi prep
package, with clean-burning compressed
natural gas or liquefied propane compatibility.
