Detailed analysis of the Ford Tourneo Connect Titanium 1.5 TDCi 120 CV Powershift (2015-2018)
General description
The 2014 Ford Tourneo Connect presents itself as much more than just an adapted commercial vehicle. It is a life companion, designed for active families and professionals who do not give up space or comfort. Its practical and versatile spirit makes it a smart solution for those who need to transport everything, from the weekly shopping to the weekend adventure gear, without sacrificing the comfort of a passenger car.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the 1.5 TDCi 120 HP diesel engine feels willing and full of life, especially thanks to its 300 Nm of torque available at low revs. The dual-clutch Powershift automatic transmission provides exquisite smoothness in gear changes, making urban driving a pleasure. It's not a sprinter, but its response is more than enough to travel with agility and safety, conveying a sense of robustness and control that inspires confidence with every kilometer.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is an ode to functionality. The square shapes maximize interior space, creating an incredibly spacious and bright cabin. The sliding rear doors are a blessing in tight parking spots and make access much easier. Although its origin is commercial, the Titanium trim adds details and alloy wheels that give it a more distinguished and family-friendly appearance, proving that practical doesn't have to be at odds with style.
Technology and features
At its technological heart beats the efficient combination of the TDCi engine with a Start-Stop system and the 6-speed Powershift gearbox, which optimizes consumption and offers a smooth driving experience. Although its infotainment system may seem simple by today's standards, at the time it offered the necessary connectivity for daily life. The electric power steering and active safety systems were a clear reflection of Ford's commitment to comfort and protection.
Competition
In such a competitive market, the Tourneo Connect faced versatility titans like the Citroën Berlingo, Peugeot Partner, Volkswagen Caddy, and Renault Kangoo. Each with its own strengths, but the Ford managed to stand out for a dynamic behavior closer to that of a passenger car and a very well-achieved overall balance between work and leisure.
Conclusion
The Ford Tourneo Connect with the 1.5 TDCi engine and Powershift transmission is a brilliant choice for those who value space and practicality above all else. It is an honest vehicle that more than delivers on its promise: to be a tireless ally for family and work. Its pleasant drive and enormous load capacity make it a tool of freedom, capable of adapting to any plan life throws at you.
