Ford Transit Connect 2.Generation  Kombi 230 L2 1.5 EcoBlue Trend (PKW-Zulassung)

regular on the road in downtown? Here it especially depends on the dimensions of the vehicle, but also on comfort features such as parking assistance and connectivity.

With a length of 4825 mm and a width of 2137 mm, it is increasingly difficult to find parking spaces in German cities. Tight turns in particular are becoming a challenge. Even parking assistants are only of limited help. The turning circle of 12.2 meters is okay considering the dimensions, but that doesn't help much in the city - you'll have a hard time with this colossus there. If you are on the road a lot, you should definitely order a 360-degree camera.

There are front and rear parking sensors, but not side ones.

Rating: The dimensions of the Ford Transit Connect can make it a real problem when maneuvering space is at a premium. Parking sensors, parking assistance like self-steering systems and at least a rearview camera are all on board with this vehicle and help in tricky situations. If you move around a lot in the city and have to rely on public parking spaces, you won't do yourself any favors with this car.
