2012 Ford Transit Connect Electric
What it is: A small but
spacious work vehicle that can be driven up to 80 miles on a full
electrical charge.
What’s New: The Transit
Connect Electric replaces the base vehicle’s 2.0-liter four-cylinder
engine with an Azure Dynamics Force Drive electric powertrain featuring
a Johnson Controls-Saft 28 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. It can be
charged in six-to-eight hours on a 240-watt outlet and has a top speed
of 75 mph.
Bottom Line: The Transit
Connect Battery Electric just makes sense. Fleet managers will be
better prepared than families to charge and maintain electric vehicles,
and they can save money on gas by sending these worker drones out on
short deliveries.
