REVIEW: The Ford Grand Tourneo Connect is the first product from the Ford and Volkswagen alliance. kris_culmer finds out if it's the best van-derived MPV money can buy
When ordering your new Tourneo, you must as before choose between two wheelbases, of 2755mm and 2970mm, and then five or seven seats. Our test car is a long and fully loaded one, and it’s in off-road-you-like Active trim, which sits between Titanium and Sport. You can also have a 112bhp 1.5-litre petrol or 120bhp 2.0-litre diesel engine with a six-speed manual or seven-speed automatic gearbox. Our car has the latter of each.
Trying to adjust the fan speed on a test drive at night made me grateful, for the first time ever, for lane-keeping assistance, keeping this 1.8m-wide van on the right side of the road while I furiously fumbled. The Tourneo is now based on the Volkswagen Group’s much-used MQB car platform, whereas previously it was derived from the ubiquitous Transit van, and it certainly feels more car-like to drive than I had been expecting.
