Used 2021 Ford Transit Connect Minivan Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2021 Ford Transit Connect is available in both cargo and passenger configurations in three trim levels: XL, XLT and Titanium. Two four-cylinder gas engines are available: a 2.0-liter (162 horsepower, 144 lb-ft) and a 2.5-liter (169 hp, 177 lb-ft), though the latter is only available to fleet customers.

XL
This base trim level starts you off with feature such as:

  • Vinyl flooring
  • Manually adjustable mirrors
  • 4.2-inch central display screen
  • Forward collision warning system with automatic emergency braking
  • Bluetooth audio and one USB port

XLT
Stepping up to the XLT adds:

  • Carpeted flooring
  • Dual-zone climate control
  • Ford Co-Pilot360 (automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, and lane departure warning and lane keeping assist)
  • Two USB ports
  • Ford's Sync 3 infotainment system with a 6.5-inch display
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration

Titanium
The top level model is only available as a passenger van and includes:

  • Xenon headlights with LED foglights
  • Keyless entry and ignition with remote start
  • Leather upholstery
  • Heated front seats with a power-adjustable driver's seat
  • Integrated navigation system

Which Transit Connect trim does Edmunds recommend?

The base XL model offers a lot of versatility for the money, but we suggest stepping up to the midlevel XLT. It brings more standard features, such as the Ford Co-Pilot360 driver assist tech, and opens up the number of optional features you can choose from.
