Most 2022 Transit Connect models are powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. A 2.5-liter four-cylinder and six-speed automatic are available on the Cargo Van at no cost. Every model comes with front-wheel drive.

Adaptive cruise control and front parking sensors ($200) remain optional on the Wagon trims. Automatic high beams and an available automated parking system ($895) are exclusive to the Titanium.

Both XL models come with a 4.2-inch display screen, four speakers, and a USB port.

The Wagon also receives full carpeting and automatic dual-zone climate control, neither of which are available on the Cargo Van. The Trailer Tow Package ($395) permits towing up to 2,000 pounds.
