2010 Ford Transit Connect gets higher than expected EPA rating
2010 Ford Transit Connect
The official EPA rating is in for the 2010 Ford Transit Connect and it appears that Ford may have underestimated the performance of the vehicle. When unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show, product development boss Derrick Kuzak stated that the vehicle should return around 20 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. The numbers came back from the EPA at 22 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. A similar situation occured when Ford released their prediction for the 2010 Fusion Hybrid, which they had pegged at 39 mpg city. The actual EPA number came back at 41 mpg city. Oh well, I guess if you’re going to be wrong, it’s best to have the actual results come back showing that you actually did better than you expected.
