pffan1990 65 Posted November 28, 2020 That was fast. Seems like just a few months ago was when the 2021 Transit Connect had open orders and then Job #1 date. With the 2021 model year being a short run, does this mean that the 2022 is the redesigned next generation one? If so, then we should see a reveal of it soon.

The schedule only differs by about a month. The Job #1 Date for the 2021MY was 05/18/2020 and for the 2022MY it's 04/19/2021. Someone else may have a better idea but I'm not expecting the 2022MY to be the next generation Transit Connect. There's also the question we don't have an answer to about whether Ford is still considering moving production to Mexico for the North American market. 1 pffan1990 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know what it was I thought but it was another vehicle that had somewhat started recently with Job #1 date. I didn't realize the 2021MY started last May for TC. I also wonder about production location for next gen TC as it was previously thought to be in Mexico. Ford seems to change their plans so often that who knows what they're planning now for the TC.
