    PRODUCT OVERVIEW

    If you like Ford, you’ll love the Connect Avance™.

    The Ford Connect Avance™ is a new wheelchair-accessible conversion of the Tourneo Connect Titanium. It gives you the choice: drive from your own wheelchair or power chair, or ride up front beside the driver. Either way, the whole family travels together.

    THREE WAYS TO TRAVEL

    Drive it. Ride up front.
    Or sit back with the family.

    Roll in, dock and drive.

    The interchangeable front seat comes out, so you can drive from your own wheelchair or power chair. There’s a designated safe zone for a docking station to hold your chair securely while you drive.

    The best seat in the house.

    Prefer not to drive? Travel up front beside the driver, with the same view and the same conversation as everyone else. The interchangeable seat moves across, so the front wheelchair position works for driving or riding.

    FIT CHECK

    Will my wheelchair fit?

    Enter a few measurements and we’ll compare them with the Avance’s figures. It takes about two minutes with a tape measure.

    How will you travel?

    How to measure
    • Sit in your chair as you would to travel, on a flat floor.
    • Measure head height with a straight edge across the top of your head.
    • For width, measure across the widest part, usually the push rims.
    • Include anything that sticks out, like footplates, joysticks or headrests.
