Ford debuted not one, but two new taxis, both of which carry more efficient engines in order to keep running costs lower for taxi companies. Whether you're looking for something shaped like a van or a sedan, Ford's got it.

The 2019 Transit Connect Taxi is based on the new Transit Connect Wagon. Like the version for regular buyers, the new Transit Connect Taxi can be had with a 1.5-liter diesel I4, which should return up to 30 mpg on the highway, although official EPA figures won't be out until early next year.
