The Ford Connecta concept car by Ghia
The Ford Connecta was referred to as the “Family Taxi”. This compact aerodynamic car is a proposal for a functional vehicle with electric propulsion. The carbon fiber and kevlar body has a single door on the driver’s side and two on the passenger side. The interior offers the possibility of modulating the space available to occupants and the loading area. Having an Escort van as a basis might not sound very exciting, but Ghia‘s 1991 Ford Connecta was an important show car: it was Ford’s first electric show car. The body-shell was in lightweight carbon-fibre and could seat six people (four forward-facing, two rearward) in a length of only 166 in (421 cm).
