Cue the Sport variant, which adds more spice to the Transit range. A shorter wheelbase, some head-turning exterior additions, and some interior additions match the single turbo 2.0-litre EcoBlue four-cylinder diesel engine making 125kW /390Nm, with power sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. Racy stripes, a peppy engine, and more, but how does the safety equipment measure up?
