In 2007, Ford introduced a facelifted version of the 2003 Turneo Connect, and it was offered as a light utility vehicle or as an MPV.

Ford developed the Turneo as a sub-model for the Transit range, but it took various components from the passenger vehicles lineup. The result was a car that was able to be used as an MPV for a family at the weekend or as a light-utility for a small business over the week.

The facelift brought a new bumper design along with restyled headlights, which incorporated the fog lights. The grille received an enhanced design, with chromed slats for the upper trim levels. There was a choice for light-alloy wheels that visually transformed the LCV look into an MPV look. Unfortunately, the door-mirrors and the handles were available only as black, unpainted elements.

Inside, Ford worked to enhance the ride quality. While the lower trim levels featured only cranked windows, the upper trim levels featured air-conditioning, CD-player, power-windows, and locks. The second row of seats was tilting and removable, so the car could have been used as an MPV or an LCV.

Under the hood, Ford installed the new generation of the TDCI engines, which featured the common-rail technology. The gasoline units were no longer on the list due to their low demand.
