Front wiper blades on most North American Ford Transit Connect XLT models are typically 26 inches on the driver’s side and 22 inches on the passenger side. If your model has a rear wiper, that blade is usually in the 11–13 inch range, depending on year and configuration. Always verify the exact sizes for your specific year and market.
Wiper blade sizes can vary between generations and body styles (cargo van vs. passenger wagon). To ensure a precise fit, consult the owner's manual, check the door jamb sticker, or ask a parts retailer with your exact year, market, and configuration.
Front wiper blade sizes
Most recent North American Transit Connect XLT models use a longer driver-side blade and a shorter passenger-side blade. The sizes below cover the majority of cases.
- Front driver-side blade: 26 inches
- Front passenger-side blade: 22 inches
These front blade sizes reflect common configurations for late-2010s to early-2020s Transit Connect XLT vans. Earlier European-market variants or some older models may differ.
Rear wiper blades
Rear wipers are present on wagon/people-mover variants and on some late-model cargo configurations. The rear blade is typically in the 11–13 inch range, depending on the year and design.
- Rear blade: usually 11 inches or 13 inches
Again, confirm rear blade length for your exact vehicle, since some configurations use a different rear wipe geometry.
How to verify your exact size
If you want to be certain of the correct blade size for your exact Transit Connect XLT, use these verification steps:
- Consult the owner's manual for the recommended blade lengths for front and rear (if applicable).
- Check the driver’s door jamb or adjacent area for a sticker listing wiper sizes or part numbers.
- Measure the current blades by removing them and measuring from tip to tip; compare to common sizes (generally 26" for driver, 22" for passenger on the front; 11"–13" for rear).
- When shopping, bring the old blade or its packaging to ensure connector compatibility (often J-hook) and exact length.
OEM blades or reputable aftermarket brands such as Bosch, Valeo, and Motorcraft are reliable options that typically provide direct-fit units for the Transit Connect XLT.
Notes by generation and market
Because the Transit Connect has two main generations and regional variants, exact sizes can differ. If you provide your year, market (U.S./Canada vs. Europe), and whether you have a cargo van or passenger wagon, I can give precise measurements for your vehicle.
Summary
In most recent North American Ford Transit Connect XLT models, plan for 26-inch driver-side and 22-inch passenger-side front wiper blades, with rear blades around 11–13 inches if equipped. Always verify for your specific year and configuration by checking the manual or door jamb sticker, or by asking a parts retailer with your vehicle details. Choosing OEM-equivalent blades from trusted brands helps ensure proper fit and performance.
