Rugged & Capable Ranger
At the core of the Ford Ranger’s backcountry readiness lies a steadfast commitment to durability and reliability. To ensure that the all-new Ranger lives up to the esteemed Built Ford Tough standard, it has undergone rigorous testing equivalent to over 4.9 million miles of real-world customer usage. From traversing treacherous terrain in Australia to enduring grueling hauling and towing trials in America’s scorching heat, as well as braving the chilling cold of New Zealand, the Ranger has been put through its paces.
Ford’s engineers have focused on enhancing the very foundation of the Ranger by fortifying its fully boxed high-strength steel frame. They have extended the wheelbase and track by approximately two inches, resulting in increased bed space and enhanced stability while maintaining agility on trails. Notably, the rear shocks and shock mounts have been strategically repositioned outside the frame rails, leading to a more controlled and comfortable ride. Furthermore, all Ranger variants enjoy improved ground clearance, along with better approach and departure angles, ensuring optimal performance during off-road escapades.
Whether embarking on day trips or embarking on multi-day expeditions, the all-new Ranger is equipped to transport gear to any adventure destination. Boasting a maximum available towing capacity of 7,500 pounds and a maximum available payload capacity of 1,805 pounds, it offers remarkable versatility. Powering these thrilling journeys is the proven 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, which serves as the standard option, generating 270 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque. Additionally, customers have the option to choose the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine, shared with the F-150® and Bronco®, delivering an impressive 315 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque. This empowers the Ranger with increased power for towing, passing, and off-roading endeavors. Every Ranger model is equipped with a standard class-exclusive 10-speed automatic SelectShift® transmission, while an electronic shift-on-the-fly 4×4 system is available, designed to provide on-demand off-road capability and traction in low-traction situations.
More Ranger
In its latest iteration, the all-new Ranger introduces a plethora of ingenious storage solutions and practical features, catering to the needs of its owners. Noteworthy additions include the availability of a wireless charger for mobile devices, a generously sized center console storage bin, and spacious door pockets designed for easy access to frequently used tools and essentials. Furthermore, an optional upper glovebox expands storage capacity for additional gear, while improved second-row storage with optimized under-seat rear cargo bins makes stashing items a breeze. The new fold-flat rear seatbacks facilitate the transportation of large objects, from coolers to sizeable televisions, and there’s ample room behind the seats to store tools and equipment.
The interior of the new Ranger showcases upgraded materials, refined textures, and enhanced fit and finish. Purposeful technology takes center stage, commencing with a standard 8-inch digital instrument cluster or the available full-screen 12.4-inch cluster. The experience is elevated by the presence of a standard 10.1-inch center touchscreen or the best-in-class available 12-inch touchscreen, featuring Ford’s SYNC®4A system. This advanced system grants users easy access to smart and connected features at their fingertips. The Ranger is equipped with a standard embedded 4G LTE modem and the convenience of features integrated into FordPass® Connect. With simple gestures, drivers can navigate dedicated screens for drive modes, off-road data, navigation, music, and various vehicle controls. The center screen also syncs with the available 360-degree camera, making parking effortless and aiding in navigating challenging terrains during adventurous explorations. Intuitive physical buttons and knobs beneath the screen simplify the control of frequently used functions like climate control and radio volume.
Charging devices is a breeze with two USB ports in the cab, complemented by an available wireless charging pad‡. The Ranger is designed to improve over time, as it receives over-the-air updates that introduce new features and capabilities to enhance the overall customer experience.
To facilitate nighttime campsite setups, the Ranger now offers available Zone Lighting, controllable through the in-vehicle touchscreen or the FordPass® App. Additionally, available bed lighting assists owners in locating their gear in dark conditions. While traversing challenging trails may be demanding, getting to them shouldn’t be. The Ranger boasts an impressive array of 31 standard or available driver-assist features, the most in its class**. These include BLIS® with Trailer Coverage§, which alerts drivers to vehicles in blind spots, and Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go§. The Lariat 4×4 model features an intuitive short-throw E-shifter, enabling the Ranger to offer exclusive** driver-assist features such as available Active Park Assist 2.0, a fully automated system that assists customers in parallel and perpendicular parking in tight spaces. The class-exclusive Pro Trailer Backup Assist§ and Trailer Reverse Guidance§ utilize cameras to provide angle views and monitor surrounding conditions, offering real-time coaching on trailer maneuvering. A convenient Integrated Box Side Step, located behind the rear tires, provides a stable and secure platform for accessing items in the cargo box with ease. Furthermore, the bed offers an available 400-Watt power inverter with a built-in outlet, enabling the seamless operation of a grill for tailgating, an air compressor for tire inflation, or other trail tools. The redesigned tailgate doubles as a workbench, complete with an integrated ruler and clamp pockets. The widened track width by two inches also benefits the bed, providing over four feet of width between the wheel wells, making it simpler to load bulky cargo such as an ATV.
New Design
Distinctive grilles and front-end designs distinguish the XL, XLT, and Lariat models, defining the captivating aesthetic of the Ranger. Embodying Ford’s signature C-clamp headlight treatment, the Ranger exudes confidence with its pronounced shoulder lines running along the sides, accompanied by more prominent wheel arches. The rear end beautifully echoes the front, showcasing C-clamp taillamps that leave a lasting impression. With the unmistakable “RANGER” boldly stamped across the tailgate, there’s no doubt about the identity of this exceptional vehicle.
All-New 2024 Ranger Raptor
At the core of every Raptor lies its exceptional suspension system. The Ranger Raptor sets the stage with a purpose-built suspension, featuring lightweight aluminum upper and lower control arms. Its long-travel rear suspension is equipped with a Watts linkage and trailing arms, ensuring utmost control and confidence in challenging off-road conditions.
Taking performance to new heights, the Ranger Raptor is equipped with next-generation FOX™ 2.5-inch Live Valve Internal Bypass shocks. These shocks are coil-overs at the front and feature piggyback reservoirs at the rear, effectively reducing heat build-up and delivering uninterrupted performance throughout the day. The Ranger Raptor’s robust foundation goes beyond the standard Ranger, reinforcing crucial areas such as the front frame rails, front shock towers, rear shock brackets, suspension mounting points, and more. This enhanced construction enables the Ranger Raptor to tackle the most demanding off-road terrains with ease.
An impressive feature of the FOX™ Live Valve Internal Bypass system is its ability to adapt damping performance based on the selected Drive Modes of the Ranger Raptor. These modes, including Normal, Tow/Haul, Sport, Slippery, Off-Road, Rock Crawl, and Baja, have been meticulously developed to optimize on-road comfort, off-road control, capability, and ride quality at both high and low speeds.
Each selectable drive mode appropriately adjusts various aspects of the vehicle’s performance, including engine and transmission tuning, ABS calibration, traction control, steering responsiveness, throttle response, and even the instrument cluster and touchscreen interface. Moreover, the active valve exhaust system can be tailored to different modes, offering settings such as Quiet, Normal, Sport, and Baja. Adding to its off-road prowess, the Ranger Raptor is equipped with Trail Control™, allowing drivers to navigate tricky terrain while the truck expertly manages throttle and brake inputs.
Powertrain
An extraordinary suspension calls for an equally impressive powertrain. The Ford Performance-tuned twin-turbo 3.0-liter EcoBoost® V6 takes the stage, delivering an astounding 430 lb.-ft. of torque and a best-in-class maximum available 405 horsepower**. This engine sets the bar for power in the Ranger lineup, making it the most potent Ranger ever engineered to dominate on gravel, dirt, mud, and sand.
Starting with a compacted graphite-iron cylinder block, this exceptional powerplant incorporates a race-inspired anti-turbo-lag system, ensuring boost is readily available in Baja mode. The system keeps the turbochargers spinning for up to three seconds even after the driver releases the throttle, providing instant acceleration when exiting corners. Paired with the EcoBoost engine is a class-exclusive 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission*, flawlessly transferring power to the wheels. The advanced four-wheel drive system, combined with a new electronically controlled on-demand two-speed transfer case and front and rear locking differentials, takes the Ranger’s off-road capability to unparalleled heights.
Purpose-built
Every design element of the Ranger Raptor serves a purpose, contributing to its exceptional performance. The confident and modern styling is highlighted by LED projector headlights, accompanied by signature C-clamp lighting on either side. Above the all-steel bumper, the grille proudly displays bold F-O-R-D lettering, while integrated front and rear tow hooks and LED taillights create a seamless connection. The flared fenders feature functional fender vents and house aggressive 33-inch BFGoodrich® all-terrain KO3® tires mounted on 17-inch wheels. For enhanced capability in sand and rocky conditions, optional beadlock capable wheels with available bead locks enable the Ranger Raptor to run on lower tire pressures. Serious underbody protection is a priority, evident in the high-strength steel front bash plate and dedicated shields for the engine, transfer case, and fuel tank.
Inside the Raptor’s cabin, performance takes center stage. The sport steering wheel is equipped with cast magnesium alloy paddle shifters for quick transmission control, and a Code Orange-colored signature Raptor centering mark adds a distinctive touch. Convenient overhead upfitter switches, positioned in the overhead console, simplify the operation of off-road hardware. The unique Ford Performance front seats provide excellent support and extra bolstering, ensuring drivers remain firmly in place during high-speed cornering. Premium materials, accentuated with Code Orange trims, create a luxurious atmosphere throughout the rest of the cabin.
The Ranger Raptor seamlessly connects the driver to the adventure with an array of features. A 360-Degree Camera and Front View Camera assist in off-roading, while Zone Lighting illuminates remote locations during nighttime excursions. The class-exclusive* Pro Trailer Backup Assist† aids in maneuvering boats and campers in challenging off-road environments. Even in remote areas, drivers desire information and connectivity, and the Raptor delivers with a high-resolution 12.4-inch digital instrument cluster and a 12-inch center touchscreen running SYNC® 4A, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™ wireless smartphone connectivity††. For an enhanced audio experience, a Bang & Olufsen® sound system pumps out favorite soundtracks. The Ford Raptor family expands across the truck and SUV portfolio, including the F-150 Raptor, F-150 Raptor R, Bronco Raptor, and now the Ranger Raptor. All these vehicles cater to passionate performance enthusiasts who seek a capable truck for their most thrilling adventures. In fact, a pre-production 2023 Ranger Raptor showcased its capabilities by winning the stock midclass category of the Baja 1000, completing the challenging course in an impressive 26 hours and 21 minutes, and then driving back home for nearly 200 miles to California.
