It’s a big step for the Ford Ranger, New Zealand’s favourite 4WD double cab ute. The ‘Next-Generation’ Ranger delivers high-tech features, smart connectivity and enhanced capability. Its design retains key elements of the current version and underneath the sheetmetal there will be a choice of diesel powertrains, including Ford’s V6 turbodiesel and class-leading 10-speed transmission. Underneath is an upgraded chassis with a 50 mm longer wheelbase and 50mm wider track than the current Ranger. A hydro-formed front-end structure creates more space in the engine bay for the new V6 engine and helps future-proof the Ranger for other propulsion technologies.
