New Model Ford Ranger 4×4 Pickup truck and Ford Ranger Wildtrax
The new 2017 2018 Ford Ranger is a thing of beauty It has been designed and developed in Australia as a part of its One Ford Strategy which is reminiscent of Toyota Hilux IMV strategy. The second-gen Ford Ranger was based on Mazda BT50. In 2011 Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50 parted their course and the third-gen Ranger was made entirely by Ford and this is where Ford began garnering its own fans. Ford Ranger was again facelifted in 2015 with a range of updates that made it the King of the Hill. It is now a fierce competitor to Toyota Hilux Revo and Ford Ranger Wildtrak a competitor to Toyota Hilux Revo TRD version. In some markets it is outselling Hilux a perennial favorite in pickup market.
On the outside, chief designer Craig Metros created a tougher, more solid appearance by squashing and squaring the headlights for a ‘glaring’ effect, and installing the thick three-bar grille look from the Ford F150. Meanwhile, the grille’s been given a hexagonal outline to mimic the rest of the Ford LCV line-up.
First thing you will notice is how big the new 2017 2018 Ford Ranger is, it is almost as big as the legendary lower range Ford F-150. Though the new Ford Ranger is about six inches narrower than the F-150, it’s within just two or three inches in length of the F-150. It is not clumsy big but bold and handsome big. Prior to the release of 2017 2018 Ranger, Nissan Navara was the biggest pickup truck at 5,230X1,850 mm but at 5,359X1,850mm Ranger Double Cab is now the biggest pickup truck around. This results in not only more knee clearance and leg room for the rear passenger but also easier access through the larger rear door.
Ford Ranger’s all-new grille is similar in design to Ford’s SUV range including the Edge and recently facelifted Kuga. Inside has had a refresh, too, and there’s a host of technology and active safety upgrades. You can also get Ford’s SYNC2 voice-activated navigation and infotainment system on higher spec cars. The engines have been tweaked to improve efficiency, including stop-start and a more efficient electric power steering system, while the suspension has been reworked to improve the Ranger’s on-road handling.

The new model 2017 2018 Ranger pickup truck is powered by a frugal 2.2-liter four-cylinder DuraTorq TDCi turbo-diesel engine offering 150 HP and 375 Nm of torque, and a 3.2-liter in-line five-cylinder DuraTorq TDCi turbo-diesel, making 200 hp and an impressive 470 Nm of torque—as much as some V-8s. Those engines come mated to six-speed manual or automatic transmissions; a version of tfive-speed manual transmission are also offered. Even though 2500 cc engine has been down downized to 2200 cc the output of new engine is better than 2011 Ranger and all other pickup truck with the exception of Nissan Navara. The advantage of lower cc is lower fuel consumption. A 4×2 2200 cc will only consume 7.6 Liters per 100 kms.
The all-new 2017 2018 Ford Ranger has been ruthlessly tested: in some of the most hostile environments, under extreme temperatures, and across the harshest terrain on earth. Which is why it’s ready to handle virtually any Challenge or task you set it. The latest model is also more powerful than ever before. This extra power is delivered by a new line-up of advanced Duratorq diesel engines, which can help you transport a payload of up to 1,340 kg and tow up to 3,350 kg.
The new 2017 2018 Ford Ranger is the first in class to offer a six-speed automatic transmission and six speed manual transmission. The gearbox has Sequential Shift Control manual override, Grade Logic Control and Driver Recognition, the latter adapts to the driver’s style. The manual is not only 6 speed but also includes an upshift indicator to encourage efficient driving.
Globally, the truck will come in 4X2 and 4X4 drivetrains and two ride heights, with the 4X2 Hi-Rider sharing the same frame as the 4X4 model. Shift on the fly is available for 4X4 models.
Engineers have optimised every millimetre of Ranger’s dimensions to give customers maximum interior space without compromising the volume of the cargo box. With Ranger increasingly being a work-and-family vehicle, the engineers have paid special attention to the rear seats in the truck, with the second row in the Super Cab more spacious than key competitors.
The B-pillar in the Double Cab has been moved forward, delivering best-in-class rear leg room and knee clearance. Three adults can easily fit in the second row of the Double Cab while two six-footers can comfortably sit one behind the other.
A new feature is the locking rear differential that’s activated by a dashboard button. This would be valuable off road when one rear wheel is in mud or not touching the ground. 4X4 and Hi-Rider models have 241 mm ground clearance and class leading 800 mm of wade height, good for floods. By the way, the steering is now rack and pinion.
Some of its selling features are best in class towing capacity (up to 3,350 kg, payload up to 1,500 kg), Bluetooth with Voice Control, rear view camera, side and curtain airbags, 23 storage spaces in the cabin (including a vented 8.5L centre bin), separate driver passenger climate control, cruise control, trailer sway control, Hill Launch Assist and Hill Descent Control. Electronic Stability Control (ESP) along with traction control on all 4 wheels is now a standard. High-end models will include Rearview Camera and rear parking assist.
While the exterior of this truck bears a strong likeness to the 2011 F-150, the interior carries some design cues that are part of Ford’s new global look (with a central controller and high-mounted screen), as well as some detailing borrowed from the F-150 as well as Bosch and DeWalt power tools and G-Shock watches, according to the automaker. The new truck comes with the all the updated connectivity features including an iPod connector and Bluetooth, as well as steering-wheel controls.
Thanks to its range of advanced Duratorq diesel engines and 6 speed transmissions, innovative technologies, safety and security features and cost of ownership improvements, the all-new Ranger is a pick-up that’s fit for purpose.
