2011 Ford Ranger

Ford finally took the wrap off the all-new Ranger pickup truck at the 2010 Australian Motor Show.

The new Ranger features a bold design inheriting some of its cues from the F150. It is very muscular and pretty tall, which makes also a good vehicle for rough terrains or off-road business.

The cargo box of the new Double Cab is more than 100mm wider than before – 1,549mm long by 511mm high and with a maximum cargo width of 1,560mm. Volume is an impressive 1.21 cubic metres.

2011 Ranger will be available with a new Dagenham-built 2.2-litre Ford Duratorq TDCi I4 diesel engine with peak torque of 375Nm and power output of 110kW (150PS), or the 3.2-litre, Ford Duratorq TDCi I5 diesel engine with a powerful 470Nm of torque and power rated at 147kW (200PS). You can also switch between 4×2 and 4×4 electronically.

Ford Ranger offers new passive safety technologies, including the availability of side curtain airbags on all cab styles for the first time. Other new Ranger technologies include Rear Park Assist and new Rearview Camera system.
