The handsome Ford Ranger is a hard-working pick-up truck with impressive towing strength and load capacity. It also possesses a well-appointed cabin and comes in a range of body styles (Regular Cab, Super Cab and Double Cab) and trim levels (XL, XLT, Limited and Wildtrak).
Exterior
The muscular Ranger comprises body-coloured front bumpers, power-operated and heated door mirrors, rear mud flaps and a heated windscreen among its range of standard exterior features. Depending on the model you select, the Ranger’s payload varies from 932 litres (Double Dab) to 1,194 litres (Regular Cab).
XLT grades feature 16-inch alloys wheels and chrome-finished elements: door mirrors, door handles and front grille, as well as automatic rain-sensing headlights and front fog lamps.

Inside the Ranger, the driver benefits from four-way-adjustable (and lumbar-supporting) seating. Other standard features include electric front windows that offer one-touch operation on the driver’s side.
Additionally, XLT trims feature a leather-trimmed steering wheel, cruise control, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror and pollen-filter-enabled air-conditioning.
