Ford 2024 Ranger Specs
Engine:
The 2024 Ford Ranger features an array of advanced towing technologies, convenient storage features, and an available 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine for added power to meet the changing needs of adventure seekers in North America.
This engine, which is shared with the F-150 and Bronco, produces 315 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, making it ideal for towing, passing, and off-roading.
Furthermore, the Ranger has a maximum towing capacity of 7,500 pounds and a payload capacity of up to 1,805 pounds, making it an excellent companion for day trips or longer journeys.
Design:
The 2024 Ford Ranger is designed with both functionality and style in mind. The wheelbase and track have been extended by approximately two inches thanks to an improved fully boxed high-strength steel frame, resulting in improved stability, more bed space, and improved trail maneuverability.
The increased ground clearance, approach and departure angles, as well as the repositioning of the rear shocks and shock mounts, improve the Ranger’s off-road capabilities even further.
Interior Features:
The all-new Ranger cabin features clever storage solutions and convenient features. The available wireless charger for mobile devices, a spacious center console storage bin, and large door pockets designed for quick access to frequently used tools and items are all available to owners.
A second upper glove box increases storage capacity, while under-seat rear cargo bins optimize second-row storage. The fold-flat rear seatbacks and ample space behind the seats make loading large objects a breeze.
Premium materials, improved fit and finish, and purposeful technology have been used to upgrade the interior of the 2024 Ranger.
The standard 8-inch digital instrument cluster, with a full-screen 12.4-inch cluster available, sets the tone for an immersive driving experience.
Meanwhile, the center touchscreen is available in two sizes: a standard 10.1-inch display or an impressive 12-inch touchscreen with Ford’s SYNC®4A system.
Drivers can easily access dedicated screens for drive modes, off-road data, navigation, music, and other vehicle controls with smart and connected features at their fingertips.
Physical buttons and knobs provide easy access to frequently used features such as climate control and radio volume.
Exterior Design:
The 2024 Ford Ranger’s exterior highlights its distinct identity with distinct grilles and front-end appearances tailored for XL, XLT, and Lariat models.
The Ranger’s muscular wheel arches are accentuated by the recognizable Ford C-clamp headlight treatment and bold shoulder lines running along the sides.
With C-clamp taillamps, the rear end mirrors the front, while the tailgate proudly displays the unmistakable “RANGER” stamp, leaving no doubt about the vehicle’s identity.
