The huge market value of the Ford Ranger will not change over the years as it joins the mid-size pickup lineup. The Ford Ranger 2021 has two models, the basic XL and Lariat, the second is definitely more luxurious and upscale, and it also has both rear and SUV drive, with two body designs for each of them, with two beds. The car is powered by a 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine with a turbocharger and a 10-speed automatic transmission. This as certainly enables it to drive off-road, difficult and full of obstacles and road problems effortlessly, and we do not negate here the role of its very strong tires that support this feature.
What's new for Ford Ranger 2021?
The Ford Ranger excels in performance quality, with a suitable-sized cab and rear-engine in an impressive configuration, and the equipment level has been reduced, which reduces weight and definitely increases speed. Unfortunately, however, this car is devoid of forward collision warnings that make the driver aware of an object in front of the car and automatically reduces the speed through the automatic braking system. Nevertheless, the Ford Ranger remains the best pick-up option, with its impressive cab and proven four-wheel drive. Other additions to the car include the off-road suspension, the comfortable bed liner, heated seats and the leather-wrapped steering wheel, in addition to an impressive 8-inch touch screen information system.
In terms of design and colors, the car features an 18-inch black grille with accents and a striking oval logo, and the four new colors added include Carbon and Cactus Gray, Cyber Orange and Velocity Blue. All this undoubtedly gives it an unparalleled beauty.
2021 Ford Ranger Engine, transmission and performance
The turbocharged, four-cylinder Ford Ranger four-cylinder engine with a capacity of 2.3 liters and 270 horsepower boasts an impressive torque of 310 lb-ft and a beautifully designed 10-speed automatic transmission. This makes it extremely fast, with less weight, despite the great luxury that distinguishes its shape. As mentioned previously, the car has two versions for rear and SUV drive, in addition to a terrain management system that enables the car to drive on all types of terrain, no matter how bumpy it is, with four driving modes including the normal mode, the mode designated for driving on both grass, gravel and snow, the mode for mud, and finally the Sandbox mode.
Towing capacity and payload
Certainly, the aforementioned features indicate that the towing force of the Ford Ranger will be very high, as it can tow up to 7,500 pounds, which describes it as having tremendous power smoothly and consistently, while its payload is 1860 pounds.
Fuel Consumption
The average fuel consumption of the Ford Ranger is approximately 21/26 mpg highway for rear-wheel drive and approximately 24/20 mpg / gallon for SUV drive. This is somewhat high fuel consumption as it is not classified as a fuel economy car.
2021 Ford Ranger Interior, comfort and cargo
There are two models for the Ford Ranger cab, either the Extended Cab (SuperCab) or the Crew Cab (SuperCrew), the crew cab accommodates five passengers and comes with four independent full-size doors, while the Extended Cab accommodates four passengers and has two full doors and two half-size doors. It is unfortunate that the materials from which the cab is made are not of the required quality, as they are made of reinforced plastic and improved with elegant decorations that give it an amazing appearance, but this does not negate that both cabins are comfortable and easy to use, and this is what makes the Ford Ranger an option for many fans of these cars.
Infotainment and communication.
The infotainment, connectivity and entertainment features of the Ford Ranger are modest, as it has a standard four-speaker sound system and has only one power outlet, and a Wi-Fi hotspot enables a good number of users to connect to the Internet. In addition to the presence of some smart applications that increase a kind of luxury for users, but this feature is not present in all models. Some models also provide integrated navigation systems and ten-speaker audio systems, and this is what only a specific group of people is interested in, not all of them.
2021 Ford Ranger Safety Features
The Ford Ranger is distinguished by its ability to maintain the safety of users when they are exposed to major traffic accidents, as the safety features in the car include forward collision warning, automatic braking system, blind spot alert, rear traffic, adaptive cruise control and other features that increase the safety of users when driving. Despite all of this, it is not classified as the safest car according to international classifications. Also, Ford Ranger owners usually get automatic engine and car warranty when buying it that covers a certain number of years and miles. However, its users cannot get free maintenance capabilities like the rest of the peers of this car, but it is certain that its warranty fulfills the purpose to some extent.
