The new Ford Ranger was announced earlier this year, but it will not be available in Europe until 2023. Despite this, the blue oval brand has verified what has long been rumored: a sportier, more violent version. It will make its debut in the shape of the 2022 Ford Ranger Raptor, which has already been teased with a sound clip.
There are some international markets where the Ford Ranger Raptor 2022 can be found. It’s a benchmark, with an aesthetic aggressiveness and sportiness so distinct that they can’t avoid a true sales vein. The oval brand is so aware of it that it did not miss the unveiling of the new generation of pick-ups a few days ago to affirm the coming of a model with this more unique moniker.
We had a chance to view one of the first prototypes of the new Ford Ranger Raptor moving about America in the midst of last winter, with a more gross configuration and outright off-road tires. A model that had vanished from the test scene but has since reappeared on Ford Australia’s official website. Because he submitted a QR code that was displayed during the launch of the new Ranger, indicating the progress of the sports version.
Make sure your ear is in tune. In the 2023 Ford Ranger Raptor, the sound refers to a powerful gasoline turbo V6.
The next Ford Ranger Raptor will have excellent off-road performance.
On these lines, the one you have. In just a few seconds, you won’t be able to see a detail of the model, but you will be able to see the date: 02.2022, implying that Ford will practically make its debut next year with the unveiling of this model, and it is apparent that the sound does not refer to either of the two diesel versions for which European market commercialization has been declared.
The raspy sound, in fact, is a definite indication that the brand will use a gasoline engine. Of course, this isn’t about the four-cylinder 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine used on the American brand’s sportiest models, thus, as we suspected from spy photographs taken during the test phase, one of the mechanical choices considered was a strong 3.0-liter turbo V6 petrol engine.
A sound that is more in tune with this architecture and more representative of the American market than the European market.
This is the limit that cannot be exceeded because it is more inexpensive than the 3.5-liter twin-turbo that is put on the F-150 Raptor, which is configured to give a maximum power of 450 hp. The manufacturer plans to attain a maximum of 410 horsepower, which will be combined with a configuration and customized chassis settings and suspensions to set it apart from the larger sports pickups. The secrets will be revealed in February 2022, but the debut will be postponed until 2023.
