The 2022 Ford Ranger is brilliantly manufactured to make outdoor adventures wildly electrifying. From a smooth performance to the latest driver-assistance features and a glamorous interior and exterior, this pick-up truck certainly ticks all the boxes. Here’s everything you need to know about this truck before going to your dealership.
1. Exterior Design
Drivers can choose from either the 5-seat SuperCab or the
4-seat SuperCrew. Thrilling exterior characteristics include an upright grille,
a long beltline, and an extended wheelbase to create fewer frontal overhangs
and enhance off-road capabilities.
Ford provides three trim levels in the new Ranger; XL, XLT, and Lariat. There
are also several exterior color paint options to choose from, including ingot
silver, lightning blue, shadow black, hot pepper red, forged green, and more.
2. Performance
Under the hood, every new Ranger uses a turbocharged
2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine that cranks 270 horsepower and 310 lb. ft of
torque. A ten-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive are standard
while maintaining smooth gear shifts that allow drivers to stay focused while
driving.
The engine also offers an Automatic Start/Stop Technology that helps to
minimize fuel consumption. What’s more impressive is the truck’s fuel economy,
which features 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.
3. Infotainment and Connectivity
The 2022 Ranger boasts a plethora of modern infotainment and
connectivity features to entertain everyone in the car during trips. The base
XL trim comes standard with connectivity features such as a 3.5-inch display, a
4-speaker AM/FM audio system, a USB port, and a WIFI hotspot that connects up
to ten devices.
If the standard touchscreen isn’t big enough, you may opt for an 8-inch touchscreen
system, compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, offered in the Lariat
and XLT variants. Other infotainment features offered as upgrades are dual-zone
automatic climate control, a 10-speaker audio system, two more USB ports,
navigation, and satellite radio.
4. Driver-Assistance Systems
The new Ford Ranger allows you to access some of the most advanced driver-aid systems to keep you safer while traveling and more aware of everything around your car. Every new Ranger features a rearview camera and a forward collision warning with pedestrian detection that detects a possible collision with a vehicle or pedestrian in front and immediately warns the driver.
The forward automatic emergency braking identifies a potential crash and automatically activates the brakes to stop or slow down a car before an impact. Additional driver-assist features are blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, auto high beams, and rear and front parking sensors.
The 2022 Ranger offers a magnificent blend of comfort and powerful on-and-off-road capabilities. The extended 5-seater cab has four full-size doors that make it easier for taller family members or friends to get in and out as many times as they’d wish to.
