This truck is bound to turn heads and pave new roads.

The piēce de résistance is the matching interior and exterior which compliments the truck’s immense power. Keep reading further to know more about new Ford Ranger specifications and its awe-inspiring performance. We offer Bridgend ford to you.

New Ford Ranger Specifications

Power for all life’s adventures

Built to give you all the power you will ever need, the Ford Ranger comes with three different engines to choose from, including the ultra-beefy 3.0 litre V6 diesel. The 10 speed automatic gearbox and permanent four-wheel drive or electric shift-on-the-fly system make this beast a perfect go anywhere work truck — that even an adventurer can love. To make this truck even better, the front wheels have been moved forward an extra 50 mm — leaving room for the radiator to breathe or even extra upgrades in the future. 

New Ford Ranger on the Go 

This truck was meant to take mud as a trophy. The frame has been lifted, allowing for an improved fording depth of 800 mm — so much better than the 500 mm of other trucks. The raise in the height also allows extra protection for the belly of the truck and the ability to don up to 20” tyres. The Ranger will go through heavy rain, deep mud, or the slickest ice, and make it almost seem like your everyday drive. It will conquer any path you go down, with six drive modes to choose from and an improved chassis. It is also the magic combination for any condition of city driving — wet, dry, icy, or tight turning. All Ford Ranger specifications combined, this truck is capable of going on some of the most extreme off-roading situations — even with a full, heavy load. 

A beast inside and out 

The new Ford Ranger is wider than any previous model, giving it a beefy look plus improving its performance. The whole truck was designed to match the overall power it has — inside and out — this truck is the epitome of a beast. C shaped lights in the front, black and chrome details, spectacular trim, plus a buffed-up body size compliments the power under its hood. Alloy wheels, chrome trim, and leather interior make up the add-ons you can have based on the choice of one of the five trims available. There is powerful tech inside with dual screens for all your functionality needs, plus digital dials that can be customized to show what’s important to you.

New Ford Ranger Lease specifications allow you to haul it all 

This truck was meant to be a powerful workhorse with everything you would ever need. The up to 1,296 kg of stowability and extra tow payload of up to 3.5 tonnes, does not disappoint. With the extra width in the cargo area, there’s plenty of room for a standard EuroPallet between the wheelbases. The tail gate is where all the real action can be found. Designed to help you do more, the tailgate can hold and bear extra weight plus leave room for all the long heavy items you need to haul — or serve as the entertainment zone when the work is over. Do it all with the incredible Ford Ranger specifications such as integrated cargo management system, and have the optional 400watt power socket outlet installed, then you’re set to go. You can even use it as a workbench, complete with a cupholder, built-in ruler, and clamp pockets. If you have a shorty on your workforce, or you just don’t want to climb, there is a step hidden away in the bodywork right behind the rear wheels. If you have a rather large crew, you can select the super cab body style for an extra rear seat. There are also two other body styles available, including standard and double cab. 

Staying connected and tech minded

Ford knows the importance of staying connected to your fleet, office, and the outside world, that’s why they included the Sync 4a infotainment with up to a 12″ screen, wireless charging, cloud connectivity, and voice command control. To keep you connected to your truck or the whole fleet, the FordPass app will allow you to monitor real-time truck status, give you health alerts, and allow you to control certain features such as the zone lighting system, remote start, or the lock/unlock functions. 

So many options

With a few Ford Ranger Lease models to choose from, there are also going to be over 150 accessory options available when the Ranger hits the UK, giving you the ability to have a one of a kind truck designed to suit your custom work needs and pleasure as well. We will take about a few of the Ford Ranger specifications that add functionality, and a few that add comfort for now. Depending on the trim and model you choose, you can have added safety for your load with an electric rolling cover or a manual roll top. If you have to work late at night, the team at Ford has thought of you, too. You can have the optional Zone Lighting package installed to be able to see all around the truck in the darkness — they can even be controlled remotely with FordPass. For those tricky blind spots and better back up assistance, you can have a 360-degree camera and the technology package with extra driver assist modes added to your Ranger.

There’s been tremendous hype about the New Ford Ranger Lease that is set to hit United Kingdom roads sometime in early 2023 and for very good reason. At Swiss Vans, we are definitely excited. Part workhorse, part off-roading adventurer, the powerful new Ford Ranger is going to take the pick-up market by storm. With a larger wheelbase and increased overall length, various body styles and high-performance engine specifications, the new Ford Ranger has a lot to offer. Keeping that powerful vehicle connected to the road – or dirt if you’re off-roading – Ford Ranger alloy wheels are available as either options or standard inclusions, depending on the model trim specifications.

Alloy wheels can often be dismissed as simply decorative because their good looks are certainly eye-catching. However, there are a lot of practical and performance reasons to reconsider your wheel choices and upgrade to an alloy wheel, especially on a pick-up that will be working hard and maybe playing even harder. So, what is an alloy wheel, anyway?

What makes a wheel an alloy wheel?

Technically, all automotive wheels are made from a metal alloy but not all wheels are alloy wheels. How does this work? A metal alloy is simply a combination of metals or metals and other elements that are blended and treated to produce a specific effect. The basic form of the most common standard wheels is steel, which is a metal alloy made up of around 98% iron and 2% carbon. Standard steel wheels tend to be heavy, but they get the job done. In the automotive world, the term ‘alloy wheels’ refers to nonferrous (which means they aren’t made from iron) wheels.

Typically, alloy wheels are comprised of a different combination of metals, most frequently 98% Aluminium and 2% of another metal or metals which can include titanium, nickel, zinc, or copper. Another common term that refers to a type of alloy wheel is ‘mags’ which refers to wheels made from a magnesium-based alloy. Aluminium – alloy. Magnesium – mags. Makes sense. Magnesium is the lightest of the three base wheel metals, but it is also more corrosive which can result in a compromise on durability.

The lightness, strength and durability of aluminium means it has become the most frequently used base metal for alloy wheels. Alloy wheels can be manufactured in a variety of ways including forging and casting. Compared to standard pressed steel wheels, there are many different casting techniques, including gravity cast, high pressure diecast, and low pressure diecast, which, when used in conjunction with specific repeated heating and cooling techniques, create alloy wheels with different weight, performance, durability, appearance and price outcomes in the New Ford Ranger Lease

Clearly, there’s a lot more to Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels than just being shiny.

The wheels go ‘round and ‘round, isn’t that enough?

Will steel wheels keep your Ford Ranger moving? Yes. Should you settle for steel wheels on your new Ford if alloy wheels aren’t included in your chosen trim option? There are many performance reasons why an upgrade to Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels is a very good idea. The New Ford Ranger can carry a huge load capacity of 1309kg on a single cab model, and 1179kg on the double cab models. That load capacity combined with the overall vehicle mass is a lot of weight going onto the wheels and the brakes.

That combined mass has the potential to become very cumbersome. One of the greatest benefits of Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels is they are stronger than both steel and mag wheels, so they have less flex when cornering resulting in improved handling. With a large pick-up carrying heavy loads, improved handling is extremely valuable. The decreased weight of Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels, when compared to standard steel wheels, also results in reduced unsprung mass which can also help improve handling and reduce the stress on the suspension, which in turn results in a smoother ride.

Alloy wheels have superior heat dissipation, which reduces the likelihood of brakes overheating or failing and extends brake life through reduced wear and tear. Again, with the heavy loads most Ford Rangers will be carrying, alloy wheels offer increased, safety, better handling and reduced brake wear and tear which all combine to improve fuel efficiency long-term.

In these times of seemingly ever-increasing inflation, these types of savings can be worth pursuing.

Which trims have what type of New Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels?

Depending on the trim level chosen, Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels may already be included as standard with your Ranger. However, even with alloy wheels included, upgraded options may still be available.

The base model XL comes with standard 16-inch steel wheels in silver with a silver, steel spare wheel.

The XLT includes 16-inch Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels in silver with a black steel spare as standard or an upgraded option of 17-inch silver steel wheels with a black steel spare wheel. The XLT also includes further upgraded options for 17-inch alloy wheels in either silver or Panther Black, both with a black, steel spare wheel.

The Limited comes with 17-inch alloy wheels in silver with a black steel spare wheel as standard with an upgrade option to the Panther Black 17-inch alloy wheels available.

The Wildtrak includes 18-inch alloy machined wheels in Boulder Grey with a fully matching spare wheel.

The Raptor is fitted with 17-inch Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels in Dyno Grey, again with a fully matching spare wheel included.

But why settle for just the options from Ford for your new Ranger?

Can I upgrade my Ranger alloy wheels further?

Yes, you absolutely can upgrade your wheels and tyres even further beyond the options included with the New Ford Ranger finance that are listed here. If you’ve decided you want your Ford Ranger to have the best connection with the road and the off-road, at Swiss Vans we stock an extensive range of Ford Ranger Alloy Wheels and can assist you in choosing the right size wheels and tyres to get the best, most durable, safest, and most responsive drive possible.

The 2023 Ford Ranger is set to hit our shores very soon, and the anticipation is just growing by the day. There are a few models expected to come out, which will also leave you with a few trim and cab options. Powered by an all-new 3.0 litre V6 292 HP engine with a 10 speed automatic gearbox and tons of extras, this truck is ready to hit the road or make its own. As all the American Ford F-150 or F-250 lovers out there, this truck was designed to mimic the power and functionality of the F-150, while being the perfect fit for European city driving as well. Let’s dive a little deeper into some of the reasons this truck is gathering such hype. I will also talk about when you can place your reservation for a build slot and expect to see it on the showroom floors.

Models and trims

Ford has come up with some heavy-duty trim levels in Ranger 2023; though not all models and trims will be released in the UK at the same time, there are several models of the Ford Ranger set to be released in the UK. You will have three choices of body styles — single cab, double or crew cab, and super cab. The super cab is the best offer for seating in a work truck, as it comes with a second rear seat. To add more ability to customise your 2023 Ford Ranger, it will come with the choice of four trims — XL, XLT, Limited, and Wildtrak. With all these choices and combinations, there is sure to be a perfect build for you, whether you need stowability / towability or passenger space, off-road capability, or an all-together strong combination.

Looks as Ford tough as it drives — inside and out

The new Ranger was built to fit the city streets in Europe, yet mimic the American F-150. The 2023 Ford Ranger with its new look lives up to the term “Built Ford Tough” inside and out. With a permanent four-wheel drive, a big beefy motor, and tons of new driver assist modes, this truck can take your business anywhere. The interior is a techy’s dream, with dual screens for the 12″ touch screen infotainment system, as well as one to replace the traditional gauges. The looks get better with the addition of leather seats, lots of legroom, and even the possibility of more leather to deck the dashboard, depending on your desired trim.

The exterior is just as beefy! The truck has been enlarged in every way possible. It’s wider, longer, taller, and can haul more than any Ford UTE ever made. With the increased height and up to 20″ diamond cut or machined alloy wheels, the new ground clearance allows you to tread through mud and water up to 800 mm — an astonishing improvement from the old fording depth of 500 mm. The team at Ford then gave this truck chrome trim, black wheels, unique head and tail lamps, and so much more. Completing the look to make a truck unlike any other that can drive through almost anything, and make the mud that sticks to it just look like a trophy.

Payload

As if you need another reason to be excited about the 2023 Ford Ranger, the truck can haul more than ever before. It can haul up to 1296 kg and tow an impressive 3.5 tonnes.  The cargo area is wider than before, with the ability to utilise the tailgate as more stowing space. You can carry all the long or wide materials you need, or even fit at least one full size EuroPallet in the cargo area. If you need to ferry people, a standard cab is spacious, or you can opt for the super cab and have so much more space for people. You may have to give up a bit of cargo space, but the roof can hold enough weight for a four-man roof tent, so you truly won’t miss much. The thought that went into this all new Ford work truck is uncanny. The tailgate can even double as stowing space or a workbench — with a built-in ruler and pockets to attach clamps. The tailgate even has built-in cup holders and a bottle opener, so you can party after the job is done or camp out after a long off-road drive. As an added surprise, Ford can even install a 400w power socket in the bed for all your tools and toys alike. It even comes with an integrated management system for all your cargo needs.

Expected pricing

The prices for the 2023 Ford Ranger have not been set in stone yet. The pricing that has been mentioned through the rumour mill sounds very fair, considering the pure power, space, strength, and style of this truck. According to what is out for price estimates, we could be looking at prices between £27,500 for the base model and trim, up to £48,000 for the highest trim plus all the extras.
