- Ford unveiled the new 2023 Ford Ranger mid-size pickup for worldwide markets, giving a sneak peek at the model available in the United States soon.

All-New Ford Ranger Overview
Ford is now overhauling its truck lineup, which begins with the new Maverick compact pickup and progresses through each segment to the heavy-duty F-series trucks.
The Ranger is next in line for a redesign to help it compete with mid-size SUVs from Chevy, Jeep, and Toyota, and we’re getting a sneak peek at the new model from the version that just debuted first for global markets.
The new Ranger should arrive in the United States by 2023, and we’re getting a sneak peek at the new model from the version that just debuted first for global markets.
How does Ford Ranger Look from Outside?
The new 2023 Ford Ranger has comparable C-shaped LED headlamps and bolder wheel arches, which now have a side step situated behind them, as the unibody Maverick grew into a mid-size body-on-frame truck.
Ford lengthened the Ranger’s wheelbase by 2.0 inches and broadened the track by 2.0 inches, both of which should improve the vehicle’s ride quality.
The new truck will have the same suspension configuration as the current vehicle, but the rear dampers will be mounted outside the frame rails.
How is the interior of the new Ford Ranger?
The Ranger’s old interior and infotainment system were in desperate need of an upgrade, and the new cabin appears to be a significant upgrade.
A 10.1-inch touchscreen comes standard, but Ford also offers a large vertically oriented 12.0-inch touchscreen, and both run Ford’s SYNC 4 infotainment system, which can regulate drive modes and display off-road controls.
Ford added stowage room in the doors and behind the rear seats and a new wireless charging station.
New Ford Ranger Engine Specifications
2023 Ford Ranger includes a turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine with 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission.
We expect it to have a maximum towing capacity of 7500 pounds, identical to the existing vehicle.
The global version has a six-speed manual transmission, although it is unlikely to be sold in the United States.
A Ranger Raptor vehicle is slated to come in the United States soon after the next-gen model, and it will feature a version of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter V-6 found in the Bronco.
When will the new Ford Ranger Launch?
The next-generation 2023 Ford Ranger will begin manufacturing in Thailand and South Africa next year.
In the United States, Ford Ranger is scheduled to arrive for the 2023 model year.
Ford Australia has confirmed that the debut of the next-generation Ranger will take place on November 24 and will be broadcast live on Facebook and YouTube.
