Review and specifications
2026 Ford Ranger
The redesigned Ranger may look like the outgoing model, but it is slightly larger, with a screen-filled modern interior, a wider bed, and a generous suite of advanced safety features. There is now just a single body style, the crew cab, offered in two- and four-wheel drive. The base 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine again has 270 hp. The midlevel option is a more powerful 315-hp, 2.7-liter turbocharged V6. The new off-road-focused Raptor has a 455-hp, 3.0-liter turbocharged V6. All engines use a 10-speed automatic transmission. The instrument cluster is either the standard 8-inch or the upgraded 12.4-inch display. Likewise, the center infotainment screen is either 10.1-inch or upgraded 12-inch display with the latest Sync 4A system. The standard active safety features include AEB with pedestrian detection. BSW, RCTW, active parking assistance and trailer assistance are available.

Brand context
About Ford
<p>Ford shifted away from cars this decade, focusing on SUVs and pickup trucks, with the Mustang as the lone exception. Fords are seldom leaders in their segments based on CR’s tests and surveys, but the small Maverick and full-sized F-150 trucks are notable standouts. Some other models score well enough to earn our recommendation, such as the Escape Hybrid and Bronco Sport. The Mustang Mach-E EV is Ford's highest-scoring current model. Overall, Ford's new car reliability is above average, but it varies, so used-car buyers should be mindful to check our ratings. </p><p><br/></p>
