What’s new for the 2024 Ford Ranger?
The first thing you’ll notice about this new midsize truck is its increasingly rugged style. Outside, the new Ranger borrows styling cues from the bigger F-150, with a bold new front-end design.
Hop inside, and you’ll settle into a redesigned SuperCrew cabin, featuring two spacious rows for up to five passengers. Its new SYNC 4 infotainment system sports a 12.4-inch vertical touchscreen and the wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. And a newly available 12.4-inch digital gauge cluster illuminates your driving data.
Will the 2024 Ford Ranger have a V6?
Yes, the Ranger is finally getting a V6 engine! Available on the XLT and Lariat trim models, you might recognize the 2.7-liter twin-turbo V6 from the F-150 lineup. In the midsize Ranger, this engine feels stronger than ever, powering forward with 315 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque.
The base Ranger XL still comes standard with last year’s powertrain, the turbo 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine. And it’ll still impress you with its mid-range torque and excellent acceleration.
Also new for 2024 is the Ranger Raptor, a midsize truck equipped for an especially rugged off-road experience. It comes with its own exclusive engine, a 3.0-liter V6 engine that’s seriously fast, with 405 horsepower.
There are three 2024 Ranger engine options available, depending on trim model:
- Standard turbocharged 2.3L four-cylinder engine (270 horsepower, 310 lb-ft of torque)
- Optional twin-turbo 2.7L V6 (315 hp, 400 lb-ft)
- Raptor 3.0L V6 (405 hp, 430 lb-ft of torque)
- 10-speed automatic transmission
- Rear-wheel drive or optional four-wheel drive
How can I configure the 2024 Ford Ranger?
These midsize trucks are only available with one body style, the SuperCrew cabin and 5-foot bed. Three familiar trim levels — the base XL, mid-level XLT, and Lariat — make up the main Ranger lineup. Then there’s the new Ranger Raptor, an off-road-ready trim model that’s as stylish as it is capable.
Which features are available for the 2024 Ford Ranger?
With three available trim levels, plus the new Ranger Raptor model, you can choose how much you want to spend on interior luxury and performance upgrades.
The Ford Ranger introduces many of the features found in the bigger F-150, including the Pro Trailer Backup Assist system. Available for the XLT and Lariat trim models, this technology makes steering a trailer in the right direction as simple as turning a knob on the dash. You can also add Zone Lighting, shining an extra light in front, rear, or sides of your Ranger to help you unload cargo after dark. You can also add in-bed power outlets to charge your devices or handheld drills.
The Ranger’s new tailgate features an integrated ruler to help you measure materials, C-clamp openings to help you hold materials in place, and an integrated bottle opener so you can help yourself to a cold one after a long day.
The new Ranger also features the SYNC 4 system, with a 12.4-inch vertical touchscreen and the wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
