Drivers in Florence, Sumter, Conway, and Lumberton can learn even more about the new Ranger with this comprehensive 2021 Ford Ranger review from Mike Reichenbach Ford.
Ranger Engines and Performance
The Ranger comes equipped with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. The engine shuttles power through a 10-speed automatic transmission to the rear wheels or all four wheels.
On the road, the Ranger offers a cushioned ride quality that feels more like a crossover than a pickup. The suspension absorbs most road imperfections for passenger comfort, and it’s a fun drive with its sharp steering and composed handling. For off-roading, you can add options packages with features like skid plates, a locking rear differential, and a terrain management system. The FX2, FX4, and Tremor packages come with trail-ready options.
Correctly equipped, the Ranger can tow up to 7,500 pounds.
Interior Comfort and Space
The Ranger is represented by extended-cab and crew-cab models. The extended cab gets a 6-foot bed, while the crew cab gets a 5-foot bed. The payload ranges from 1,560 pounds to 1,860 pounds. For more cargo versatility, you can add the Bed Utility package, which includes a drop-in bed liner and a 12-volt bed outlet.
The extended-cab model seats four people, while the crew-cab model seats five people. Both front and rear seats are well cushioned and supportive, giving the driver and front passenger a commanding view of the road. Adult passengers enjoy plenty of headroom and legroom in the rear seats, but the crew cab is the top choice if you’ll have passengers regularly. Dual-zone climate control and remote start are available for more comfort.

The Ranger offers a SYNC® 3 infotainment system with a logical menu and a responsive 8-inch touchscreen. Bluetooth® connectivity and Wi-Fi hot spot are included.

For safety, the Ranger includes automatic emergency braking and forward-collision warning, a feature that apprises you of possible frontal crashes and activates the brakes. MyKey® is also included, which lets you set speed and sound limits for inexperienced drivers. Parking sensors and rear cross-traffic alert with trailer coverage, a feature that warns you about vehicles in your path when reversing, are among the available features.
