Ford’s Mid-size Ranger Wins 2025 North American Truck of the Year Award

The all-new Ford Ranger has earned the 2025 North American Truck of the Year™ award—given by the North American Car, Utility and Truck awards committee—reinforcing its dominance in the competitive midsize pickup segment.

NACTOY jurors spent countless hours assessing vehicles across multiple criteria, from innovation and safety to performance and value. Their comprehensive testing process ensures only the most exceptional vehicles earn this recognition.

“In a year filled with outstanding contenders, our jurors went above and beyond to identify the absolute best,” said NACTOY President Jeff Gilbert. “Our winners represent the pinnacle of automotive innovation, design, and value proposition.”

Offering the ideal balance between rugged capability and sophisticated technology, the new Ranger demonstrates Ford’s understanding of pickup truck owners’ needs. This latest achievement marks Ford Truck’s fifth consecutive year of recognition from the North American Car, Truck, and Utility Vehicle of the Year™ awards committee:

• 2024 – Ford F-Series Super Duty won the 2024 North American Truck of the Year
