What powers the next-gen Ford Ranger Raptor?
The next-gen Ford Ranger Raptor is powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 that churns out 288ps and 491Nm of torque.How did Ford Performance tune the next-gen Ranger Raptor to deliver better performance?
The next-gen Ranger Raptor's mill gets an anti-lag system that leaves the turbochargers rotating for up to three seconds after the driver releases the pedal, allowing for faster acceleration out of corners or through the gears when the driver reengages the throttle. For optimal performance, the engine is configured with a separate turbocharging boost profile for each of the innovative 10-speed automatic transmission’s gears.The second-generation Ranger Raptor was unwrapped earlier this year and is set to reach customers in late summer, with a starting price of start at £57,340 (around P3.7 million).
In a statement, Ford Pro Europe General Manager Hans Schep commented on the pre-order. “Being able to build their dream next-gen Ranger Raptor is now a reality for our customers and they can experiment with the range of options with our online configurator,” he said.
“Whatever the combination, Ranger Raptor will always deliver its trademark ultimate off-road driving experience.”
The 2023 Ranger Raptor can be optioned with a Raptor Splash Decal Pack, exterior “Raptor Pack” that includes a cab rollover bar and power roll top tonneau cover. New Code Orange premium paint job can also be optioned for the new Raptor.
Developed by Ford Performance, the sporty version of Europe’s best-selling pickup introduces a twin-turbo three-liter EcoBoost V6 engine, Fox Live Valve dampers, and seven selectable drive modes to offer the best performance on a variety of terrains.
The 2023 Ranger Raptor is even equipped with active exhaust system that delivers adjustable engine sounds with four exhaust modes, which is tuned for different driving scenarios.
Occupants of the new Ranger Raptor also benefit from the latest technology controlled via the 12.4-inch all-digital cluster and 12-inch central touchscreen. The latter boasts of Ford’s new-generation SYNC 4connectivity and entertainment system.
