DNA

IN ITS

STEEL FRONT BUMPER

The real deal. Not some flimsy fascia. Ranger
star ts with a steel front bumper, mounted to its
fully boxed frame for strength and durability.

FRONT TOW HOOKS

Prominently placed. Easy to use. Because if
you need them, you need them now. Ranger
4x4s and XLT/LARIAT 4x2s all come with 2 big
tow hooks. Right up front. Where they belong.

TOUGHNESS RUNS

Backed by over 100 years of Ford Truck engineering expertise, there’s no doubt the all-new Ranger meets
the legendary standards of Built Ford Tough.®We know you won’t settle for anything less.

To get there, we built Ranger with body-on-frame construction including a fully boxed, high-strength-steel
frame. We mounted the steel front and rear bumpers to that frame for outstanding durability.

We also gave Ranger a double-wishbone front suspension with rugged coil springs, monotube shocks and
forged-aluminum knuckles to help optimize ride and handling. Rear parabolic leaf springs were chosen for
their ability to provide the right mix of ride quality, durability and capability.

The all-new 2019 Ranger was developed specifically for North American truck buyers. So you can rest
assured, it’s got all the toughness it takes to get to your adventures.

FULLY BOXED FRAME

The backbone of every Ranger is a fully boxed, high-strength-steel
frame with 6 rugged crossmembers. It works together with the steel
front bumper and a frame-mounted rear tow bar to provide a solid
foundation for your on- and off-road exploits.

Ranger is the only truck in the Midsize Pickup
class to offer an advanced turbocharged gas

and efficient gas powertrains in its class, the 2.3L
EcoBoost®paired with its 10-speed partner is
the only powertrain Ranger needs. The engine’s
16-valve design features chain-driven dual
overhead cams, a twin-scroll turbocharger, a
forged-steel crankshaf t and connecting rods,
cast-aluminum pistons, and an overboost
function that lifts output on every gear change.
It’s designed to play hard and smart. Because
that’s a surefire path to a whole lotta fun.

POWERFUL

Class-leading 310 lb.-ft. of gas torque
gives Ranger serious get-up-and-go —
besting even the V6 engines in its class.

enough to take you and your stuff to the
top of that mountain — and beyond.

towing capacity, Trailer Sway Control
and more. The Trailer Tow Package gives
you best-in-class gas max. towing of

acceleration and braking – sending power and braking to each individual wheel

TERRAIN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Ranger features the only Terrain Management System1 in the class that works in both 4H and 4L,
offering you seamless shift-on-the -fly confidence over all sorts of surfaces. Just tap the “TM” button to
select any of the 4 modes. The system automatically calibrates engine responsiveness, transmission
gearing, and vehicle control systems to provide the optimum traction, driveability and performance.

Normal mode is ideal for everyday driving on wet or dry paved roads.

Grass/Gravel/Snow mode lets the transmission deliver earlier upshifts and less aggressive engine

torque distribution, limiting wheelslip to help improve traction on tricky terrain.

Mud/Ruts mode allows powertrain torque to be a bit more aggressive, limiting transmission upshifts
and letting the wheels spin to get you through the thick stuff.

Sand mode uses more aggressive throttle progression and holds gears longer to help transfer optimized
torque to the wheels. They can spin aggressively to maintain momentum and keep the fun going.
All-season, all-terrain adventure awaits.
