History has a way of coming full circle in many situations, and this extends even to the vehicles that are produced for drivers across the North American continent. Ford has recently unveiled plans to revive the iconic Bronco SUV, and in a pleasing twist of fates, the Ranger has been given new life as well! We can’t wait to see this industry-favourite mid-size pickup in action, but beforehand, our Sherwood Ford team will be taking you through the all-new 2019 Ford Ranger performance capabilities and specs!
Like the rest of the Ford lineup, the 2019 Ranger has been built to supply you with all the adrenaline, performance and precision that you desire. Under the twin-power dome hood, it houses a 2.3-litre EcoBoost® engine designed for efficiency and capability, thanks to direct fuel injection, a twin-scroll turbocharger and 16-valve design, it’s capable of producing up to 270 horsepower and a class-leading 310 pound-feet of torque. That’s more than any other mid-size pickup on the Canadian market!

---|---|---|---|
Base Engine | 2.3L EcoBoost I4, 10-Sp SelectShift, SOTF 4X4 | 2.7L I4, 6-sp auto 4X4 | 2.5L DI I54, 6-sp manual or auto, 4x4 |
Horsepower | 270 | 159 | 200 |
Torque (lb.-ft.) | 310 | 180 | 191 |
For added durability, the engine features a forged-steel crankshaft and connecting rods, and chain-driven dual overhead cams. Paired with a segment-exclusive 10-speed automatic transmission it creates one of the most versatile, powerful and efficient powertrains in the segment.
Thanks to the high-strength frame on which its built, the 2019 Ranger provides exceptional towing and best-in-class payload capacities to go along with its smooth-flowing ride. More specifically, the Ranger will be able to handle a maximum tow rating of 7,500 pounds, and a payload rating of up to 1,650 pounds. Not only are these far and away better than many of the Ranger’s competitors, but they also ensure that it’s one of the strongest and most durable pickups that you could ever drive.

Also, there’s substantial intelligence to go with the new Ranger’s brawny motor. You’ll also be treated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, which is exclusive to the mid-size truck class. This translates to an unrivaled blend of raw power and intelligent performance in the same package.
