FORD RANGER RAPTOR

The 2021 Ford Ranger Raptor X has major styling changes including over the top stripes running along the bonnet, roof and tailgate as well as side stripes.

The grille, door handles, rear bumper cover, tailgate handle, fender vent and foglight bezel will be given a new matte black finish. While the wheels remain the same, they have been given an Asphalt Black matte finish.

Its Ford Performance interior features a new accent package with red contrast stitching on the steering wheel and dash replacing the original blue stitching, while Hydrographic and Black Alley accents across the dashboard and door round out the interior enhancements.

The Ranger Raptor X is expected to be in Ford dealerships across the country from July.

Ford Ranger Raptor X features:
Extended leg sports bar.
Red front tow hooks.
Black Ford logo on tailgate.
Matt finish grille, front bumper, over fenders, door handles, tailgate handle, fender vent, mirror scalps, fog lamp bezel, rear bumper cover and wheel caps.
Red contrast stitching on the steering wheel and dash replacing the original blue stitching
Hydrographic and Black Alley accents across the dashboard and door cards

Ranger Raptor X is powered by a 157kW/500Nm Bi-Turbo engine through a 10-speed automatic transmission.

It has a Terrain Management System which includes Baja mode, inspired by Mexico’s famous Baja Desert Rally. In this mode, vehicle systems like Traction Control are loosened to allow spirited off-road driving with less intervention from the vehicle’s on-board systems. Gear selection is optimised for maximum performance, and the transmission mapping will hold gears longer and downshift more rapidly.
