Introducing the Ford Ranger Plug-in Hybrid with Pro Power Onboard
September 19, 2023
Categories:
Arriving in early 2025, the Ford Ranger Plug-in Hybrid will be available for sale from Authorised EV Dealers.
Ranger Plug-in Hybrid will deliver more torque than any other Ranger, thanks to a 2.3-litre Ford EcoBoost turbo petrol engine paired with an electric motor and rechargeable battery system. It can be driven in pure electric mode for more than 45 kilometres1 without using a drop of fuel or producing tailpipe emissions, helping customers save at the pump.
This EV only capability will be extremely useful for Australian Ranger customers, with more than half travelling 40km or less per day, and over 80% travelling in metro areas3.
The maximum braked towing capacity of the Ranger Plug-In Hybrid is 3,500kg4 – the same as the current Ranger line-up.
The Ford Ranger Plug-in Hybrid will also feature Pro Power Onboard™2 , enabling customers to power their tools and appliances on a worksite or remote campsite by plugging them into power outlets embedded in both the cargo bed and the cabin. That means noisy, bulky, heavy generators can be left at home, leaving more space in the cargo bed for other gear and equipment.
In addition to having on-demand electricity, Ranger Plug-in Hybrid’s EV drive modes will give customers more flexibility in deciding how and when to use the EV battery power.
The Ford Ranger Plug-In Hybrid also comes equipped with the Ranger’s proven four-wheel-drive capability, selectable drive modes and advanced driver safety and driver assist features5.
