Engine Options & Performance
Two engine options are available on the 2026 Ford Ranger lineup: the 2.3-liter EcoBoost and the 2.7-liter V6.
The turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine is standard, producing 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. While this engine is suitable for moving around town, for an added leap of premium performance, consider the 2.7-liter EcoBoost.
The twin-turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 engine generates 315 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, adding a bit more urgency and excitement to the everyday hustle.
Power is calling with a surprise third engine option, exclusive to the 2026 Ford Ranger Raptor.
The Raptor comes equipped with a 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6, capable of producing an impressive 405 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque. With a twin-turbo design, paddle shifters, and a 10-speed automatic transmission, you're always in command.
Exterior Design
The Ford Ranger's exterior design is the epitome of "look good, feel good," taking it a step further with practical upgrades.
Zone lighting makes working in the dark a breeze by illuminating the area around your truck, so you don't have to dig around for your tools and equipment.
LED headlamps with auto high beam and LED projector headlamps offer the perfect blend of safety and functionality, allowing you to see more of the road while alerting oncoming drivers to your presence.
If Goldilocks took one look at the five-foot truck bed, we think she would find it the perfect size--and the added features don't hurt. The 400W Pro Power Onboard delivers power when and where you need it. Accessing the bed is easier than ever--just open the hatch or use the integrated box side step for quick, easy access.
