A Legacy of Strength, Reinvented for 2025
Ford engineers didn't just update the Ranger, they completely reimagined it. Built on a high-strength steel frame with upgraded suspension and chassis tuning, the 2025 Ranger delivers a smoother, more controlled ride both on and off the pavement.
The lineup includes the powerful Ranger XL, XLT, Lariat, and Raptor trims, each offering unique capability and style. The new Raptor trim in particular, developed by Ford Performance, has drawn significant attention, boasting a twin-turbocharged 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 engine delivering 405 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque.
With class-leading towing and hauling capability, a fully boxed frame, and cutting-edge technology, it's no surprise that the North American Car, Truck, and Utility Vehicle of the Year™ (NACTOY) jurors recognized the 2025 Ranger as the leader in its class.
