Spicy colours, extra equipment and a
new engine for Ford's Ranger Wildtrak will make this a
special edition not to be missed at this year's Commercial
Vehicle Show. Already known for strong pulling power and
car-like comfort, the new Ranger Wildtrak adds further
style and capabilities to the range.
This latest model has rear box rail extensions,
a stylish, aerodynamic sports bar, lower sports cladding
and tail lamp protectors to enhance its appearance. Side
intake 'gills' add to the visual effect. New integrated
door mirror indicators and puddle lamps provide additional
differentiation and Wildtrak decals on the front, side
and rear identify it as a special Ford Ranger.
Combined with these stylish features are new alloy wheels,
a new sports front grille, side steps, an aluminium style
front over rider and roof rails, an integrated bedliner
and a rear protection bar with integrated park distance
control.
The cabin features all-new heated seats
in leather and perforated alcantara with orange tricot
backing, floor mats with Wildtrak logo, new sports steering
wheel, dash-mounted off-road 'information centre', premium
interior and footwell lighting. New Wildtrak scuff plates
complete the package.
The Ford Ranger Wildtrak is available with an exclusive
range of unique two-tone colours: Chilli Orange or Passion
Red combined with Titanium Grey on the lower part of the
body for a truly striking appearance. Other body colours
that can be combined with Titanium Grey are Steel Silver,
Andaman Blue, Storm Black and Strato Blue.
Under the bonnet is a new and powerful
3.0-litre TDCi engine with 156PS and 380Nm of torque.
A five-speed manual transmission is tuned for fuel economy
while maintaining good overtaking ability.
Steve Kimber, commercial vehicles director, Ford of Britain,
said: "The latest Ford Ranger is selling faster than
the previous model. The new Wildtrak will take us deeper
into the fiercely competitive pick-up market with a truck
that really makes a statement."
