2025 Ford Ranger review
More than two years on from launch, the Ford Ranger is still the dual-cab king in Australia. A drive in the XLT reminded us why.

2024 Ford Ranger review
There are many takes on the Ford Ranger theme, but the XLT V6 4x4 pick-up could be one of the best for a dual-purpose family ute.

2023 Ford Ranger Platinum review
The Ford Ranger Platinum is a more luxurious offering than the Wildtrak, aimed at lifestyle buyers after an SUV-like load hauler.

2023 Ford Ranger XLS review
The new Ranger has been the dual-cab ute benchmark since launch, and even the one-up-from-base XLS proves that a workhorse can be polished.

2023 Ford Ranger Sport Bi-Turbo review
Is it "settling" to opt for the Ford Ranger's bi-turbo diesel four-cylinder engine over the new V6, or is the smaller engine the one to pick?

2023 Ford Ranger Wildtrak V6 review
The Ranger is staking its claim to be the king of the dual-cab utes, and the Wildtrak V6 is the crown jewel in the regular Ranger line-up.

2023 Ford Ranger XLT V6 review
The XLT badge might be associated with workhorses, but its price and technology are in keeping with what you'd expect from rival flagships.

2020 Ford Ranger XLT Bi-Turbo review
This is the core Ford Ranger variant, which best occupies the middle ground between work truck and premium pickup. Despite its advancing age, it's still an understandable top-seller.

2020 Ford Ranger Wildtrak Bi-Turbo review
The Ford Ranger remains one of Australia's best-selling vehicles, despite knocking on the door of 10 years old. It doesn't take long behind the wheel of a Wildtrak to work out why.

Other Ute to consider
The Ford Ranger's most direct rival is the Toyota HiLux, which has been on sale in its current form since 2015.
The Ranger also competes against the recently updated Isuzu D-Max and Mazda BT-50 siblings, as well as the Volkswagen Amarok, among others.
The Amarok is the only ute for sale on the Australian market at the moment, besides the Ranger, with the option of a V6 diesel engine.
A new-generation Volkswagen Amarok was recently revealed and is based on the Ford Ranger and shares its engines.
