CarExpert's Take
Max Davies
Marketplace Journalist
Max Davies drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Buttery V6 diesel
- Robust tech inside and out
- Still indisputably the non-PHEV ute benchmark
Misses
- There are more logical Rangers at better prices
- Generally expensive compared to rivals
- No tonneau cover as standard

Max Davies drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Clean, comfortable interior
- Efficient engine, pointy steering
- A logical mid-range dual-cab 4x4 variant
Misses
- Overzealous driver attention monitor
- Only halogen headlights
- Standard tyres aren't up to scratch
Colours Available
Ford is giving its gen-two Ranger and Ranger Raptor a handful of colours including some brilliant bright colours for the alter, including one exclusive to the flagship ute.
However, if you like 50 shades of grey – or, in this case, three – you’ll still have some options that’ll suit.
The colour palette comprises the following:
- Absolute Black
- Aluminium
- Arctic White
- Blue Lightning
- Meteor Grey
- Sedona Orange
- Luxe Yellow (Wildtrak only)
- Code Orange (Raptor only)
- Conquer Grey (Raptor only)
The 2024 Mitsubishi Triton is available in the following colours:
- White solid (GLX, GLX+, GLS)
- White Diamond prestige (GLS, GSR)
- Black Mica prestige (GLX+, GLS, GSR)
- Red solid (GLX+, GLS)
- Blade Silver metallic (GLX, GLX+, GLS)
- Graphite Grey metallic (all models)
- Impulse Blue metallic (GLX+, GLS)
- Yamabuki Orange prestige (GSR)
All models feature a black interior, though the GLX+ and GLS feature silver stitching and the GSR orange stitching.

2025 Ford Ranger Sport V6 review
Ford's best-seller still justifies its position as an Aussie favourite, especially in Sport V6 form, but more rivals are signing up every day.

2025 Mitsubishi Triton review
The latest addition to the Triton dual-cab ute range is a compelling unit, but it's a strong package held back by a few small quirks.
