Is the new Ford Ranger quicker than the outgoing V6 Volkswagen Amarok? We lined them up, side-by-side, to find out.
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:
While options and pricing haven’t been confirmed yet, we know the Amarok will be available in eight exterior colours including one colour unique to VW.
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.

With its unique turbo petrol engine in a market that's more open to diesels than ever, the Amarok Aventura sits nicely in its own zone.
