    CarExpert's Take

    NA
    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

    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)
