The Ford Ranger T6.1 PX4 caused quite the stir when it was released in 2022, with its 3-litre V6 turbo diesel engine and numerous transmission options just two of the reasons why it became one of the world’s bestselling and top-rated pickup trucks.
Its adventure-ready configuration also made the 2022 Ford Ranger a dream vehicle for regular campers and off-roaders as TopSpeed explains:
“Thanks to the 1.97-inch increase in width, Ford is proud to highlight that despite being an incremental increase, this provides a noticeable improvement in cargo volume. Ford, however, did not say how much the bed size has increased over the outgoing model, but they say it’s enough to add another ‘sheet of building plywood or a full-size pallet’. Speaking of the bed, the new Ranger offers a cargo management system that consists of dividers that can hold various items.”
