Raptor Powerplant For Next-gen Ranger
FORD has plenty of confidence in the upcoming Ranger Raptor’s 2.0-litre bi-turbo diesel engine (2.0BT), with this powerplant and its accompanying 10-speed auto gearbox to be offered as an option in the 2019 Ranger WildTrak, Ranger XLT, and as standard in the Everest Titanium.
The bi-turbo equipped Ranger XLT will start at $57,390, with the Wildtrak 2.0BT topping out at $63,990. The current 3.2-litre turbo-diesel five-cylinder diesel engine (with six-speed auto), along with the existing 2.2TD, carry over as engine options for the rest of the Ranger line-up. Impressively, 2019 Ranger models will include a five-year, unlimited kilometre warranty, on top of increased equipment levels. The 2.0-litre four-cylinder bi-turbo diesel produces 157kW at 3750rpm and 500Nm at 1750rpm.
For Everest, buyers keen on this mill will have to stump up for the Titanium model, but can expect their investment to be money well spent in terms of performance and fuel economy. The 2.0-litre bi-turbo, as fitted to the Ranger WildTrak, will boast a claimed 6.7L/100km fuel consumption figure, a big improvement on the current 3.2TD-equipped Ranger’s 8.2L/100km.
