New 2023 Ford Ranger Platinum revealed

Power for the Ranger Platinum comes exclusively from Ford's new 3.0-litre V6 diesel, which makes 237bhp and 600Nm of torque for effortless towing to a maximum capacity of 3.5 tonnes. The motor connected to a 10-speed automatic gearbox and the new Ranger's permanent four-wheel drive system. Ford quotes WLTP-tested fuel economy of up to 28.2mpg for the V6 diesel.

Ford has given it 'silk chrome' trim on the outside, as well as a unique grille design in the same finish, while 20-inch machined alloy wheels with black detailing fitted as standard. Inside, perforated, and quilted leather seats with 10-way adjustment and heating and cooling add a plush feel, while open-grained maple wood trim and LED ambient lighting included, as is an eight-speaker B&O sound system.
