Ford Ranger

Ford’s iconic Falcon ute may no longer be with us, but the Blue Oval workhorse finds a surprising successor in the Ford Ranger, which has gone on to become one of Australia’s top-selling vehicles.

Thanks to a combination of on-road refinement, off-road capability, snazzy features, and dependable tow and load capacity, the Ford Ranger has managed to establish itself as a popular choice alongside the Toyota Hilux and Mitsubishi Triton, and it’s even outshone its age-old rival, the Holden Colorado.

The Ford Ranger is available in a wide variety of body types, diesel engines and drivetrain options, with prices starting at $27,990 for the Ford Ranger XL 2.2 4x2 Cab Chassis and right up the scale with the $74,990 Ford Ranger Raptor sitting atop the range.
