The 2025 Ford Ranger: Rugged Capability for the Modern Driver

Modern drivers looking for a rugged truck can find their daily driver in the 2025 Ford Ranger. This versatile pickup blends power, comfort, and innovative technologies in a mid-size body that’s easy to handle across narrow trails and crowded city streets.

2025 Ford Ranger Engines

When it comes to power, the 2025 Ranger gives you the choice of three powerful engine options, including a 2.3L EcoBoost I-4 offered standard on most trim levels. Paired with standard rear-wheel drive and a 10-speed automatic transmission, this powertrain delivers 270 horsepower and is the best option for the average driver.

If you need more power and off-road prowess, the available 2.7 EcoBoost V6 engine pumps out 315 horsepower and pairs exclusively with a 4×4 drivetrain. The range-topper Raptor takes performance up a notch with a 405-hp 3.0L EcoBoost V6 engine that impresses with 430 lb-ft of torque. This engine also pairs exclusively with standard four-wheel drive, providing you with the power to follow the trail wherever it goes.

Tech-Forward Interior

The 2025 Ranger is one of the most fun-to-drive mid-size trucks, delivering comfortable seating for five and plenty of tech features to keep you and your passengers connected and entertained. A highlight is the SYNC 4A infotainment system offered standard with FordPass Connect so you can easily enable the Wi-Fi hotspot. The hotspot supports up to 10 devices connected at the same time and boasts a range of 50 feet around the truck.

Connected navigation is available on all but the base trim level, while the Applink allows you to synchronize your phone with the infotainment system to use various apps, answer calls, and more. Each model also comes standard with 911 assistance and available upgrades include SiriusXM Satellite Radio and premium B&O sound systems.

Advanced Driver Assistance

As expected from a modern vehicle, the new Ranger comes with a wealth of standard safety features and driver assistance technologies. A highlight is the analog rearview camera, standard on all trim levels, that provides a clear view of the area behind the vehicle for easier backing and parking. Forward collision-avoidance assistance and automatic emergency braking are also standard.

You can upgrade the truck with features like adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alerts. Ford’s AdvanceTrac feature with roll stability control comes in handy when driving on slippery surfaces or off the road, enhancing the vehicle’s balance and handling in difficult conditions.

Versatile, easy to handle, and perfect for the city, the 2025 Ranger is a great daily driver. Visit us at Ewald’s Hartford Ford in Hartford, WI to explore all the model’s features and schedule a test drive.
