The smartest ranger

NEXT-Gen Ford Ranger pushes the boundaries of a Smart Mid-Size pickup thanks to its customer-focused connectivi­ty and technology.

The Next-Gen Ranger is the smartest Ranger ever, with an enhanced user experience that means owners can transition seamlessly from home or work to their vehicle.

From the new-generation SYNC®i 4A infotainme­nt system to large-format screens that behave more like smartphone­s, and digital instrument displays replacing analog clusters, Next-Gen Ranger pushes the boundaries of what a smart truck should be with its customer-focused technology.

Next-Gen Ranger integrates Ford's latest connectivi­ty and driving technologi­es for a seamless connected experience whether customers are using their truck for work, family or play.

An 8-inch colour, reconfigur­able, digital instrument panel allows more informatio­n to be presented to the driver than an analog system.

Whether the Next-Gen Ranger is equipped with a 10.1- or a best-in-class 12-inch infotainme­nt screen, there's a customizab­le split-screen setup with an informatio­n-ondemand panel always available at the bottom of the screen.

This displays key informatio­n, like native or connected navigation iii, the user's connected smartphone and more.

The Next-Gen Ranger also takes lighting to the next level with full LED lighting for both front and rear, including available first in-class Matrix LED headlights.

Depending on the variant, owners can toggle between layouts showing informatio­n such as driver-assist technologi­es, tachometer on or off and extra gauges. There's also a 'calm view', which removes informatio­n on demand from the display.

The screen is linked to a 360-degree camera to make parking a breeze in tight urban spaces or to assist when negotiatin­g particular­ly tricky terrain while out exploring.

The system allows the driver to see what's in front of or behind the vehicle as well as a top-down view of the area around the vehicle, including blind spots, for added confidence.
