Here's Why You SHOULD NOT Buy The New 2023 Ford Ranger..

Welcome back to Car Central, today on the channel we are going to check out Why you SHOULD NOT buy the new 2023 Ford Ranger. It’s difficult to overstate the importance of the 2023 Ford Ranger in Australia. In one of Australia’s most popular – and hotly contested – markets, the Ranger has been taking on an incumbent favourite head-on. And when you look at four-wheel-drive sales (discounting the two-wheel-drive variants), it often comes out on top. It occupies a staggering slice of Ford’s overall pie in Australia, and lays the foundation for successful spin-offs like the Everest and Ranger Raptor. It’s a job that only gets harder, when you consider how successful and impressive Ford’s outgoing Ranger has remained during its 11-year tenure. It was good enough to take on the Toyota HiLux for sales dominance, and often won the race for 4x4 models.

Those are some big boots to fill, and a whole lot of weight on the shoulders. Goes to reason, then, that Ford engineers have left nothing on the table with a new model. There might have been a temptation to re-skin the current platform, re-jig a few things and sprinkle in some extra tech. However, they didn't do that. Like the T6 Ranger, this next-generation model has been designed, engineered and tested in Australia. It’s not a completely clean-sheet design. Instead, they have taken the successful T6 platform and moved it into a new-generation model. The wheel track has been bumped outwards by 50mm. Not by wheel offset, but by reworked suspension. It’s still leaf-sprung at the back with independent struts up front, but the rear shock absorbers have been mounted outboard of the chassis rails. Oh, and most models – those with an electric park brake – now have rear disc brakes. More about the new 2023 Ford Ranger in this video.
