The US Spec for this Ranger Raptor is supposedly going to be rated at 392 hp & 430 lb-ft torque (583 Nm). That is a huge jump compared to the pretty wheezy diesel that was in there before. Finally a powertrain to match the suspension of this truck.
@@jldp24 I respectfully disagree. This engine and excellent suspension will make the Ranger Raptor the cream of the crop by a long shot. Furthermore you can lift it and put 35s on. The Ranger Raptor has really set the bar for utes, obviously with the caveat that you don’t need a big payload.
Really was considering a new Bronco when the hype cooled down and issuers started getting fixed but this ranger raptor looks fantastic and the performance it has is incredible , This is the ticket , could be another long delayed reservation process
great info video Paul. the new Fiesta and Focus ST face-lifts just released in EU/UK, have moved to in-house Ford Performance seats, no more Recarro, could be similar for the Raptor.
Paul. Excellent presentation as usual I just love PETROL. YES YES YES! Thank you Ford for listening. Will buy. Coyote SC would be even better but I’ll wait for that when I trade my V6TT in two years. FORD V8 PLEASE
I cannot really see the justification of such a vehicle when most of them won't be driven as intended. I personally would be happier with a lesser variant and tuned V6 turbo diesel that can actually tow something,
I know the only thing we not gonna like about the raptor is it's price tag but seeing everything it comes equipped with like the active suspension and exhaust and that V6 turbo engine it will definitely be worth the money but dealership gonna try to push it with the raptor
Im very much concerned about the fuel consumption.. which is why i was really hoping for a diesel V6. 500km full tank highway driving would be a huge turn off.
i love this looks awesome and sound of a v6 petrol is lit shush i mean that 3 litre v6 sound is in my headphones with the full volume of it after this one next is everest launch on 1st of march
Thanks Paul.............not quite everything though. Still hope it has a better towing capacity than the outgoing one at 2500kg. Needs minimum 3000kg, preferably 3500kg.
Unfortunately not. But take this with a grain of salt. Was at ford today booking in for a service, was talking about the new raptor. Said i really wanted a diesel and im concerned about the fuel consumption, he said to wait and see what happens. Guessing the guy knows sh*tall but who knows.
Ford didn’t sell the outgoing Ranger Raptor in the US+A, but apparently the new generation will come. It’ll also come to Europe, but it’ll be a detuned version.
As someone with a Toyota HiLux SR5 I’ll be swapping it out for an Everest when it comes out, here’s to hoping it gets a raptor adaptation. The other competitors really need to up there game they’re falling off hard.
I would still option diesel, purely for range and economy for long distance touring of our desert country outback. I get the need for the petrol go-fast engine for "play time", but for me it has to be diesel for off-road range. Will diesel still be an option?
Massive upgrade over the outgoing one. Anti lag systems normally pump fuel into the hot pipe before the turbo where it ignites and creates that pressure needed to keep the turbo spooled up but no way such a system would meet even Australia's lower emission standards plus the noise such a system makes. So how are they doing it on this?
Anti lag has come a long since those days. The newer systems use air that is stored a few seconds ago to keep the turbo spinning. Clever stuff, and interesting if you want to do some research.
The "official" information on the Ford website says some of the stuff that works in Baja mode is specifically for "off road use only"... I guess that'd be how they get away with it. Have all these warnings and notes in manuals and documentation that say you can't do something on the street (no saying you won't though) ;)
Ford got confused. I don't know what made them think that anything other than milk and perhaps a bottle of coke could come in 2L's? Madness. I had the 3.2L Wildtrack. I really couldn't understand that silly logic. We're in business again. On the waiting list already. I'm not too worried about pricing, because there's are just capable cars. Comfortable, hardworking and just oh so hot.
Great video Paul, love it. Surely gonna be getting the Ford too...Living a life of luxury is like a dream for some people and for others it's constant reality, the key is having financial stability...I don't know who needs to hear this but stop saving all your money in the bank. Learn some new skills and lnvest your money if you want financial freedom...
That's correct.. I believe that the secret to financial stability is having multiple streams of lncome that earns you more money aside your j0b.Regardless you're invested in crypt0, NFTs, DAO project, Stocks, Real estate and on,...you just need a productive source(s) with the right lnvestment ldeas
Wait a minute.... y'all working with Mister Carl Davis😱. im also a living attestation of hls servlces. He's obviously the best and has really made a good name for himself. I lnvested 4000$ with him and made a proflt of 16,107$ in 9days.
My Goodness....I had a bad experience lnvesting on my own until I met Mr. Carl Davis I have made over £45O0O tradlng crypt0currencies, I even made a whooping £12,35O on my last deal with a capital of $410O . Retiring next year with no fears!!
Been reading through the comments and when he said Carl Davis I knew he was right! I have the best lnvesting help from Mr Carl. He's friendly and easy to get along with in terms of lnvesting tips. It was a life changing lnvestment I was able to pay off my mortgage 😭😭
I think I would have been happier with the added torque of an uprated V6 diesel. Of note, the standard Sync 4 infotainment Screen as available on the XL-XLT, measures 10" diagonally, Wildtrak gets the 12" and the Raptor has the 12.4" screen. Driving this Raptor, does it have the Adaptive Cruise control? How about trying out the Parking assist in a city environment? personally, I'd like to see more F150 features make it to the Ranger, like the power rear gate and cooler in the center console, Heated and cooled seats front & rear.. All in all, a good video. keep it up!
Hi Paul, too bad there all Unicorns and dodo,s at this stage. So when is the date of release, the exact date no dart boards? Still no data on any capacities or specs on the normal Ranger? No pricing, at this stage it’s still a prototype and specs if ever released can change.
Please let me know if this 2023 Ranger Raptor comes prepared to use the 37-inch tires like 2022 Jeep Ford Bronco Raptor uses? Thank you. Dr. Luis Amador?
Thanks Paul for the info, the mrs has had the 2l raptor for the last 3 years , great ute even with the little engine . First job today was to order my raptor, can’t wait to drive it 👌great job ford!!!
Looks great, hopefully they don’t Jack the price up too high for it, was already fairly up there, any go on pricing for the new range? I think ford has take a big leap forward, time for the others to catch up I reckon
Agreed. Don't forget the raptor is going from a more expensive diesel to petrol engine. Diesel vehicles have historically been more expensive than petrol. History would predict that the price would go down considering the engine and then up a little for the new tech.
Awesome. Now I wish BMW hands the B56 Straight six petrol over to Toyota to build a rival 300KW HILUX with proper GRUNT! (Same engine as the one in the Supra, yes it downturned to 250kw - it is more than capable!)
Raptor simply won't be sold in Thailand because of that engine. Ford would need to make a leaf spring Raptor and have dealers install the proper suspension in order to bring the price down. (rear leaf springs are taxed lower)
We're getting it in Canada! Reeeeaally looking forward to it. It does have proper competition here though with the Jeep Gladiator and Chevy Colorado ZR2
Love it. 100k is a big psychological price point. If they can keep to 95k it will sell very well. Also hopefully payload/towing improved to enable tax advantages for business owners.
Sorry mate, if it's 95k is a stretch if they want to own the market. 80 to 85k would be the number if Ford wanted to own the market. Also towing and payload will not improve while the rear end in sprung and not leaf.
Between this Carnival Platinum and Next Gen Ford Raptor, which one do you recon would suit a 40+ professional with 3 kids. My mind tells me Carnival is more useful daily, but mid life itch tells me to get a Raptor and go off road with my mate who is a Pro 4WD driver, hunter, downhill riding & fishermen. Which should I get??
Happy that Ford Australia have finally got this vehicle right, and I'll definitely be looking at a new ranger, BUT I do have the need for heavy towing, and we STILL IN THIS COUNTRY have to look at the RAM or CHEV full size pickups for that, if Ford here are serious, bring in the F150 and the F250 6.7lt V8 Diesel, it is warranted because of the GVM laws, and more importantly the safety aspects too. My towing duties are done with a RAM 2500, come on Ford, go further like your advisement says !!!
Yes, it is far superior from a powertrain and looks department then its competition...BUT BUT BUT BUT, it's probably going to be about $35K more than its competitors.....so it's not a straight comparison
@@hotrod7603 I'm not buying either, I think I'll get an Ineos Grenadier or anything else that doesn't have to play pretend. The V6 sounds nice but to have a video banging on about how tough it is when it has ifs front still. Yeah not interested.
You know all hardcore racers in Finke run IFS, right? Solid fronts are dinosaur garbage for jokers who still love carbs. Current gen raptor easily runs the Finke line, albeit much slower than a racer. This will do it just as easily.
@@nickdudem you mean ifs with like 20 inch travel? I have seen plenty of Finke capable vehicles. None of them look as flimsy or weak as the raptor. Solid axles definitely are not the fastest set up but I don't see them breaking for going off road. Carbs are shit btw, no idea how solid axle and carbs relate really. I see plenty of trucks still running solid axles lol...
I firsthand know the Raptor can do it easily, relatively quickly, with no failures. I don't know what weakness you're talking about, besides the plastic bumpers, but if you're heading out, you're canning them anyway
If you can afford the 100k to buy this, surely you can afford the few hundred dollars extra per year for fuel? And if you can't appreciate the extra driving enjoyment the petrol engine will give you over a diesel, then this is not the car/truck for you!
@@robp9555 we're used to having deisel utes in Australasia. Enjoyment vs ridiculous fuel economy will definitely have some sitting on the fence IMO. Let's wait and see
'Playing' the noise of the engine through the speakers? WTF is going on with 4WDs these days? You only have to look at the price of the V8 cruiser Utes to see people are for the first time in automotive history paying MORE money to get LESS crap put on their Utes. Oh...and no diesel........Fair dinkum Ford get a clue.
The Raptor owners out there have, for the most part, been screaming for a more worthy engine... I myself emailed Ford Australia in 2019 after having mine for only a short while saying that they'd built a phenomenal ute that just needed a more worthy engine... I know I wasn't the only one to make this point!!! Look at petrol V8 GMC, Ford and RAM sales in Australia to see most people with 100k to spend on a ute aren't stressed about fuel consumption much
2500kg... it isn't a tow mule to haul a 23' Bar Crusher... it'll get a couple of side by sides or motorbikes out to the trails fine but this thing is a toy, not a tool
300kw this is what we have all been waiting for! Great video Paul. Looking forward to more content from you.

This is going to dominate the ute market if the price is right.
It wont dominate the mkt..its going to price atleast 20% higher than the Amarok Extreme..and its petrol so running costs will be astronomical.
You're right... they sold heaps of the first generation ones DESPITE the engine... they'll sell more of these BECAUSE of the engine

The Ford Ranger Raptor Is Very Surprisingly The Luxurious Near Ford F150 Base Model
it's like a father son of f150
Thanks Paul.............not quite everything though. Still hope it has a better towing capacity than the outgoing one at 2500kg. Needs minimum 3000kg, preferably 3500kg.
it's not made to be a tow vehicle, that's what leaf springs are for.
No change. And stop asking for it, you can't have a vehicle that can jump and a vehicle that can carry heaps at the same time.
Need a tow vehicle? Buy a granny box hauler.
Even then, my MY18 Raptor towed a 2.8t race trailer no probs, just don't advertise it to the popo

Wow! That is a big jump up in the engine, very nice 👍😎
Is it going to be available Europe with same engine?
Best coverage I’ve seen.
Great information as always. Any predication when we could expect to know Ranger prices?
I never understood why the current ranger didn't offer smart keyless entry for the tail gate. Hopefully this is a feature on the new one.
There we go, a proper post. Frustrating it didn't have it, and the thing locked itself after a minute if you only use the tailgate, pain in the ass
