This extraordinary vehicle carries the legacy of exceptional performance, boasting an unbeatable suspension design, purposeful technology, and rugged styling. Designed to conquer the most challenging terrains, the Ranger Raptor is a thrilling choice for adventure enthusiasts seeking the ultimate off-road experience.

Confident Suspension and Purposeful Tech

Purpose-built suspension: The heart of every Raptor lies in its suspension system. The Ranger Raptor features a meticulously engineered suspension that includes lightweight aluminum upper and lower control arms. Additionally, its long-travel rear suspension boasts a Watts linkage and trailing arms, providing unrivaled control and confidence in off-road conditions.

Advanced FOX™ 2.5-inch Live Valve Internal Bypass shocks: Equipped with next-generation FOX™ shocks, the Ranger Raptor ensures uninterrupted performance throughout the day. These shocks are coil-overs at the front and come with piggyback reservoirs at the rear, effectively reducing heat build-up. The result is exceptional performance even in the most demanding situations.

Robust construction: The Ranger Raptor is built on a reinforced foundation, taking Ranger’s fully boxed frame to new heights. Reinforcements in crucial areas, such as the front frame rails, front shock towers, rear shock brackets, and suspension mounting points, enable the Ranger Raptor to conquer punishing off-road conditions with ease.

Customizable drive modes: The innovative FOX™ Live Valve Internal Bypass system adjusts damping performance based on the selected drive mode. With options like Normal, Tow/Haul, Sport, Slippery, Off-Road, Rock Crawl, and Baja, the Ranger Raptor delivers superior comfort, control, capability, and ride quality, whether you’re cruising on highways or conquering rough terrain. The selectable drive modes fine-tune various aspects of the vehicle, including engine, transmission, ABS calibration, traction control, steering, and throttle response, providing a tailored experience for every adventure. Furthermore, the active valve exhaust system offers multiple tuning modes, including Quiet, Normal, Sport, and Baja, enhancing the overall driving experience. Additionally, the Ranger Raptor comes equipped with Trail Control™, a feature that assists drivers in navigating challenging spots while managing throttle and brakes.

Powertrain Fit for Extraordinary Performance

Unmatched power: To match its exceptional suspension, the Ranger Raptor is equipped with a Ford Performance tuned twin-turbo 3.0-liter EcoBoost® V6 engine. Delivering a maximum available 405 horsepower and an impressive 430 lb.-ft. of torque, this powertrain ensures outstanding performance on various terrains, including gravel, dirt, mud, and sand.

Cutting-edge technology: The Ranger Raptor’s engine features a compacted graphite-iron cylinder block and a race-bred anti turbo-lag system. This innovative system allows boost on demand, even in Baja mode, keeping the turbochargers spinning for up to three seconds after the driver backs off the throttle. As a result, acceleration is readily available when exiting corners. Paired with the EcoBoost engine is a class-exclusive 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission, working harmoniously with an advanced four-wheel-drive system and an electronically controlled on-demand two-speed transfer case. The front and rear locking differentials further enhance the Ranger Raptor’s off-road capabilities.

Designed with Purpose and Distinct Style

Performance-focused cabin: Inside the Raptor’s cabin, performance takes center stage. The sport steering wheel features cast magnesium alloy paddle shifters for quick transmission control, while a signature Raptor centering mark in a Code Orange color adds a touch of distinction. For added convenience, six overhead upfitter switches are mounted in the overhead console, making it easier to power off-road accessories. The unique Ford Performance front seats provide exceptional support with bolstering to keep drivers firmly in place during high-speed cornering. Premium materials trimmed in Code Orange elevate the overall interior ambiance.

A Legacy of Passionate Performance

The Ford Raptor family extends its exceptional performance across the truck and SUV portfolio. The F-150 Raptor, F-150 Raptor R, Bronco Raptor, and now the Ranger Raptor cater to passionate enthusiasts who seek thrilling adventures. The pre-production 2023 Ranger Raptor has already demonstrated its mettle by winning the stock midclass category of the grueling Baja 1000 race, completing the course in an impressive 26 hours and 21 minutes. And to top it off, it then made the journey back home, covering almost 200 miles from the finish line to California.

Orders for this exceptional vehicle will begin later this month, with availability slated for late this summer.
