Ford Ranger WildTrak 3.0L V6 turbo diesel launched in Malaysia – 250PS, 600Nm,RM192k

KUALA LUMPUR: The Ford Ranger family in Malaysia just got a major power upgrade. Sime Darby Auto ConneXion (SDAC), the sole distributor of Ford vehicles locally, has officially launched the new Ford Ranger WildTrak 3.0L V6 Turbo Diesel, priced from RM192,888 in Peninsular Malaysia and RM198,688 in Sabah and Sarawak.

This latest addition to the Ranger line-up promises more muscle and refinement than before, thanks to its 3.0-litre V6 turbo diesel engine that delivers 250PS at 3,250 rpm and a hefty 600Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm. That makes it the most powerful WildTrak variant offered here to date.

Powertrain and drive modes

Under the hood, the V6 is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and a full-time four-wheel drive system, offering strong pulling power and smoother acceleration across different terrains.

Drivers also get access to six drive modes – Normal, Eco, Tow/Haul, Slippery, Mud/Ruts, and Sand – along with four drivetrain settings, making the WildTrak equally at home in city traffic or off the beaten track.

Design and features

On the outside, the WildTrak V6 stands out with Matrix LED headlamps, Ford’s signature C-clamp daytime running lights, 20-inch alloy wheels with 255/55 R20 tyres, and a distinctive V6 badge on the fender. The package also includes a full-size spare wheel, powered side mirrors with puddle lamps, and an overall bolder stance.

Inside, Ford has updated the cabin with a 12-inch SYNC 4A infotainment screen, supporting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and paired with an 8-inch multi-information display for key driving data. Other touches include a wireless charging pad, USB port for dashcams, and a more premium-feeling layout.

Safety 

Ford has packed the WildTrak V6 with a comprehensive ADAS suite. Standard equipment includes:

• Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)

• Lane Departure Warning with Lane Keeping Assist

• Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go and Lane Centering

• Rear Cross-Traffic Alert

• Post-Collision Braking

These features put the Ranger WildTrak among the safer pickups currently on sale in Malaysia.

Speaking at the launch, Sami Malkawi, Executive Director of Ford Asia Pacific Distributor Markets (APDM), Korea & Global Direct Fleet, said:

“More powerful than its 2.0-litre counterpart, the all-new Ford Ranger WildTrak 3.0L V6 Turbo Diesel is all about a smoother, quieter driving experience complemented by the wide-encompassing features one expects from the Ranger WildTrak.”

He added that the new model was built to serve a variety of roles, from daily family duties to long-distance recreational travel.

Turse Zuhair, Managing Director of SDAC-Ford, also noted:

“Whether navigating urban streets or venturing off-road, the latest model is designed to actively safeguard everyone on board while keeping the spirit of adventure alive. The Ranger WildTrak V6 is more than just a pickup – it’s a lifestyle enabler.”

Colours and launch offers

The Ranger WildTrak 3.0L V6 Turbo Diesel is offered in four colours – Arctic White, Absolute Black, Luxe Yellow, and Meteor Grey.

Early buyers get additional perks, including a complimentary 2-Year Extended Service Package, a limited-edition cooler bag, and an exclusive Ford camping chair for those who make bookings online.

After-Sales and ownership experience

SDAC-Ford is also expanding after-sales support. Its Ford Mobile Service (FMS) is now available in Ara Damansara and Petaling Jaya, offering doorstep servicing. Vehicle pick-up and delivery are also being rolled out, while the Express Service network has grown to 15 dealers nationwide for quicker maintenance.

With 250PS, 600Nm, full-time 4WD, advanced ADAS, and premium tech, the new Ford Ranger WildTrak 3.0L V6 Turbo Diesel is the most capable Ranger WildTrak to date.

Positioned above the 2.0-litre version, it now sits as Ford’s flagship pickup in Malaysia, blending performance, comfort, and safety for drivers who want more than just a workhorse.

The direction Ford is taking suggests a stronger push into the premium truck market, moving beyond the standard pickup segment.
