Ford, being one of the pioneers in making lifestyle premium pickup trucks, definitely knows a thing or two in making good looking pickup trucks. The Ranger, with its all American brute looks, indeed looks macho and muscular, especially at the front. The frontal looks shared with the Ford Everest SUV looks intimidating.
In addition to the exterior design, even the interior cabin of the Ford Ranger feels plush and solidly built. While the instrument console in the Ford Ranger feels quite comprehensive and futuristic, the presence of some of the premium features shared with the Ford Everest indeed makes the Ford Ranger a happy place to be in.
A pickup truck deserves a powerful heart to give it a go anywhere ability, and the Ford Ranger is blessed with one. Powered by a 2.2-litre diesel engine shared with the Everest, the Ranger feels mighty on road with an adequate punch to go on and off the road with equal prowess – something which is assisted by the fantastic four wheel drive as well.
While the engine surprises you with the amount of power it packs in, the levels of refinement, especially in the higher rpms. The engine sounds noisy and gruffy, which despite having a good sound insulation system, makes its presence felt inside the cabin with its loudness.
Being a pickup truck with quite a high ground clearance, the Ford Ranger has not that great and plush ride quality. The suspension is good enough to eat up all the undulations on the tarmac with ease, however, it is not plush to keep the inner occupants comfortable.

The Ford Ranger has been serving the Malaysian market for quite some time now. And from what we know along with the sales data support, the Ranger has done a pretty good job. However, the last-gen Ranger seemed to lose its market grip to the dated design and not-so-modern feature list. It is to be noted that in 2015 the Ranger received an update, with revisions only limited to under the hood configuration. The all-new 2019 Ranger reveal didn’t came-in as a surprise. The updated pickup was already on a launching spree. Also, with the neighboring countries receiving their share, there was no chance of Malaysia skipping the routine.
Moving on, the Malaysian-spec Ranger 2019 is launched in five trims in total, out of which the Raptor is yet to go on sale. The remaining four are categorised as High Rider units, included in the list are - XL, XLT, XLT+, and Wildtrack. The new Ford Ranger is launched with two distinct engine options. The XL and XLT trim runs on a 2.2-litre TDCi VGT Puma mill. The XLT+ and Wildtrack variants, on the other hand, gets a 2.0-litre engine. Ford has introduced many first-time features in the Ranger pickup one of which is the 10-speed automatic transmission unit with SelectShift. As for the comfort, luxury, and safety features, the 2019 Ranger has all of it in abundance.
The updated Ranger price starts from RM 90,888 and goes all the way to RM 144,888. The Ranger is available in many color options with each variant getting a specific set of splashes.
It’s not wrong to say that the cabin of the new Ranger like the exterior has undergone a sea of changes. For someone only seeing the interior with no knowledge of the exterior profile can easily mistake the Ranger for any of Ford’s high-end car. Such is the quality, fit and finish of the vehicle. Though all the variants differ slightly from one another in terms of amenities on offer, however, what remains common is the attention given to space, functionality, and comfort. The controls are easy to reach and are in plain sight. The seats are ultra comforting and positioned in a manner to give extra legroom. Getting in and out is simple, even in the double cab trim that gets massive doors and smartly placed rear pillar. Also, the noise, vibration, and harshness levels have been lowered without compromising on the towing or payload capacity.
For entertainment and connectivity is present an 8-inch touchscreen display. It sits right at the centre of the dashboard and supports Bluetooth, voice recognition, and navigation functionalities. It also comes with swipe and pinch-zoom feature, included in the package are 2 USB and 6 (2 to 4 in lower trims) speakers. The new Ranger comes with the upgraded SYNC3 system that now can understand over 10000 natural voice commands. Passengers can use their favorite app on the go via Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and AppLink.
While the XTL+ variants and above offers Dual-zone automatic climate control, leather seats, keyless entry with push-start button, Ford MyKey, cooled centre console, and dual four-inch instrument panel. The standard offering includes single-fabric manually adjustable seats and an audio unit with USB. The Wildtrack package justifies its higher price tag with add-ons like GPS Navigation, eight-way power adjustable driver’s seat, and 230V AC outlet.
Pardon us, if we forgot to mention that the new Ranger carries the perfect look that is good enough to give any pickup run for its money. Ford designers have done a commendable job, especially with the front part. The enormous black (chrome in XLT and radiator in Wildtrack) grille steals the show. Also, the wide bonnet, extended side profile along with the sort after rear, seals the deal. However, the different trims have something that separates one from another. Like, while the XL variant - both Single Cab Manual and Double Cab Manual/Automatic run on 16-inch alloy wheels the rest get 17-inch units. Also, the halogen reflector headlights with manual leveling in the former are replaced by automatic lamps in remaining trims. The 1180 mm cargo bay gets LED lights as standard they provide extra illumination while loading and unloading.
In terms of dimensions, all Ranger trim measures 5426 mm x 1860 mm x 1,848 mm in length, width, and height respectively. The ground clearance and wheelbase are massive at 237 mm and 3220 mm, respectively.
The new 2019 Ford Ranger uses double wishbone with coil spring and leaf spring suspensions at the front and rear respectively. On the braking front, the Ranger comes fitted with the ventilated disc at the front and drums at the back. Enhancing Ranger’s ride quality and NVH level is an ultra-high-strength steel chassis that perfectly compliments the suspension setup and contributes towards improved handling. With the 4X4 Shift-On-The-Fly setup, one can effortlessly move between 2WD and 4WD high/low mode.
There’s no doubt that the Ranger is a capable pickup, the company claims an 800 mm water wading capacity. Water or dry land, the Ranger rules all. Further, it has an approach angle of 29.4 degrees, rampover of 21.5 degrees, and 22 degrees of departure.
The 2019 Ranger is offered in two engine options in the Malaysian market. The XL and XLT trims are powered by the bigger 2.2-litre inline-four with Variable Geometry Turbo engine. This mill produces 160 PS at 3,200 rpm of power along with a peak torque of 385 Nm at 1,600-2,600 rpm. The XLT+ and Wildtrak 4x2 automatic variants run on a 2.0-litre Si-turbo inline-four diesel engine with VGT. The power and torque figure for this one reads 180 PS at 3,500 rpm and 420 Nm at 1,750 - 2,500 rpm, respectively. And the last and the most potent mill is taken by the Wildtrak 4x4 Automatic. It gets the same 2.0-litre mill but with the added benefit of bi-turbo. It thus churns out 213 PS of maximum power at 3,750 rpm and 500 Nm at 1,750 - 2,000 rpm of peak torque.
Coming to the transmission part, the new Ranger is available in both manual and automatic options (depending upon on the variant). The 6-speed transmission unit does the manual duty. On the automatic front are present 6R80 6-speed (XL Double Cab and XLT Auto) and 10R80 10-speed automatic units (+XLT, 4x2 Wildtrack, and 4X4 Wildtrack).
The 2019 Ford Ranger specs sheet points towards an extended safety list. Ford has given the following features as standard - dual airbag, ABS with EBD, Electronic Brake Assist, Electronic Stability Control, Hill Descent Control, Hill Launch Assist, Rollover Mitigation, Trailer Sway Control, Adaptive Load Control, ISOFIX child seat mounts. Parking the Ranger Wildtrack is a no-brainer since it comes with a reverse camera, rear parking sensors, and Semi-Automatic Parallel Parking.
The all-new Ford Ranger is no regular pickup. The right word for it would be a 'lifestyle pickup' that not only caters day-to-day chores but at the same time fulfills all luxury needs. And we are pretty sure, its competitors like the Toyota Hilux, Isuzu D-Max, Nissan Navara, and Mazda BT-50 needs to catch up soon with the update. Overall, Ford has done a great job with the new Ranger. The pickup looks excellent, it drives like a dream, and the safety specs are unavailable.
When it comes to performance, I don’t think a lot of people go into depth. I know a thing or two about cars and so I could understand after taking a test drive of the Raptor that it is great from all aspects. The one that I own has a 178 PS engine that falls just under the top-end variant.
