New 2021 Ford Ranger Ranger XLS, XLT, FX4 ,Raptor & Wildtrak variants Launch Philippines
7Ford Philippines has officially completed its first launch of the year: the refreshed Ranger. This is the same truck that was revealed in Thailand back in November 2020 alongside the new-look Everest.
To be more specific, it’s the Ranger XLS, XLT, and Wildtrak variants that get the subtle design tweaks. The new trapezoidal grille—similar to the one fitted in the Ranger FX4—is now available in these variants.
There are a few other changes, too. XLT variants get chrome accents on the grille along with some gloss black highlights on the mirrors, door handles, and fog lamp bezels. Wildtrak variants get ‘Saber’ accents on the grille and exterior gloss black touches all around. There are also new Wildtrak side decals and a 3D Wildtrak decal on the tailgate. The 4x4 Wildtrak variants, meanwhile, can be had with an OEM power roller shutter for the bed.
“Our new Ford Ranger lineup will allow us to continue building on our leadership in the pickup segment in the country,” says Ford Philippines president and managing director PK Umashankar. “The new Ranger is set to deliver on its promise of functionality and capability while enabling the diverse needs and lifestyles of our customers.”
The price tags remain the same for the most part. However, the BiTurbo Wildrak and XLS 4x2 MT variants do get P33,000 and P30,000 price bumps, respectively. You can check out the full price list below:
