What's the story

US automaker Ford has revealed a limited-run variant of its Ranger Raptor pick-up truck, called the Ranger Raptor Special Edition. The vehicle gets cosmetic updates both inside and out as well as better off-roading capability. It draws power from a 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder, twin-turbocharged Ecoblue diesel engine linked to a 10-speed AMT gearbox. Here are more details.

Exteriors

Racing stripes, matte black finish are visible on the body

The Ford Ranger Raptor Special Edition has racing stripes that extend from the bonnet to the roof, across the tailgate and rear wings, and along the sides. The tow hooks on the front have also been painted red. A matte black finish is visible on the front grille, door handles, wheel arches, and rear bumper. The vehicle sports sleek headlights and vertically-positioned taillamps.

Information

It runs on a 213hp, 2.0-liter engine

Ford Ranger Raptor Special Edition is powered by a 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder, twin-turbocharged Ecoblue diesel engine linked to a 10-speed AMT gearbox. The mill generates 213hp/500Nm. It also has a 51mm taller ride height and 150mm wider track than the Ranger XLT for better off-road capability.
