The 2020 Ford Ranger is a practical midsize pickup that you’ll find more practical than the full-size Ford F-150. You’ll find this size SUV much easier to park than other versions. Read more about the ranger’s secs, price, features and more with our Ford Ranger 2020 buyer’s guide.
Great Performance
The 2020 ranger comes equipped with one of the most durable powertrains in the class. Nearly all of the 2020 Ford Ranger’s key competitors come with a much weaker engine. The four-cylinder engine also comes turbocharged which is just as powerful as a V6 engine.
Ford’s standard for the 2020 ranger includes 270 horsepower which is sure to boost anyone’s confidence. The 310 pound-feet of torque will help get you from 0-60 mph within 6.5 seconds. Not to mention, the fuel economy hits an impressive 26 MPG.
Perfect For Towing And Hauling
Despite the Ford Ranger 2020 lacking muscle for the average full-size truck, it can undoubtedly handle a good workload. Its maximum towing capacity of 7,500 lbs which adds to the ranger’s versatility. You can expect it to get the job done without compromising your new vehicle.
Other bits of versatility include recreational campers for watercraft and helping you transport plenty of things. If you’re pulling a load, the 2020 ranger has sway control to ensure optimum stability. There’s also a payload capacity of an impressive 1,860 lbs that’ll allow you to haul incredible weight.
Brand New FX2 Off-Road Package
The new 2020 Ford Ranger is built to travel off the beaten path with ease. It features Terrain Management as well as underbody skid plates when you purchase the optional FX4 package. If you aren’t looking for a four-wheel drive, the 2020 ranger has a new FX4 package.
There’s an electronic locking rear differential that’ll help with traction on slippery grounds. The trail-tuned suspension dampers also help the truck handle rough impacts. You’ll also be happy to see the off-road tires, off-road instrument clusters and a rugged front bumper to match.
It’s A Comfortable Truck
It isn’t unusual to see trucks trade comfort for style. Luckily, the Ford ranger price properly reflects the smooth operation as well as a decent style. The truck’s quality is good on virtually any paved road surface.
There’s a sturdy cabin to help minimize outside noise and we’re sure that you’ll appreciate the SUV’s well-padded seats. Those will give you both the support and comfort for long trips. We recommend the SuperCrew body style if you have family or large groups of friends who’ll be thankful for the extra legroom.
The 2020 Ranger Looks Good
Many people describe the Ford Ranger 2020 SUV as one of the best looking trucks around. The base XL trim has more of a plain look but Ford also has an optional STX appearance package to change that. It comes with Carbon Black bumpers and 17-inch alloy wheels to match.
The upper trims have a Black Appearance Package as well. This will black out the exterior accents and coordinate with the 18-inch alloy wheels. There’s a total of eight paint colors to choose from like Hot Pepper Red and Lightning Blue.
Most Trims Have Ford’s Co-Pilot360 Operating System
The Ford Ranger specifications include automatic emergency braking. Besides the standard model, every other trim has Ford’s Co-Pilot 360 operating system. It adds amazing safety innovations to the truck such as lane-keep assistance to nudge you back in place and automatic high-beam controls to adjust lighting among traffic.
There’s also blind-spot monitors which are arguably one of the best perks. There are rear cross-traffic alerts Having this operating system makes driving your new SUV so much safer. The rear cross-traffic alerts also give you more assurance while parking.
Premium Sound System
You can expect a four-speaker audio speaker in any SUV but the 2020 Ford Ranger tops that. You can upgrade to the new B&O premium sound system instead. It assures that your music will come with an exciting punch.
It has a 675-watt amplifier that powers up to 10 speakers. There’s a special feature to eliminate background noise for the best audio quality. So when you’re cruising along the highway, you’ll definitely appreciate these features.
FordPass Connect
Once you get past the base 2020 ranger, you’ll love the FordPass Connect. The AT&T WiFi hotspot can support up to 10 devices. That way, everyone in your truck will have access to high-speed internet.
You can also download a smartphone app to remotely start your SUV and lock the doors. This is a great feature but there’s more! If you ever forget where you parked, FordPass will locate your vehicle in a jiffy.
The SYNC 3 Infotainment System Is Great
You won’t find the SYNC Infotainment System in the standard models, but it’s worth the investment if you’re a technology lover. You’ll love the high-resolution touchscreen. And if you want to access your smartphone apps, you can do so using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Not to mention, the interface is very easy to use. Automotive journalists are loving the SYNC 3 due to its simple operation. You’ll love it for the reliable voice controls too!
MyKey Helps Parents Monitor Teens
If you have a teen driver in your family, you’ll want the MyKey system in your Ford Ranger 2020. It isn’t as advanced as the Teen Driver system you’ll find with Chevrolet. But you can use MyKey to set speed limits and modify the system’s peak volume levels.
