Ford has launched the limited-edition Ranger Stormtrak in South Africa. Take a look at specification and pricing details below!
Yes, there’s another flavour of Ranger coming your way as Ford now welcomes the Ranger Stormtrak to its local double-cab bakkie offering.
Ford is going all out to maximise the current Ranger model as the brand prepares to introduce an all-new Ranger in 2022 which will be built right here in SA at the firm’s Silverton production facility. This is also where Ford is expected to build the next Volkswagen Amarok, or AmaRanger…
Much like the Ranger Thunder which came to market last year, the Ranger Stormtrak builds on the Ranger Wildtrak and gains its own set of eye-catching styling features.
The Ranger Stormtrak will be offered with 18-inch gloss black alloy wheels, a black mesh grille with red inserts, black lower bumper section, black 3D Stormtrack decals seen on the bonnet and doors and black roof rails. The limited-edition Ranger Stormtrak also features obligatory ‘Stormtrak’ badges found on the lower door sections and on the tailgate.
A practical addition is the Power Roller Shutter which covers the load bay to protect your cargo as well as a bed divider. A drop-in bed liner and 12V socket is fitted and the tailgate is also lockable via central locking.
The Ranger Stormtrak will be offered in a new Lucid Red exterior paint finish or buyers can opt for Sea Grey, Frozen White or Blue Lightning.
As for the interior, leather seats with contrasting red stitching are standard and they feature Stormtrak logos on the seat backrests to remind you that this is not a Ranger Thunder. Red stitching is further seen on the leather dashboard, transmission gaiter and steering wheel. Ford’s SYNC3 infotainment system is also standard fair with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay functionality and app control functionality via FordPass.
Driving assistance and safety features include Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Forward Collision Alert, Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Lane Keeping Alert and Lane Keeping Aid, Driver Alert System, and Semi-Automatic Parallel Park Assist.
Ford’s familiar 2.0-litre bi-turbocharged diesel engine will be found in the engine bay with outputs of 157 kW and 500 Nm of torque and comes paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
