After months of waiting, Ford Philippines has recently confirmed that the Ranger Raptor will finally arrive on May 18, 2023. The American carmaker has sent out official media invites, signaling the start of the countdown for truck enthusiasts who have been eagerly waiting for the Ranger Raptor's arrival. With only a little over a week left before the launch, the excitement among people is palpable.
Although there are no details on what to expect from the PH-spec truck, we can speculate based on what Thailand offers. According to what we've seen so far, the local units will likely come with the same 2.0-liter bi-turbo diesel engine that is available in select Everest and Ranger variants, which can generate 208 hp and 500 Nm of torque. The engine is also mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission.
Aside from the engine, the Ranger Raptor will come equipped with several standard Raptor features, such as a wider track, bigger wheels with chunky tires, and a more aggressive exterior design. The Ford badge is spelled out on the grille, giving the truck a unique identity. The Ranger Raptor was also previewed at the 2023 Manila International Auto Show, and its design and features suggest that it will be a hit among truck enthusiasts.
The launch of the Ranger Raptor is a significant event for the Philippine market. The truck has been highly anticipated since it was first announced, and car enthusiasts eagerly await it to hit the market.
If you're one of the people eagerly waiting for the Ranger Raptor, keep an eye out for more updates from Ford Philippines and AutoDeal on the day of the launch. Undoubtedly, the Ranger Raptor will generate a lot of buzz, and it's exciting to see how it will fare against its competitors in the market. With its powerful engine and impressive design, the Ranger Raptor is expected to be a game-changer in the Philippine truck market.
