If the Ranger does not look mean enough for you, then this news could pump you up. Ford will be launching the Ranger Raptor in the Asia Pacific region next year. However, the question here is that will it arrive in the Philippines?

As of this writing, there are no details yet in regards of the Ranger Raptor’s Philippine debut. Moreover, Ford remains secretive as to which specific countries will it be made available. The only thing that we can confirm is that the Ranger Raptor will be launched in Asia Pacific region in 2018. The Ranger Raptor is an off-road performance variant of Ford's pickup truck.

In case you didn’t know the ‘Raptor’ model name is taken from the Ford F-150 Raptor (photo shown above), which is powered by a 3.5L EcoBoost engine that delivers 450 hp and 691 Nm of torque. It comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission.

“We are very excited to bring Asia Pacific’s toughest and smartest pickup truck to a whole new level. Ford Ranger Raptor will offer Ranger fans a fantastic opportunity to own an authentic off-road performance version of their favorite truck for the first time.”
