Ford Motor Company has been broadening its Ranger pickup range in multiple markets. In late July 2026, the firm introduced three new Ranger variants – Platinum, Sport and XL – to the Malaysian market, highlighting a high‑output V6 diesel for the flagship, sport‑oriented styling for the mid‑range, and a utilitarian XL model aimed at commercial users. The launch was accompanied by the establishment of an East Malaysia parts hub in Kota Kinabalu to improve after‑sales service in Sabah and Sarawak. The following day, Ford Pro rolled out an expanded lineup in Greece, adding a conventional 3.0 L V6 EcoBlue diesel and a new plug‑in hybrid powertrain that pairs a 2.3 L EcoBoost gasoline engine with an electric motor. Both models retain a 10‑speed automatic transmission and robust four‑wheel‑drive capabilities, while the hybrid offers a 50 km electric‑only range and onboard power for tools. In August 2026, Ford expanded its European offerings with the Ranger XLT diesel. This trim features the 3.0L V6 EcoBlue engine, producing 240 hp and 600 Nm of torque, an electronic e-4WD system, and a Terrain Management System. The XLT includes a 12-inch central touchscreen, Ford SYNC 4, and a 5-star EuroNCAP rating. Furthering its hybrid strategy, Ford introduced the Ranger WildTrak PHEV for European and global markets. Manufactured at the Silverton plant in South Africa, this model differs from the American gasoline version by offering a more powerful 6.9 kW optional system for powering equipment. The European PHEV also features a 3,500 kg towing capacity and a rear differential lock. On August 24, 2026, Ford expanded its commercial presence in Brazil with the launch of the Ranger XL single cab. Designed for agribusiness and construction, the model is available in cab and chassis-cab configurations with manual or six-speed automatic transmissions.
