The 2011 Ford Ranger is part of the model's third and final generation in North America, featuring a compact frame that stands out in a market dominated by larger pickups. Its two available engines include a 2.3-liter four-cylinder with 143 horsepower and a 4.0-liter V6 with 207 horsepower, both paired with a five-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is standard, with four-wheel drive available. This model came in XL, XLT, and Sport trims, all offering differing levels of comfort and convenience. Notable features include optional stability control on all models and payload packages for increased towing capacity. Infotainment tech is limited, reflecting its age. Since 2011, Ford suspended and then revived the Ranger in the US, with a completely new design.
