2024 Ford Ranger

When you want the capability you can only get from Ford trucks, you don’t have to go for the biggest models in our inventory. The mid-sized 2024 Ford Ranger offers excellent capability for those needing “just enough” truck. Kearny Mesa Ford showcases its best traits and abilities.

Performance

The 2024 Ford Ranger offers three engine choices across its four trims. The base XL trim has a turbocharged, 2.3-liter, four-cylinder engine with 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, while the XLT and Lariat trims have an optional 2.7-liter, turbo V6 with 315 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. When properly equipped, these three trims can tow up to 7,500 lb, carry a 1,805-lb payload, and offer optional four-wheel drive (4WD).

The fourth trim, the Raptor, has the most powerful engine in the model lineup, an exclusive 3.0-liter turbo V6 with 405 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and 4WD. It can tow up to 5,500 lb and carry up to a 1,411-lb payload.

It’s the only trim with standard skid plates, tow hooks, and 33-inch BFGoodrich K03 all-terrain tires. Its six upfitter switches let you connect and control external equipment with a smart device. Options include forged beadlock-capable wheels, which secure your tires more firmly in place while driving off-road.
