Ford Ranger Raptor 2020 review

- Ford’s Ranger Raptor is the right car at the right time for the Australian car market.
Just as V8 Commodores and turbocharged Falcons start leaving driveways, they’re increasingly being replaced by diesel dual cabs with all the gear.
The Raptor lands just at the right time to make a splash, shaking the established dual cab hierarchy up by introducing our ute-obsessed population to a new kind of performance car. One where an engine is less important than other attributes.
Does the Raptor really hit its mark? Can it possibly live up to its self-generated hype? I drove one for a week to find out.
Our test included day-to-day driving and demonstrations of luggage stowing, as you'll find just as many Raptors doing the daily grind as you will on Australia's off-road trails.
Can such a large dual-cab survive in the city? Those considering one as a dual-purpose vehicle should know if it's inconvenient to live with a truck with expanded dimensions in one of Australia's capital cities.
Do you miss out on any spec items if you choose the Raptor over another dual-cab? We pour over the cabin to find out whether it's as special inside as it is on the outside.
Is it good to drive? Does the 2.0L bi-turbo engine cut it? We answer that, too, as well as how it compares to main competitors like the HiLux and Navara.
And, we find out what active safety the Raptor comes with.
Remember for more on all these details, you can read the full review on-site at CarsGuide.com.au.

We bought one and picked it up Friday!! LOVE IT! So quiet, smooth and B I G ! In awe.
Is it quicker than the ild 3.2 engine??
I’ve been looking for a day to day reviews on dual cabs. Most people don’t go 4wding. We need more of this. Thank you!
These will be a great 2nd hand pick up considering most of them will have never been off road and owned by lawyers and accountants
This is the best review I've seen of this truck! Keep them coming!
06:57 Where did the truck go?
3:27😂😂😂 that fiesta should go to driving school ...
Ford needs to bring this to the US!
Mario Lastra and the f-150 Raptor to germany
Too small
They won't because they keep the f150 raptor in the USA and the ranger raptor over seas so they can sell both of them for $80k+.
if they brought the ranger raptor to the United States it would decimate their F-150 raptor sales. Because most people that want an F-150 raptor aren't buying one for towing and they would rather have the Ford ranger raptor.
Ford's already saod on multiple occasions that they won't bring the ranger raptor to the United States.
Which is unfortunate because I would pay 45k for a Ford ranger raptor in America and I won't buy an F-150 raptor. I have an f150 fx4 with Max tow package I got for sub $30k.... No need for an f150 raptor.
why would anybody buy an F-150 raptor for off-roading when they could have a Ford ranger raptor.
That's why they're not bringing it to the USA.
We will get the Bronco Raptor spec
@@creamcheese7845 too small for country or haul/ tow oriented work trucks but my current work truck in Canada is a Ram 1500.... I tow seldom, haul little and 99% of the time am by myself... I do need 4x4 and ground clearance so a truck is the ticket but am considering a 1/4 tonne for the next one....
Im in love with this truck
You are the best reviewers I get back from school hoping for you to upload
Glad you enjoyed! - TW
They need to bring the price down!!!
kennethh_c
Not while they are selling them all.
Damn $76k you guys down under have it hard you can get a fully spec f150 size raptor in the states
@@melvin5818 i knowwww😭😭😭 my dream car.
damn and I thought its expensive here in the Philippines, this is priced 51k or 1.9 million pesos here
@@melvin5818 yes sir, we are absolutely robbed, get this Dodge Ram Laramie 1500, up to $116,000.00 USD. BASE MODEL Ram 1500 $62000 USD, plus they bring in a truck freshly built in the USA, and pull it apart and rebuild it to right hand drive, I’m not talking conversion , I’m talking full rebuild. Australia’s market is flooded with Asian pick ups and we want US pick ups, but US factories won’t tool up for the Australian market and our government applies luxury car tax on top.
Is that left headlight broken?
Very good and spot on Video! I drive this truck through City streets and i do not face any troubles at all. Perfect truck - even innercity!
Thank you so much! Finally a daily driver review. Gonna buy it next week, also in blue, but around the world in Switzerland ;)
Just signed the contract today. Will get it on Friday. :D
@@AriHD how does it feel?
Cody Maverick the faster you go the softer it gets (offroad). On streets like a ship. City parking is finally fun (challenging) 😇
@@AriHD nice, thanks
I like it. I'm not even in the ute market and I'll consider getting this as my 4WD. They probably would be great buys in the used-car market in a few years time.
Had mine since Feb best car I’ve ever owned it actually has enough grunt as it’s not a drag car, but 840 kilometres per tank is awesome
I have a 3.0 v6 td touareg. Weighs 2.8t and highway I can get it as low as 5 litres per 100km.
75 litre tank gets on city driving around 850 to 900kms.
200kw And over 650nm torque
Have you taken it over any good jumps?
@@johnconnor2969 have you?
One of my favorite pickup truck after Wildtrak. Raptor is the raptor. Oh yeah.. #FordLover
Neat &, clean reviw mate
Really need this here in my country where the pave roads are horrible(pot holes horrible) , frequent flooding, some roads 10% are not event pavement.
Does it come with tyre pressure monitoring like the wildtraks?
Best colour luggage ever.
Wow!! Super beast!!!
I wonder when they are going to officially release this (or possibly with the 2.7 v6 twin turbo instead?) for the North American market
What's up with the lights 05:26 ?
Does it come with the steering wheel on the left side? Asking for an American.
I can't wait till they release this thing in the states, I'm already a big f150 raptor fan, and this would only add to my love for raptor models.
I think this should be part of tools in the shed this week. That's lots of money for a Thai built ute. Bit of a price gouge I reckon or is it justified?
Yep, the two girls were definitely checking our the Raptor..still its the Wildtrak for me, swapping my 3.2 for the biturbo
This one should win ute of the year 2019 - 2020_
Ultimate car mate!! Pity I can't afford one
I love the bakkie it is big and powerful
Here in Europe I think it is just perfect. Wait until your (non EU) fuel prices raise to our levels. Then you will quickly realise that Ford has built a masterpiece for the European market. And here they also come standard with a roll cover, crossbars and tow hook. Couldn't wish for a better work/leisure package. And it is quiet in the cabin due to the active noise cancelation. Which switches tone when changed to Sports mode.
YEah m8, here in Portugal haven't seen any yet. With Diesel high price and 10liters/100km its a beast for us. There must be a Box as accessory. For the narrow streets we have here on history downtown are of Porto...that beast will get stuck but I'm so in love with this!
Here in Spain also 9 months delivery time. Ford South Africa has pumped up production to 2 shifts. But they also depend to their parts suppliers.
I have visited quite a lot in Portugal and understand what you mean. But if small delivery trucks can bring supplies to the stores, the Raptor will be able to reach these places too.
Good ole taxes eyy...
I love it 😍😍😍😍😍
bro is this build in Thailand or any other country....
6:32 heigth?
Wow, this truck is 80 grand here in QLD. That's...that's, a lot. So much on the market for that money. NOW. I will edit this, cause after a few beers this arvo I rang the local Ford dealer and of course they wanted my to basically give them my bank account details over the phone but a got a drive away price if 84 grand for this truck. Nuts.
84? You got a BS quote my friend. 73300 is all I paid.
@@MrJohnny863 Of course it's a BS price. I agree with you. But I got it over the phone. But that does not mean that it's a false price. You can look it up for yourself. Pacific Ford Caloundra. It is in stock. White. Drive away price of $80 990 on their website. I wanted floor mats and a quality tonneau cover. 84 grand he said. Now I suspect if I went there, haggled bargained and generally annoyed them - or got a broker to do my bidding … I am sure I would get it cheaper. 👍
@@gregwallace9035 sorry mate I should rephrase....When I say BS...I mean only that, that is to much. Most dealers are taking 10k off the price.
My dream truckkkk woo
I like this truck
They don't sell them here, but I'm moving to the Philippines in the next couple of weeks (they no longer sell new ones there, but old is fine) The roads in the Philippines are rough and full of holes, everybody complains. I think this will suit me there quite well. Just a side note, as a retired trucker, you made me cringe when you changed lanes into that trucks safety buffer area. Please be further along before pulling in front of trucks, we appreciate that gap for safety. Great review
Be awesome if only it came with a 200kw V6 diesel or a stomping V8. Looks great but the sedate looking VW Amarok V6 leaves it for dead. Make it go how it looks!!
But you need to make sense. Why would they put a V8 in this and then make it outperform their F150 Raptor which is higher up in their model hierarchy?? 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
@@MrVroom1 because it looks like it should be quicker than the competition eg. Mercedes X class V6 and VW Amarok V6. It has the suspension of a trophy truck it ought to go like one aswell
@@TheCardinal365 it's confirmed they're bring the v6 to this raptor for the US market.
They actually made this for Europe and Middle East where the engine displacement is important for the taxes, that's why they need to keep that engine small. For example in my country, which is Turkey, we pay yearly tax for our cars and this tax is directly determined by the engine displacement. If your engine is bigger than 2 lt your tax should be twice, even three times more...And I'm not talking about a small amount of money, that tax could be almost as much as the price of that car if it has smaller than 2 lt engine 😁
the V6 Courier
How much
6:57 nice
When in the hell is this coming to the U.S.!
Why has it got a 2 litre
I’m happy with my fx4
Why are you testing this in the city
Needs LED tail lights.
Needs grill amber Raptor lights.
Bed should have BAKflip cover included.
Yute?
When I saw that price, I stopped watching.
I guess the price was in Australian Dollar and its equivalent in US Dollar is $50,503
Same
About $39k usd here in Philippines
@@lanzonex4WD$125K in Nepal 😞
That is my dream car!!! Absolutely stunning
absolutely - i have never owned nor driven a better car than this. just gorgeous!
What's like to park in say a local car park at the supermarket? Width-wise etc.
That's probably my only concern.
@@gerardstephens3278 The truck basically needs more than just one parking spot - if we are not talking about US size parking spots.
I am living in a big City with parking problems but i did never regret to buy this truck. it is such a fantastic truck that the last thing i would mind is the with of a supermarket parking lot.
I only came to watch Tom. 😍🤤❤️ Nice Review yet again.
H Maccas either way suits me! 🤣🤟🏻
I love the raptor and would love to get one but a bit costly given it’s got the same engine as the other rangers. I think the HiLux or dmax is a little too small but a f150 or a ram is too large and the raptor seems like the perfect compromise, if it were a bit cheaper but I doubt they’ll drop the price.
Ahahaa you were right, they didn’t drop the price instead they increased it to $10,000. I just paid 87k for mine pick up next week
Just paid 85 for used with 13k on it 🤣
Test driving a full blown off roader on perfectly tarred roads in the city ????
If they bring it out with the 2.3 eco boost from the american rangers id sell my wildtrak tomorrow and trade up.
It's a good looking truck, but its so expensive for a Truck. They really jack up the price ,nothing special just a regular truck with special amenities.
Didn’t know this existed, for the cost u might buy a stock ranger and lift it , get some fender flares, grill and wheels. Prob save u some big money. Tail lights are ugly I’d want after market ones.
Just sold my 2020 after 13 months. Great looking beast obviously. But they have odd glitches with the infotainment, auto is problematic on changes and they ar underpowered in my opinion. Don’t expect Ford dealers to fix the glitches, as they r well known and not acknowledged as an issue. Patrol was refined and these are not, just an overpriced Ranger POV pack
Best honest review yet
Whose the new kid? He's refreshingly good.
The Prophecy Cat he’s not new. 🤣
Sure "sponsored" by Autotrader is accurate? Aren't you the same company?
yeap basically
Why can’t we have it here in the us : (
Wish theyed send it to the states already. If they do i hope it has a different engine tho that things pitiful. That price is 20k more then the f150 raptor starts at here in the u.s😂 a fully loaded f150 is like $75k
30k more than a Gls premium triton... it would want to be good.
how much
please sent me quote
Truck?? Someone has visions of grandeur!!...
This is sold at 39k in the philippines!
6:56... looks good from behind...
Here is a playlist of DIY how to videos about the Ford Ranger, have a watch: th-cam.com/play/PL7o6Xtv_7n4m-LY38xZrNwtFM9UB5Ard_.html
why the raptor there so expensive? here in Philippines it's only $40k
Russel Dave Espineli must be the inport tax the government charge mate.u are lucky.
if it had the wildtrak’s dashboard it would be better
For that price you might as well buy a full Raptor F150. Damn! That's expensive!!
I’ve driven most ford Ute/SUV it’s all the same lol in terms on interior designs 😂
Ford Ranger
Ford Wild track
Ford Raptor
Everest
Ford Escape
Of course they do. The Ranger, Raptor, Wildtrak and Everest all use the same chasis they're called pickup based SUV's. This is nothing new. Same thing with the Hilux/Fortuner and Montero/Strada
Great looking beast, but it just doesn’t tick all the boxes. Amarok v6 drive train kills it. But lacks tech. Lot of cash for some wheels and pumped up,wheel arches..
You obviously haven’t driven one. Raptor kills the Amrok off road and is at least ad good on road.
Mike Suahtla .ive driven both rangers and Amaroks and they are nothing like each other, VW 20% more refined power is a no brainer for the mechanical spec. I’m sure raptor is ok off road, but I’ve never come across one on any trips.
lmao, sorry dude raptor shits all over amarok offroad, amarok wins hands down at the lights but thats it
@@mikesuahtla9826 Most people don't drive off road mate. The amarok, with a levelling kit, remap, and some decent wheels/tires combo massively outperforms the r-raptor. Most off roaders drive hiluxes and wildtraks anyway so the r-raptor is a moot decision. People buy them thinking they're like the full size in the states, when in reality it's a mess of a car with serious flaws.
The ford raptor is my dream car, however being extremely broke does my help
Still cant find a good honest review of the raptor off road with people clip of if flying around on roads like tell people how it goes off road in low gears
Well, do we have a treat for you, mate - watch this: th-cam.com/video/sME4Lv1OnCo/w-d-xo.html. Thanks for taking the time to watch our vids and comment. - Crafty
fall in love
Lol When someone calls a ford ranger “Large”! American here, that things tiny compared to the majority of the trucks on our roads. I can see why you guys don’t have the F150 Raptor.
We do have the f150 raptor in Australia.
Yeah well I guess you need big trucks to make up for d ikkle tings you have!
@@shaunthompson5163 Ha! sorry bud that doesn't work on me. American Black guy here. ;D
@@drc133 really! that's cool, didn't know. every time i see a review for trucks there its always mid size. figured a full size is rare.
take up down Big red as is! The we will see how good it is
Still no AEB ?
LOL
Wish this car had came out with the barra motor...
Yep. I’d buy it then
In normal sealed road, ranger wildtrak will beat this... This at least need to be fitted with 2.3 ecoboost engine with higher hp.
I just get married with ford mustang and still love her, I will change to raptor after I get bored with GT😉
Why doesn’t it come with the same level of technology as the Wildtrack? Very very disappointing.
Cause its an "offroad machine"
i think they'll add those on next year's facelift.
Istimiwir wong...
Im surprised North America didn't get this truck first...
hay lắm
Man if they sell it in Mexico, I would by it there and bring to the U.S
that engine for 76k$? Hahaha
Exactly.
lan Patrick i own one, ive owned many fast and powerful cars and 4wds let me just say its better than you think its just my opinion but it tows everything i have i wanna tell ford engineers how well they have done!! couldnt be more happier
What's wrong with a 4 cyl turbo? I've seen 4 cylinder turbo engines put out 530 hp, nothing to laugh at.
If there's one thing Ford is good at it's four and six cylinder turbo engines.
The F-150 EcoBoost with a 3.5 v6 twin turbo is one of the best motors they've ever made. 365hp and 410 ft/lb torque in a v6, stock..
Come on give us what we all want, the V8 Raptor.
Watch the price skyrocket above $100k
*turbo barra
You guys are totally reckless, driving a light commercial vehicle like that in a densely populated area, without first notifying the authorities and obtaining road closures, the use of a pilot and some spotters. This is perhaps the most terrifying video on all of TH-cam.
Why dont they sell these in United states
Because u have F150 Raptor with that beasty V6 :D The engine in this is too small for USA, in Europe we pay taxes by the engine size, bigger than 2 liters it means u r in trouble :)
@ 😂👍👍👍
@matt s Tacoma has 2.7 liter 4 cylinder and a 3.5 liter V6...Not a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder diesel engine. Which was the exact point of my comment, we for example pay taxes for our cars due to its engine displacement, also fuel is super expensive here, that's why they put a smaller engine. On the other hand, I don't think there's such a tax system for USA, also fuel is super cheap compared to middle east and asia.
I wish I liked Ford cars, but I can't. I fell out of love with them too long ago. This Ranger might be great but growing up in a ford family and having 20 years (1970's to 90's) with Ford cars that were just appalling crap... I broke away and moved on. Never going back. Good review though. 👍
I suppose a bird of prey is a dinosaur, really.
An avian dinosaur.
Shaggy???
Hmm guys, go to 6.54 and zoom in on the headlight. Is that someone’s face? Spooky….😲
It can spin the rear wheels coz it’s running bfg’s not because of power 😂
A review of a off road vehicle in a city. Idk about that.
car made for real drivers and off roading no need of all those safety sensors and cameras.
ill go tacoma
It is not a truck
Same as the 2019 model😂
That is the 2019 version. That blue colour isn't in the 2020 range
@@MrJohnny863 exactly, all you could come up with is the different colour...
@@alexthetic lol the 2020 version is slightly different. The one in the video isn't a 2020 version. Ie: headlights are different, colour and extra USB point in 2020 version.
So its still not an F150, still has all the F150 negatives, and has no modern features.
