- In this video I am very excited to share with you my Gen2 Ford Ranger Raptor. I just collected this vehicle last week and traded in my last generation Ranger Raptor.
This part 1 of the owner's review series is a static review of the exterior and interior of the car. I will make more detailed videos of the driving impressions, the drive mode system, and maybe road trips in the future. So please subscribe and stay tuned for more Raptor contents. Cheers!

The vents are functional. Hood and side. They are heat extractors
As far as I can tell they are not, there are no holes in these vents
@@phrankeeecars I'm curious about regional differences. I'm guessing you're in NZ (Auckland noted there). It looks like yours has 4 forward parking sensors, whereas the AU models appear to have 6. No idea why that would be, apart from regional design standards or something. But that could be a reason for a difference. I mean, it's not like it gets hot over there :) (haha I know, I ran an Ironman race in Wanaka in 39oC temps...)
@@phrankeeecars There are small openings in the side vents (I just checked mine with a torch), but the on the inside of the hood vents, they are obstructed by heat shielding making them.... not very functional.
@scott.the.falcon really not sure, so even the sensors are different? That seems odd... seems like they have so many variants for different countries, NZ doesn't get memory seats either
@auswi I just did a very detailed investigation this morning, and I am happy to report that all vents are functional, it's just that the opening is so small, it's hard to see. The hood has a couple round holes underneath that allow air to flow to the vents
My dream car ❤️❤️🌠🌠
Haha, it is pretty awesome, what do you like about it?
This is beast fire
You like this beast? 😁
The vents are indeed functional my friend.
Yup, they are indeed, I did find out after making the video 😁
You enjoying your Raptor?
You have the same steering wheel button layout as in Thailand, which means you have to answer the phone on the touch-screen. This is so easy to get wrong when you're driving as your arm is moving about. A phone button on the steering wheel would've been ideal, as in all other cars.
Other than that the car is excellent, it far exceeds our expectations. My wife got her Raptor in Thailand on the 22nd of September as we booked in November 2021, before knowing basically anything about the car. Ideal for Thailand's potholed roads.
I totally agree with you, the phone button is a pain... there are a few other things as well, I will try to make another video on some of the minor details of the car, anything else you fine less ideal?
@@phrankeeecars Thanks for the reply, I would've loved memory seats as they are not available in the Thai spec. My wife is a foot shorter than me but at least we both use the same steering wheel and mirror settings so it's not a biggie.
We were both of the impression that Ford really went to town on this one to shut the competition up well and good. Did they succeed? Hell yes.
@@phrankeeecars Oh, by the way, the vents are definitely functional, I just checked, both hood and fenders.
@@KimCJorgensen omg... that is such a good point! I wish they had memory seats too, your situation is exactly the same as mine, it will be much easier for my wife to drive with the memory function. I think europe gets this function?
You are right, I just had a detailed inspection also, and they are functional. But the opening is so small, I am not sure how effective they are... well, at least they are functional so I am happy about that, haha
Thanks for the review Frank. I picked up my Raptor last week from John Andrew Ford. I was worried that after a 6 month wait, and the built-up expectation, that I would be disappointed. Nope. This thing is amazing! I have only just started to give it a push (trying to be nice on run-in which I am told you don't need, but still want to do) and WoW! Acceleration and noise for what is essentially a dual cab ute, is just on another level. There are some bits that are missing though: Assisted Parking and Spray in Bed Liner. Utemaster load lid is getting fitted this week. The B&O sound system is more than adequate, and I am still learning how to drive the screens (thanks for the tip on swiping up to move a tile to full screen).
So glad you are loving it man! The performance is definitely next level, especially for a large ute like this, haha, what color is yours?
@@phrankeeecars I was lucky to pick up a cancelled order in June. But that meant that I didn't get to choose the colour. Mine's white. I would have gone with blue first if I had a choice.
White looks pretty amazing too imo, contrast well with the black grill and black trims 😁
@@auswi what's the reason you're missing the assisted parking? I thought the only option is the electric bed cover, or was it different for earlier models? I should receive mine in about a month, but since I'm in the EU it's detuned to 292hp. I hope I can get either the US or AU tune for it somewhere.
@@MrRandomTwat The NZ versions only have four parking sensors front and rear, so they physically miss out on the sensors required for full parking assist. Bit frustrating as the AU versions have them, so would have been just as simple to spec it for the NZ ones given they come from the same factory in Thailand and would have cost about $50...
Does your Raptor have memory function for the driver seat? I guess the European version is pretty similar (except lower power output) to NZ version, whereas the US version has some differences like KO3 tires, sliding rear window and different drive modes - and in Driving Sports TV's Raptor it has memory for the driver seat, which I think we don't get in Europe.
Yo love the vid. Is the rear bumper steel ??
Thank you, glad you liked it, yes it's steel
I am replying from the U.S.
When did you find out you could order your Raptor? How long did it take you to also get it once ordered? Love your truck and video.
Hi, glad you liked the video! I ordered mine in April, and received the car in Nov, so the lead time was about 6 months give or take. Are you thinking of ordering one as well?
@@phrankeeecars Wow! That’s fast turn around time! Yes, I’m do plan on ordering one. I’m trying to work with a local dealership to give me a heads-up with they will be available to preorder here in the US.
@@angelberrios7843 it's an amazing truck, I am sure you will love it
@@angelberrios7843 Have you had any updates on the ordering opening for the Ranger Raptor on the States?
@@valtervalentinuzzi7788 no big updates on the Ranger Raptor on order date opening, just information that Ranger opening date is April 17.
Thanks for the review !
With the driver seat adjusted for 1.90m height driver ... a passenger with the same height, can seats behind the driver seat ?
Woo, I think that might be a squeeze, because I am 175, and after adjusting the driver's seats to my driving position, if I jump to the back, my knees don't have a lot of room already, so I would imagine if you are both 190, it's going to be tight?
I actually measured properly again, when I sit at the back with my driving position, i still have 2 fists of space for my knees, so seems pretty ok
@@phrankeeecars This is the info I wanted to hear :-) THANKS !
@@ntinospis8703 no problem, let me know if there are anything else you would like to know
Beautiful car, nice review! Just wish it came with the amber light markers like the f150 raptor…
Yup, I guess that's why it's a level lower than the F150 Raptor in the Ford family tree? F150 has definitely got more features than the Raptor 😆
@@phrankeeecars nonetheless still an awesome machine! Wonder if those lights can be retrofitted onto the grille …
@mustafakassouma2744 I think you definitely can, I have seen people do that for the last gen Raptor, so I am pretty sure you are able to do that for the new gen
The indentations are there for the lights and I assume they will be present on the North American version.
This is beautiful truck. Too bad we don’t have them here in US.
I think it will be on sale in the US, maybe next year?
The vents are definitely functional.
Yup, you are right, I checked again in detail, they are functional, just the opening is very very small 😆
Merry Christmas! My Imagination Car!
Merry Xmas to you too, it's a pretty amazing vehicle isn't it? 😁
@@phrankeeecars Yes. Absolutely. Only in my Imagination I can drive this Awesome Truck. Here in the Philippines rich people are lining up ordering this Beast. Poor people like me just Imagination!!! New subs here from Phlippines!
@@sealoftheliving4998 thanks my man, hope you fulfill your dreams, you never know right? 👍
@@phrankeeecarsSoon Someday!
does it have interior ambient light? like the wildtrak?
Yes, there is, but I don't think you can change the color though
@@phrankeeecars not bad at all because on previous raptor it’s too dark interior. Thanks. I’m waiting to receive my black raptor this week
@@chaquilissak6131 wow, that's awesome man, congratulations, I think you will love it, let me know your thoughts on it
Bruh gg wind raped my ears!! xD overall great review :)
mine is coming in december got the white color
Haha, really sorry about the wind noise, will definitely improve on that in my next video. You are gonna love yours, it's an amazing truck? How long did you have to wait for it?
@@phrankeeecars Booked it on 24 oct they called today saying it's gonna arrive 20th Dec ... fyi i live in kuwait :D
@@i_am_djent that is awesome man, congrats! How much are they selling them over there?
@@phrankeeecars Thanks a bunch got it for around $63K US
@@i_am_djent that's similar to NZ price here, no markups?
Hello, please let us know the consumption. It's pretty big thing in EU. Can you do some real-world tests please and show the gauges... need to decide between wiltrack and raptor.
Right now I have driven about 500km, about 80% city driving and 20% highway, and I am on 17l/100km, so the fuel efficiency is not great. If fuel efficiency is very important to you, then this is probably not the vehicle for you
I have just ticked over 1,000ks on mine, and average is 13.0 per 100. Mostly 80-100k zones, with some city and motorway stop start. All things equal, it is about 2-3 litres more than my previous 2019 Ford Escape over similar roads.
I am mostly interested for 500-1000 miles trips. So I guess i gotta test a diesel. Curious on a very long mostly national roads and highway.
@Brenden Maher How is your mileage now 2 months after your last comment ?
@@valtervalentinuzzi7788 Still sitting on 13lt/100 after 5,500 ks. Highway driving is about 11lt/100. Last big trip, I would say you would easily get 700ks from a full tank. The thing to keep in mind is your driving style, where you drive (city/hwy) and how much load you have in it. It is 2.5 tonnes, so the more stop/start and throttle you use, the consumption goes up. One week, I was on 15/100, but I was exploring Sport mode and launches ;-) I don't do much city driving, but often crawl along a motorway. If you live in the 'burbs, I can totally see a 17+ number is likely.
Couple of your information at the start of the vids are wrong. Not sure about the rest as I've stop watching midway.
Oh really? please correct me, thanks pointing it out😁
You I guess you got to have thick skin to make videos on here, because the critics are horrible! People are so negative these days and have nothing better to do. Need to be more positive.
@@angelberrios7843 thanks so much for your encouragement man, really appreciate that 😁
Way too much wind noise.
I agree, sorry about that, and thanks for pointing it out. will do better in my next vid
