V6 petrol is ford Ranger raptor exclusive. Wont be in any VW versions. V6 diesel will be shared across platforms though
I gotten mine just last week and its been a blast to drive, although its a fuel guzzler. But i managed to get as low as 14l/100km. Earlier it was 17l/100km but that's just me enjoying that V6 engine 😋 all in all, really happy with it
booked 4 months ago and still didnt get mine. How long your waiting list? just cant wait to get mine
@@viralsangat3366 Booked mine last June and am expected to have it end of next month... there is a 10 week delivery from Thailand even after its built.
Have you got an accessories yet? front bonnet struts? rear tailgate damper etc?
@@julianfoster9896 wow.. almost 10 months still didnt get it.
Had mine on order since end of May 22 in UK. Due in 3 weeks
That looked like fun ! Someone was listening....you kept your thumbs on the outside of the wheel 👍
I would absolutely love one of those! And the Raptor too!
I really envy you having some fun in this car Tish, I really want one but around here here I would be as popular as a magpie at a jewellery convention. Nowhere to park it. Many thanks for sharing Tish, great work!
Excellent features on the Ranger Raptor, seats, steering and the self moving automatic gear shift. For a heavy pickup truck it moves very fast. Good job by Ford. 👍👍👍.
Always really liked the idea of having one of these (although not in a car park 😂) Great review as always Tish and what a great day around the course! Reminds me of the Land Rover experience day we did when my Mum bought her Discovery Sport!
You would be surprised, it’s looks so massive because the bonnet is really tall but it does genuinely fit in a regular space! It even has automatic parking 🅿️
@@AutoSocialUK Well that’s excellent, maybe one day then 👍 When I was stuck in the snow on the motorway recently and a load of these were wizzing past it really made me want one 😂
I enjoyed watching the Video. My favourite Off Road Pickup Truck
Glad you enjoyed it! Awesome isn’t it 🔥
oi mate it's a fookin truck innit?
I think the drive train is really similar, if not the same, to the Bronco Raptor available in the US.
I have had since last September in Thailand I’m not an off road user just had to have speed and power that it delivers so effortlessly and yes it’s now increased in price. Not much can keep up with it on the road but on the other hand it’s pretty dangerous. Currently running at 13.2L/100km.
Thinking of buying one when in Thailand , what colour did you get?
@@cryptocrusader6078 I have the White go to Ford Thailand you can see the specs. Limited choices of Black/White/Red/Grey. That’s one of the negatives besides the lack of 3.0L option not being available on the Wildtrack in Thailand which would’ve suited my needs. Fords sales strategy is a bit dumbfounding when they build certain variants and colours in Thailand but only offer them in Australia for example. BTW if anyone in the UK is buying a Ranger they come from South Africa although the Raptor I’m not too sure where it arrives from in the UK.
If you have it in 2nd. Is the fuel economy better?
The punchy feel isn't due to the 288hp.It's the 362 lb ft of torque lower down in the rev range. The 0 to 62 mph time is actually pretty bad. The F250 crew cab diesel does the same sprint in under 6 seconds. Even the F450 is quicker than the UK spec Ranger Raptor.
I was today’s years old when I found out “sniggered” was a word. I was baffled at first 😂
Is it a word?…. Because it wouldn’t be the first time I made one up 😂
@@AutoSocialUKyes it is
What’s it tow like? Plenty of torque for a livestock trailer?
Great review, but I can't believe your BHP figure? Here in Australia the 3.0 V6 gets 292 KW or 391 BHP. I am not into pick up trucks or utes but now I want one.....I think I am off to see the Ford dealer.
288bhp - all to do with emission regulations 🥺
Even here in South Africa it's 292 KW
Thailand's got the 292 kW version as well. It's a blast. 5.5s to 100km/hr, it just screams to go faster. Got it since October last year and it's a blast.
They've just introduced a lower spec version with the old BiTurbo 2L Diesel. Priced it the same as I paid last year and the V6 is now 180k THB more expensive. Thanks Ford, my Raptor just got valued higher!! lol..
I can't wait for this to come to America so I can buy one
Just get the f150 😂 I have one in the UK and its mental
Does the UK have a single place where you can enjoy the long travel baja suspension?
I think you would probably need to book an off-road day ☺️ I think there is a few off-road tracks
In the UK there are over 5,000 miles of Green Lanes / legal byways which can be used by motor vehicles. On top of this you have companies doing private tours, clubs (like ourselves) and private off-road sites which you can pay to enter. The Baja track in the video is at Slindon 4x4 in the South Downs 🙂
Just an average uk road with the amount of pot holes 😅
Just being it to Manchester. Massive pot holes so you can use the suspension to the max
That's a Ranger Wildtruck only in the Philippines
I wouldn’t buy it at 288hp but at 392hp I certainly would
Theres this thing called a remap
Any know what a standard remap would gain? 3.0 v6
about 50hp
I looked at an instragram comment on Volkswagen engines, only decent Volkswagen engine is the four pot Diesel, just about all Volkswagen petrol engines are bad for burning oil especially turbo engines, when I bought and sold cars that’s what I would find, Ford V8 and V6 engines are great and can do very high mileage if maintained correctly and I’m talking 300,000 miles plus, where you could have a Volkswagen Scirocco GT 11 wore out at 80,000 miles
Team American music 😂
If only we didn’t live in rip off Britain and these were actually realistically affordable.
Why do you get the powered down version? In Australia this monster has 392 HP and 583 Nm of torque! I spent a week with it and I didn't want to give it back 🥲
I believe the new Ranger Raptor is an improvement over the previous gen model, cos of the V6 engine added.
To me, I’m not fussed about the less power we get in Europe compared to Australia, South Africa, etc. It still has impressive off road capabilities; that’s the most important thing in my opinion.
I couldn’t agree with you more Dave!
Are you still happy with the white ?? Great Tru k. G luck.
White?
I think I have a crush……😊
Despite initial panic on Wall Street, analysts said SVB’s collapse is unlikely to set off the kind of domino effect that gripped the banking industry during the financial crisis.
Aux.....Auxiliary AKA upfitter switches.
Well the diesels id stay away from the 2ltr diesel engines were blowing up in the out going ranger and the 3ltr diesel if its the lion engine that was in the landrovers that to loves to blow up why landrover didnt ditch that engine earlier i just dont know
Never heard of one "blowing up" lol... what are youeven talking about?
@@ChrisDied the 2 ltr diesel is not reliable
@@noelcahill6707 all the 2lt diesels? The single and bi turbo?
@@noelcahill6707 just saying i jave never heard of one "blowing up" lol
@@ChrisDied iv had 3 rangers in my local area 2 ltr engine failed on the all had under 50000km
What sucked about the previous gen Ranger Raptor was how much Ford gouged you guys in Australia and Europe. Here in Southeast Asia, althought it was still the most expensive midsize truck ever it was still fairly affordable as it only cost us £28,540 converted. You guys got it for nearly £50k; nearly twice as much. That's mad.
If only it was priced fairly then people would have probably been less critical of it. For 28 grand, it was actually the best midsize truck ever made. Nothing in its class and price range could compete on or off road. But for 50 grand? It was just a glamorized Ranger.
What's continuously a bit disappointing is how the 2023 model with the diesel engine is £6000 more expensive than the outgoing model, and it drops the Fox Live Valve for the old 2.5in shocks. So you'd rather add 2k and get the V6, obviously.
The 2023 V6 Ranger Raptor will definitely be remembered in time as one of Ford's successes, but it's a damn shame that the previous model could have been that too. If only they offered it cheaper in Australia and the UK, when they could easily have and even managed to do in Southeast Asia.
Jaga jarak bila memberek. Kereta berat. Tayar bolih terkunci tp kereta bolih menggelongsor ke depan. Tayar kurang sesuai ketika diatas jalanraya.
Looks great but doesn’t have the 400hp version the Aussies get. 🤬
Wow, once again the EU eco Commies have strangled your HP output. We here in the states get just shy of 400hp.
I mean all this talk about the environment and here we have 18 mpg [if your lucky] lol
Yer it’s not great BUT there isn’t many monsters like this anymore 😅
@@AutoSocialUK Yeah there is that fun factor. Ive just spent 4 months with a GR yaris ,so really cant talk about MPG 🤣
EU rules… which we are no longer part of…. Ford should be providing the 400bhp model in the uk……
Even audi e6 is too big for uk roads..
I honestly didn't find it too bad.... maybe it's because im a good driver ;)
@@AutoSocialUK might be 🤣
In the Caribbean we have a running joke about FORD: Fix Or Repair Daily😂😂😂Man i just cant trust Ford 100% due to its "history". But then again, if i ever get a chance to drive one of these, car wash will be a nightmare afterwards😂
That's because you people moan about everything and pull your noses up thinking you know it all
I don’t follow you on Instagram, what is instagram? Is it for young cool people?
Instagram is nice photos and videos. It’s not for everyone but I put behind the scenes stuff on there.
