Spy Shots: 2024 Ford Ranger Lariat Caught Undisguised

[SID297]

From SEMA:

Here’s a first look at the ’24 Ford Ranger Lariat completely undisguised.

Ford officially debuted the next-gen Ranger last February, but only showed the EU and Global trims. It was crickets when it came to the U.S. market other than a guarantee from Jim Farley that the Ranger (and Raptor) would be on sale sometime in 2023.

Looking at these shots, the U.S. Ranger will be nearly identical to the Global Ranger. The only visible exterior differences are a sliding rear window, a high-mount brake light and a backup camera. Originally, it was thought that the U.S. Ranger would get an exclusive front end (due to camo’d prototypes after the international debut), but that won’t be the case.

Powertrain options are expected to remain the same, but with the addition of a hybrid option (we’re hearing PHEV) sometime in the future.

Expect an official debut for the U.S. Ranger in the coming months.

Man that front end is weak.

 

[Blk04L]

Hard to see a Tremor front end and then see that one.

Maybe if that bar was paint matched it'll look better. At least the rear taillights aren't 5 ft tall anymore.

 

[HudsonFalcon]

So bland and boring.

Basically looks like a bigger Maverick to me now.

Pretty much. I don’t see the point for 2 small trucks. If you can even count the maverick as a truck.

*yawn*

Mavericks are for man bun wearing, latte drinking hipsters hauling their bags of kitty liter and electric scooters.

It's way better than it was before.

It's way better than it was before.

agreed

I'd say it's a slight improvement over an incredible let down of a small truck

The first word that comes to mind is:

Underwhelming.

IMO, the updated GM twins crush it in the looks department.

 

[5.0 Hatch]

The jacked up rearend always steered me away from both the ranger and the gm twins. Is that a plastic bumper?

but it's not fugly and sadly that's an improvement lol

 

[SVT-BansheeMan]

Due to price, Santa Cruz and Maverick are still on the top of my list when my daily dies. I just need something with a bed to throw crap behind. I cant risk gas cans spilling in a car.

 

[Z06]

That is not a good looking truck.

Even Nissan did with the new Frontier.

 

[snakecharmer]

Interesting. I rather like the looks of the Ranger Raptor but this version is just....bleh. The new Chevrolet Colorado has a bolder look IMO.

 

[Corbic]

Looks like the first gen Chevy Colorado....

 

[PhoenixM3]

Looks like the first gen Chevy Colorado....

The new model is pretty sharp.....
