Expected to hit Australian soil in the next 12 months, the new 2024 Ford Ranger will offer plug-in hybrid power; marking the first step in Ford Ranger ‘electrification.’ That said, that same electrified Ranger will also be powered by the ‘2.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine’ found in the current Ford Ranger model. Four trim levels will ultimately be available, though some fans have speculated that the brand could also bring back the coveted Tremor trim for the new Ranger.
