2016 Ford Ranger Wildtrak takes after 2015 Ford Everest SUV and it plain as a day that these two resemble each other. This mid-size pickup truck is going to continue to be one of the most popular cars in the class. There are several speculations that Ford is going to abandon 2.2 liter Duratorq but no official information was published. Some experts think that 2.7 l EcoBoost V6 will be placed instead Duratorq. We had a chance to see this engine in 2015 F-150 and it is most likely that same engine is going to be placed in 2016 Bronco. Although there is no official announcement about the engine, there is a plenty of information available to make a decent presentation of 2016 Ford Ranger Wildtrak.
2016 Ford Ranger Wildtrak Engine
As we have already mentioned in the introduction engine offer hasn’t been determined yet but we will present some of them which are most likely to be found under the hood of new Wildtrak. Apart from EcoBoost, Duratorq is still in the game. However, it is not clear whether 2.2l, 2.5l or 3.2l will be the best option for the new Wildtrak. Power figures of these three are very close and they go from 150 horsepower to 197 horsepower. All five of them are five-cylinders and they come with six-speed manual, which is standard, and optional six-speed automatic. Which engine is the best we cannot guess and we can just hope that engineers won’t make a mistake.
Interior and exterior of new 2016 Ford Ranger Wildtrak
2016 Ford Ranger Wildtrak will be released on 180 different markets. Cabin is one of the most spacious in the class of mid-size pickup trucks but we want to put emphasis on safety. Safety systems have been improved and it is considered to be the safest pickup truck. Interior appears to be simple but it is equipped with Ford Sync 2 navigation system, MyFord infotainment system and lots of other features. Also, new materials are going to be used for seats which now are going to be placed in three rows. Central console is equipped with 8-inch touchscreen which has become standard feature. If you compare 2016 Ford Ranger Wildtrak with previous model you will easily see that it is more luxurious.
2016 Ranger Wildtrak Release date and Price
Price won’t be too much different than price of the previous model and it will revolve around $20,000. Of course, this is not definite price and it will depend on the engine. Release date hasn’t been precisely determined but launching will happen until the end of the year.
