For a family man who is a city dweller or a company accountant looking to purchase a fleet of workhorses that will deliver usage with minimal cost incurred, this Ranger FX4 with good safety features and car like cabin features should be taken into account with a Ford showroom visit and a detailed test drive.
Under the bonnet sits the frugal 2.2-litre 4-cylinder turbo diesel, which delivers good power and fuel economy over some rivals. On the road, the Ranger is easy to drive and even more reassuring it offers a solid presence, reasonably refined impressive power, a well-cushioned ride and surprising agility.
The driving position still remains good with great view out front and side and the Ranger FX4 sits high because of all the 4WD engineering under the cabin floor. A quick turn of the knob next to the gear lever selects all drive options 2H, 4H and 4L, which is a neat and easy system, which makes the hassle of 4×4 driving very convenient.

- 18” Alloy Wheel

- FX4 Exterior Colour Scheme (Painted Front Grill, Rear Bumper, Exterior Mirror, Fog Lamp Bezel and Door Handles)
