We subjected three Rangers to our 75-mph highway fuel-economy route, which is part of our extensive testing regimen. The all-wheel-drive version has estimates as high as 20 mpg city and 24 highway, but the Tremor model sees both ratings drop to 19 mpg. The EPA estimates the rear-wheel drive Ranger will earn up to 21 mpg city and 26 highway. As for payload, the Ranger is good for up to 1860 pounds. When equipped with the optional tow package, the 2022 Ford Ranger can tow up to 7500 pounds, and when towing, the truck’s power delivery remains smooth and consistent. Ford Ranger Revives '90s Splash Appearance Package.Four selectable drive modes are offered: Normal, Grass/Gravel/Snow, Mud/Ruts, and Sand. The Ranger is available with a Terrain Management System that tweaks things like engine responsiveness and transmission gearing to optimize the truck's performance on various types of terrain. Rear-drive models offer 8.4 inches of ground clearance, while four-wheel-drive versions offer 8.9 inches. With all Ranger trucks, a 10-speed automatic rules the roost, and it provides shifts that are smooth and quick. Things get even more impressive with the lighter Ranger XL, which surprised us with its speed and agility when we put it through its paces at the track.
There's enough muscle there to make the Ranger XLT we tested reasonably swift, and output is silky. Pop the hood of the 2022 Ford Ranger, and you'll be greeted by a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine that generates 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. We'd add the FX4 off-road suspension, a bed liner, and the 302A package that includes heated seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, dual-zone climate control, and an eight-inch touch-screen infotainment system. Our first choice, however, is the SuperCrew crew-cab body style dressed in the mid-level XLT trim and equipped with four-wheel drive.
It comes standard with forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking-things that are only available on the Chevrolet Colorado's and the GMC Canyon's highest trims.
It has all the power and ride quality of the other Rangers, but thanks to its smaller cab, rear-drive configuration, and lower level of standard equipment it’s not as heavy as the XLT and Lariat trims, meaning it’ll get up to speed a little quicker. If you’re going for value and performance, look to the base, XL extended-cab model, which Ford calls SuperCab.
