It's known for offering multiple terrain-conquering features while also providing plenty of engine performance and towing power to make every drive a memorable one. Here are the six features we hear the most praise about from new owners and drivers of the 2021 Ford Ranger. 1. Automatically Maintain Off-Road Speed When driving on off-road trails, the available Trail Control System allows you to set the vehicle at a specific speed between 1 and 20 miles per hour. Unlike a typical cruise control feature, it doesn't turn off if you decide to use the brakes to slow down or stop. It also helps to give the Ranger better performance on uneven ground by adjusting throttling and brake pressure as needed. more 2. Plenty of Power While Still Fuel Efficient The 2.3-liter turbocharged engine is capable of providing up to 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. That means it's fully able to navigate both city streets and off-road trails with ease.

Haul the Heavy Loads Seamlessly With up to 7,500 pounds of available towing capacity and a maximum 1,860-pound payload, the 2021 Ranger packs more punch than other trucks within its class. All of this can be easily handled by its 10-speed automatic SelectShift transmission, allowing it to haul even the heaviest loads with smooth shifting. 4. A Performance Package With Style Rangers equipped with the optional FX2 package have telltale decals affixed to their sides, as well as OWL tires for improved grip and performance when off-road. There's also the electronic locking rear differential, which provides more traction to the rear wheels if you should get stuck in sand or mud. Also, a steel bash plate is added with this package to better protect the vehicle's front end. 5. Apply Traction to Where It's Most Needed Traction when off-road is not a problem thanks to the available electronic-locking rear differential. It locks the rear axle so both wheels gain optimal traction when needed, which can help the vehicle pull itself out of mud or other thick terrains. 6. Instant Four-Wheel Action While Driving The Electronic Shift-On-The-Fly (ESOF) feature allows you to turn a dial to instantly switch from two-wheel-drive to 4x4 mode while the vehicle is in motion. Additionally, there are two different two-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive modes as well, allowing you to shift into the most appropriate mode without skipping a beat.
