'Unleashing Power: Ford Ranger XL's Turbo Thrills! 🚀💥 Revving up the competition as it dominates the roads. From 0 to 100 km/h in just 11 seconds, leaving Toyota Hilux and Nissan Navara in the dust! 🔥🏁 FordRangerXL TheCitizenMotoring🚗💨'
base model that came in at 118 kW and 385 Nm. I was obviously expecting my new generation Ranger to be quicker, but I was not expecting a 0 to 100 km/h time of 11.02 seconds compared to 15.79 seconds.This is about as far apart as you can get when testing one model versus another. It means the new generation Ford Ranger single turbo gets to the national speed limit of 120 km/h in just over 300m. The old Ranger gets there in a very long 600m.
Much to my surprise, this base level Ranger saw off both the Navara and the Hilux. The duo could only muster 0 to 100 km/h times of 12.19 seconds and 12.38 seconds respectively.By the 400m mark the Hilux was starting to come. It still had not got around the Ranger at the 800m mark, but it was now travelling faster than the Ford. The poor Navara never caught up with the Ranger at 400m or 800m.
