Ford is boosting one of the industry’s hottest models by launching the new Ranger 4×4 XLS Special Edition in September as the Ranger 4×4 already has seen sales rise nearly 40 per cent compared to the same time last year while taking more than 21 per cent of the 4×4 pick-up segment and again beating Hilux 4×4 in monthly sales during July.
The Ranger 4×4 XLS Special Edition offers unsurpassed 3500kg towing capacity^^, rear view camera and rear parking sensors and builds on the critical acclaim Ranger has recently enjoyed, with the Ford Ranger XLT awarded Drive Best Ute 2015, CarSales Best Tradie Vehicle 2015 and CarSales Best Offroad 4×4 2015.
“Already considered one of the most capable and desirable pick-up trucks on the market, we expect the Ranger 4×4 XLS Special Edition will help us narrow the gap to Toyota even further, with Ranger 4×4 now only 172 units behind the Hilux 4×4 year-to-date,” said Graeme Whickman, CEO and President, Ford of Australia.
Ranger was designed and engineered in Australia, and the addition of the Ranger 4×4 XLS Special Edition demonstrates how Ford’s commitment to local customers extends beyond the billions invested in local R&D
