Ford Ranger 2.2L XL 4×4 Double Cab manual gearbox selling for RM79,888

Ford has just launched its latest addition to the all-new Ranger family in Malaysia – the 2.2L XL 4×4 Double Cab variant, available at the price of RM79,888.  Ideal for fleet buyers who expect a tough utility pick-up truck with a rugged yet refined interior, the all-new Ford Ranger XL Double Cab features the proven Duratorq TDCi 2.2L diesel engine that delivers 125 PS of power and 320 Nm of torque.This additional variant also offers exceptional fuel consumption from as low as 8.1L/100 km2. This fuel consumption figure combined with the 80-litre fuel tank that comes with all all-new Rangers, gives the XL variant a potential range of more than 1,000 km from a single tank of diesel.
The taut and muscular all-new Ford Ranger XL has been developed to ensure it can stand up to the toughest challenge. Commercial users looking to transport heavy materials will welcome the all-new Ford Ranger XL’s outstanding payload capacity of more than 1,000 kilogrammes.
Customers will also appreciate the class-leading water-wading capability of 800 millimetres, even when fully laden, and excellent ground clearance of 200 millimetres – allowing the all-new Ford Ranger to go deeper and climb higher.
For those aiming to go off the beaten track, Ford has enhanced the 4×4 all-new Ford Ranger’s superior off-road capability with a new upgraded rear axle and lower overall ratios. A robust, electronically-controlled transfer case allows drivers to shift on the fly from 4×2 to 4×4 high via a knob on the centre console.
The all-new Ford Ranger XL Double Cab offers a contemporary look and feel with features and comfort normally found in passenger cars. Bold new interior surfaces are finished with materials that will stand up to the demands of a workhorse while delivering a lasting quality appearance.
The B-pillar in the Double Cab has also been moved forward, delivering best-in-class rear leg room and knee clearance. Three adults can easily fit in the second row of the Double Cab while two six-footers can comfortably sit one behind the other.
Making full use of the spacious interior, the all-new Ford Ranger Double Cab offers more than 20 storage spaces in the cabin – more practical stowage than any competitor. Its deep centre console bin is the biggest in its class at 8.5 litres.
The glove box is large enough to accommodate a 16-inch laptop computer while door pockets can comfortably fit 1.5-litre water bottles. Ample storage for mobile phones and other small items can be found in the console and in areas within easy reach of the driver. Underneath the rear seats, a convenient hidden storage area for tools can be easily accessed.
The all-new Ford Ranger’s advanced safety protection begins with a reinforced passenger cell that utilises high-strength steel throughout. Utilising multiple load paths in the front, side, and rear of the vehicle, crash forces are directed away from occupants, providing high levels of protection in the event of a collision.

Other active safety features include:

Electronic Passive Anti-Theft (EPATS): Protects against drive-away theft through the use of an electronically-coded ignition key
Side Door Impact Beams: When a crash occurs, these door beams absorb the energy created during the collision
Collapsible Steering Column: Greatly reduces injury in front-end collisions
Electronic Shift On-The-Fly:  Allows the driver to choose between two different 4×4 modes, as well as two-wheel drive

Priced at RM79,888, the all-new Ford Ranger XL Double Cab will be available on 18 February, 2013. Booking is now open and can be made at all Ford showrooms nationwide. Deliveries for the first batch of orders are expected within that same month.  Additionally, the first 150 Ranger XL customers can take advantage of a special “Early Bird” incentive program – additional information is available at Ford dealerships.
Available colours for the all-new Ford Ranger XL Double include Cool White, Metropolitan Grey, Highlight Silver, and Black Mica. For more information, visit: www.ford.net.my.
