It's official the Ranger will get a PHEV next year! No waiting until 2025 like Ford originally said which will be great. While I love my new Tremor I'm really interested to see this new PHEV Ranger. I wouldn't buy the first year but by the second or even third I might be ready for one depending on the distance.

The report claims that the Ford Ranger PHEV is scheduled to launch at some point in 2024 as part of that same model yearâs updates, meaning that we wonât have to wait much longer to see the electrified pickup. Ford Australia didnât confirm this report, but previously stated that the new Ranger was built specifically with electrification in mind, meaning that the automaker clearly planned on offering some sort of hybrid, PHEV, or EV in its life cycle.
As for what that powertrain might look like, this report notes that the Ranger PHEV will utilize the existing Ford 2.3L I-4 EcoBoost base engine, paired with one or more electric motors. This would represent a first in terms of that particular combination, as FoMoCo doesnât currently sell any PHEV with the 2.3L EcoBoost, though as one might imagine, specifics such as output, electric-only driving range, and other pertinent info is currently unknown.
