When you need a reliable pickup that delivers exceptional handling on and off-road and powerful engine performance, the 2023 Ford Ranger should be at the top of your list. This versatile truck has plenty of impressive things to offer, from its sophisticated technology to its many comfortable seating options, and the following five features serve as perfect examples.

1. A Fuel-Efficient 277-HP Engine

One of the more obvious highlights you’ll notice with this edition is its muscular 2.7-liter engine. Churning out 277 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, this engine is more than capable of taking you the extra mile by also providing excellent fuel efficiency with up to 26 MPG in estimated highway mileage. It’s also able to tow up to 7,500 pounds when paired with the optional Trailer Tow Package, making work with trailers and recreational outings with campers a breeze.

2. Adaptive High-Beam Headlamps

When it comes to driver-assist features, there are plenty of hi-tech systems to admire, but the Auto High-Beam Headlamps stand out by providing both safety and convenience. If lighting levels are constantly changing on the road as you’re driving, these headlamps can automatically adjust without you having to do anything, and they can even detect other vehicles approaching while switching from your high beams to low beams to prevent distractions for other drivers.

3. Entertainment and Navigation

Imagine a system that can combine audible navigation instructions with hands-free calling and multimedia playback, and you have an idea of just some of the many functions that the SYNC 3 infotainment system has to offer. Not only can you control this feature using either its full-color touchscreen or voice commands, but you can also connect both Apple and Android devices to it wirelessly with its Bluetooth capabilities.

4. A Terrain Management System

While this edition offers an available four-wheel drive system that’s more than capable of conquering off-road surroundings, there’s also the Terrain Management System, a multimode feature that puts more control at your fingertips. When encountering sand, snow, mud, or other tough terrains, you can push a button to instantly optimize the truck to easily tackle any of these challenges.

5. A Blind Spot Awareness System

While on multi-lane roads and highways, vehicles can occasionally hide in your blind spots, which is why the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) is offered with this edition to make lane changes safer. When another vehicle is detected nearby on either side of the Ranger, this system will let you know, and best of all, it can do the same for any trailer you’re pulling as well with its advanced trailer coverage.

While the five features covered here are impressive in their own rights, they’re simply a preview of everything else that this versatile pickup has to offer. To test-drive the 2023 Ranger and see it in action for yourself, contact us today at Bob Maxey Ford in Detroit.
