2.3L ECOBOOST WITH BEST-IN-CLASS GAS TORQUE

Raw torque rules when you're taking on the rugged demands of off-road terrain. And the new Ford Ranger beats all other gas-powered pickups in its class with a torque rating of 310 lb.-ft. The 270 horses under the hood are mighty impressive too. The 2.3L EcoBoost is engineered with a twin-scroll turbocharger that extracts exhaust gas from pairs of cylinders in alternating sequence, maximizing pulse energy to the turbine wheel for responsiveness on demand with virtually no lag.

BEST-IN-CLASS EPA-ESTIMATED GAS MPG

For all the best-in-class gas torque it generates, the all-new Ford Ranger is the most fuel-efficient gas-powered midsize pickup in America. The 2.3L EcoBoost features the direct-injection (DI) system. With DI, gas is injected at high pressure directly into the combustion chamber in a very precise measure. The engine also features Auto Start-Stop Technology. When you come to a stop, the engine shuts off to save fuel and restarts immediately when the brake is released. Designed smart for truck applications, auto start-stop deactivates when it wouldn't be needed, such as when you're towing a trailer or running in four-wheel drive.
