Key Takeaways
- The Ford Ranger is set to return for 2026 with the same lineup featuring the XL, XLT, Lariat, and Raptor.
- We’d love to see more driver assistance technology and advanced safety features.
- As the Super Duty hits international markets, we wait for the US equivalent.
Will the 2026 Ford Ranger be redesigned?
Since the fourth-generation was launched last year, the Ford Ranger has been redesigned, refreshed, and updated inside and out. Although we’d love to report on the new 2026 Ford Ranger Super Duty, that model is not yet available in the USA.
So, while we wait, we look forward to some minor style updates, a potential software update, or adding the Ford Digital Experience or larger displays. We might see more driver assist technology available, such as Ford BlueCruise and Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0 or Assist+.
What features and technology will be in the 2026 Ford Ranger?
If the lineup remains the same as previous launches, we can expect the 2026 Ford Ranger to be available in four models with three engine options. While the Tremor model has been a popular addition to other Ford lineups, we have not yet seen specifications that indicate this for the Ford Ranger.
