Performance and Capability
This is where the Super Duty badge earns its name. Under the hood sits a 3.0-liter V6 turbo diesel engine, tuned for serious grunt and long-haul dependability. Paired with a fortified cooling system and a full-time 4WD system, it handles heavy payloads, extreme heat, and rough terrain without hesitation.
Ford rates the truck at 4,500 kg of braked towing, 4,500 kg gross vehicle mass, and 8,000 kg gross combined mass. That translates to roughly 9,920 pounds of towing, 9,920 pounds of vehicle weight, and a total combined load capacity of about 17,640 pounds.
Six selectable drive modes fine-tune throttle and traction response. These include Normal, Eco, Tow/Haul, Mud/Ruts, Sand, and Rock Crawl. With just a turn of the dial, drivers can shift the truck's behavior to fit their environment.
The Ranger Super Duty also features a reinforced chassis, new heavy-duty axles, thicker driveshafts, and eight-stud wheel hubs with larger bolts that spread weight more effectively.
Technology and Safety Features
Inside the truck, the technology is just as hard-working. Pro Trailer Backup Assist lets you steer trailers more precisely. Onboard Scales and Smart Hitch features help you balance your load without guesswork. The SYNC 4 system integrates smartphones, navigation, and real-time vehicle data into one central hub.
