V-Active by offering the technology across much of its core lineup.

This includes the Ranger XLT, Sport and Wildtrak, all of which are currently available with both ***-turbo 2.0-litre and single-turbo 3.0-litre V6 engines. It’s likely the PHEV drivetrain will only be available in dual-cab pickup guise.

On top of the three existing grades, a new Stormtrak variant will join the range as a PHEV-exclusive flagship.

This includes Stormtrak-specific Chill Grey paint, and unique 18-inch wheels, grille, wheel arch vents and decals.

It also gets some features from the Wildtrak’s $2000 Premium Pack – such as matrix LED *********** and a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen – plus the $2800 Flexible Rack System.

Ford is yet to announce pricing for the Ranger PHEV, though it’s expected to come at a premium compared to the V6 turbo-diesel versions of equivalent dual-cab pickup variants.

For context, the Ranger XLT tops out at $68,840 before on-road costs, the Sport V6 starts from $71,340 before on-road costs and the most expensive Wildtrak is $74,840 before on-road costs.

The Ford Ranger PHEV is powered by a turbocharged 2.3-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, with a 75kW electric motor sandwiched between it and the 10-speed automatic transmission.

Ford is targeting 45km of electric-only driving range, allowing owners to complete short journeys without burning any fuel.

Drivers will be able to switch between four drivetrain modes for the best-suited engine and electric motor usage: Auto EV, EV Now, EV Later and EV Charge.

All Ranger PHEVs retain the turbo-diesel model’s 3500kg towing capacity.

The electrified ute is also the only offering in the Ranger lineup to include external power outlets, consisting of a 2.3kW (2300W) outlet in the cabin and two 3.45kW (3450W) outlets in the bed.

All examples of the Ranger PHEV will be built in South ******* due to tooling constraints in Thailand, incurring a five per cent import duty as we don’t have a free-trade agreement with the nation.

*********** deliveries are due to begin in 2025.
