Ford has officially taken the wraps off its latest automotive innovation, the all-new Ranger Plug-in Hybrid pickup truck. However, the unveiling left us with more questions than answers, as the initial press release contained scant information about this exciting addition to Ford's lineup. Despite the shortage of details, we do know a few key pieces of information that hint at what's to come.

First and foremost, the name "Ranger Plug-in Hybrid" speaks volumes about the vehicle's primary feature: its hybrid powertrain with the ability to be charged through a plug. This electrifying new iteration of the Ranger is set to enter production in late 2024, with eager customers expected to receive their deliveries in early 2025.

In terms of the powertrain, Ford has disclosed that the Ranger Plug-in Hybrid will be equipped with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged petrol engine. This combustion engine will be complemented by an electric battery of unspecified capacity, offering an estimated 45 kilometers of all-electric driving range. While the precise details regarding the battery remain elusive, it's evident that Ford is making strides toward electrification.

One intriguing feature highlighted by Ford is the inclusion of 'Pro Power Onboard' capabilities. The Ranger PHEV will be outfitted with electrical outlets in both the cargo bed and cabin, enabling users to power tools and appliances at worksites or remote campsites. This feature is a testament to the truck's versatility and utility, catering to the needs of various professionals and outdoor enthusiasts.

Furthermore, Ford is aiming for a substantial towing capacity of 3,500 kilograms, which matches the capabilities of the rest of the Ranger lineup. Additionally, the Ranger Plug-in Hybrid is expected to deliver exceptional torque, potentially outperforming all other powertrains available for the Ranger and its sibling, the Volkswagen Amarok.

While we have confirmation of four-wheel drive capabilities, there are still unanswered questions about how the battery may impact the truck's cargo space and the charging time required for the electric component. Nevertheless, the mere existence of a Ranger Plug-in Hybrid is a significant step forward in the automotive industry's ongoing transition to electrification.

As automakers like Ford continue to explore sustainable and efficient powertrain options, the Ranger Plug-in Hybrid represents an exciting proposition for consumers who seek a blend of performance, versatility, and eco-friendliness in their pickup trucks. As more details emerge, it will be intriguing to see how this electrified Ranger performs in the competitive pickup truck market. Who knows, it might also end up here in the Philippines, with HEVs and EVs starting to take traction locally.
