In our previous report, Ford conducted an off-road run with the Ranger, Everest, and Ranger Raptor. During the run, the next-gen models were equipped with what are assumed to be ARB 4x4 off-road accessories at that time. These additions enhanced their rugged and off-road appeal despite being wrapped in camouflage.
Ford Ranger Camping
Now that the next-gen Ford Ranger pickup truck has finally been unveiled, the Blue Oval company also uncovered the ARB 4x4 off-road accessories for those who are looking for a more refined appearance. There are three inspirations Ford introduced to suit different lifestyles, namely Camping, Touring, and Off-road.
As the name suggests, the Ford Ranger with the Camping inspiration can be installed with a bed tent where individuals can take a rest while on an outdoor adventure. The Touring inspiration is equipped with an ARB bull bar that is integrated with lights so off-roading at night shouldn’t be much of an issue.
Ford Ranger Touring
Moving to the Off-road inspiration, the next-Ford Ranger is installed with an ARB bullbar, driving lights, and a red-trimmed skid plate. It also gets a snorkel on the side of the engine bay so the powertrain won’t get wet when soaring through waters. These accessories offer both aesthetic and performance enhancements.
Ford Ranger Off-Road
ARB is an Australian company that recently partnered with Ford. It is responsible for producing off-road accessories for Ford vehicles. According to the American automaker, more inspiration photos for the 2022 Ford Ranger will be revealed soon.
As of this writing, Ford Philippines hasn’t announced when will it bring the next-gen Ranger to the local lineup. However, Ford PH recently launched the F-150 diesel.
