As the camera view pans to the right, an image emerged from the darkness that’s accompanied by a QR code. Ford also showed a glimpse of the car in question, which shows a familiar-looking grille design. From the looks of it, the Blue Oval company is teasing the upcoming global reveal of the all-new Ranger Raptor.
The QR code leads you to a teaser video on Ford Australia’s website, which is the country where the next-generation Ranger has been designed and engineered. The short video clip hints that the world premiere of the all-new Ford Ranger Raptor will be on February 2022.
There were no images shown in the teaser video but you can hear an engine revving with a matching exhaust note in the background.
2022 Ford Ranger Raptor global reveal date
Reports state that it could be the sound of a larger turbocharged V6 gasoline engine, which could be the same 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 found on the Ford Explorer ST that puts out 400 hp and 563 Nm of torque. There’s also a possibility that the all-new Ranger Raptor could be equipped with the Ford Bronco’s 2.7-liter twin-turbo V6 engine that produces 330 hp and 562 Nm.
To put things in perspective, the current Ford Ranger Raptor available in the Philippines is powered by a 2.0-liter bi-turbo diesel engine that generates 210 hp and 500 Nm of torque.
Ford has yet to give additional details about the world premiere of the all-new Ranger Raptor. For now, sit tight and wait for further announcement from the American automaker.
