Introducing the new Ford Ranger Wildtrak X

Ford is expanding its Ranger lineup with the off-road-focused Wildtrak X, arriving in Australian showrooms in the second half of the year as a go-anywhere special edition.

With a recommended Manufacturer List Price (MLP) of $75,990, Ranger Wildtrak X bridges the gap between the high-performance Ranger Raptor and the recreation-orientated Wildtrak and is designed for customers who want greater off-road capability and smart features that support their passion for adventure without compromising the Ranger’s impressive 3500kg towing capacity.

Elevating the Wildtrak X’s on- and off-road ability are core wheel and suspension improvements.

The Ranger Wildtrak X’s Bilstein Position-Sensitive Dampers not only allows drivers to go further off the beaten track, but also improves on-road cornering manners.

This is thanks to End Stop Control Valve (ESCV) technology within the Bilstein dampers.

The position-sensitive dampers allow for better fine-tuning and calibration so that the Wildtrak X’s on-road comfort matches its off-road performance.

With a monotube design and nitrogen-charged external reservoir, the Bilstein dampers have an increased tuning bandwidth that allow for dual driving characteristics.

The Wildtrak X will be the first Ranger 2.0L Bi-Turbo Diesel variant to feature the advanced Full-time 4WD system instead of the part-time ‘shift on the fly’ 4x4 system.
