2023 Ford Ranger Towing Capacity

Let’s Look at the 2023 Ford Ranger’s Towing Capacity
Impressive Towing Power Comes Standard
The 2023 Ford Ranger outperforms its competitors at every turn. Employing a powerful yet efficient EcoBoost® four cylinder engine, the Ranger touts a whopping 7,500 pounds of towing abilities, yet returns an EPA estimated 26 MPG on the highway.
There’s so much to explore when it comes to the 2023 Ford Ranger’s towing capacity, and we’re going to dive in and take a look! Let’s pop the hood and see why the Ranger outperforms its rivals, and offers you all of the capability and refinement you need while starting at just $26,400.
The EcoBoost® Engine Makes Huge Power
Under the hood of the 2023 Ranger is an exhilarating 2.3-liter EcoBoost four cylinder engine that delivers a whopping 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission, power is sent to the rear wheels to allow for 7,500 pounds of towing abilities or up to 1,860lbs of payload.
To put this into perspective, the Toyota Tacoma is one of the Ranger’s biggest competitors. It’s powered by a standard V6 engine that produces 278 horsepower, and even less torque. Even equipped with all of its towing bells and whistles, this mid-size pickup truck can only tow 6,800 pounds – 700 pounds less than the Colorado.
If you’re in need of all weather capability, or the need to conquer challenging terrain, you can opt for the available four wheel drive system. Featuring a two speed transfer case, you can switch between two and four wheel drive with the twist of a knob, while shift on the fly engine mapping lets your Ranger instantaneously adapt to your power demands.
Adding Intelligence to Every Journey
The 2022 Ford Ranger performance can also be attributed to some of its intelligent capabilities that allow you to make the most of its power.
An available Terrain Management System gives you four selectable drive modes that allow the Ranger to moderate torque according to the terrain you’re conquering. The available electronically locking rear differential ensures that you can maximize traction while the FX4® Off-Road Package gives you the confidence to push on even after the pavement ends.
In addition to the locking rear differential, this rugged package includes skid plates to protect your truck’s vital organs, off road suspension, and even Trail Control™.
