Ford Ranger Raptor: official pix…

The new Raptor is of course the performance version of the new generation Ford Ranger we saw a few months ago.

The version shown above is the “global” model. The US Ranger Raptor will come to the US later this year. (I guess right after the “regular” new Ranger.

This “mini-Raptor” is powered by a 3.0 Liter Turbo V6 that only makes 288HP. At least in Europe.

The US is supposed to get a much more powerful version with almost 400HP. Since it’s already producing 400HP in the Explorer ST.

Otherwise, I think this Raptor version could have been a little more aggressive-looking. 

Maybe the US will also get some visual changes too. 

On a related note, I am getting a GMC Canyon AT4 for a week. If anyone has any questions about it.

The Canyon/Colorado are scheduled to get new designs very soon. So this will be a kind of a “goodbye test drive”. Why not…
