2024 Ford Ranger Raptor Video Review

For the 2024 model year, the Ford Ranger was redesigned with plenty of improvements all around. Ford also added the Raptor badge and more capability to its mid-size truck. The Ranger Raptor can go head-to-head with other rock crawlers and baja racers. TTAC Creator Connie Peters, an automotive journalist based in Vancouver, explores the Ranger Raptor in her latest video.


What sets the Raptor apart from other Rangers is larger all-terrain tires, underbody protection with skid-plates, front and rear locking differentials, increased ground clearance, and a specially tuned suspension and steering rack.


The twin-turbo V6 is more powerful as well, making 405 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission and offers full-time four-wheel drive. When in Baja mode, the Ranger Raptor is ready for high speed off-pavement driving action.


Connie Peters is an automotive video creator and journalist covering all types of cars and trucks for the past 10 years in suburban Vancouver. You can watch all of her videos on her YouTube channel.


The TTAC Creators Series tells stories and amplifies creators from all corners of the car world, including culture, dealerships, collections, modified builds and more.

    I looked at one this past spring. The price tag was a major turn off. Too bad you can't get one with a diesel. The fuel economy is rather poor. The Bison ZR2/AT4X have similar mpg ratings and cost.

    Big money for one of these, but then again, leveling up your macho ain't cheap.

  • Lou_BC Not really.
  • FreedMike MOOOAAARRRRRR POWERRRR is always good, but what these models really need is a serious restyling job. Along with the Subaru Outback, these are my nominations for the ugliest car you can buy new.
  • FreedMike God, yes, the Focus was a loss. One of my favorite all time cars was my 2005 ST sedan, which was a terrific little car. The last gen was solid, too - as long as you bought one with a manual. I'll pour one out.
  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X If they ever brought the Focus name back, it will be in name only and attached to some lame EV.
  • Ajla My driver's ed vehicle was a Ford Focus wagon. I never really warmed up to the 2010-2019 version but I miss "cars" in general.
