Ford Ranger Raptor to be uncovered February 7

Portage is set to take the wraps off the Passage Officer Raptor on February 7 at a worldwide uncover in Bangkok, Thailand, and this is the way it's probably going to look.
These dispatched renderings are based off government agent photos got via CarAdvice and demonstrate a more strong, more extensive and forceful Officer that will gladly wear the F-150-inferred Raptor badge.
While we at first idea Portage would answer the petitions of double taxi ute fans and pack a turbocharged petroleum V6 under the hood of the Officer Raptor, it would seem that the Blue Oval camp has gone for the protected alternative with a littler limit diesel motor.
We comprehend that Portage will utilize another 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel motor that will be mated to the Passage and GM co-created ten-speed programmed gearbox with a low range exchange case.

That is probably going to mean the Raptor will miss the mark regarding the Volkswagen Amarok V6 diesel but then to-be-discharged Mercedes-Benz X-Class V6 diesel models for power and torque.
Ride height will also be jacked up with around 254mm of ground clearance, thanks to BF Goodrich 285/70 R17 All-Terrain TA tires.
Design changes are likely to include a unique grille, beefed-up wheel arches and an off-road oriented sloping front end.
Other changes are likely to include proximity key entry and push-button start, along with unique Raptor highlights throughout the cabin.
The Passage Officer was Australia's second top of the line auto in 2017, with that pattern anticipated that would proceed in 2018 as Portage acquaints moving changes with the Portage Officer line up.
