2025 Ford Ranger Sport V6 review
Ford's best-seller still justifies its position as an Aussie favourite, especially in Sport V6 form, but more rivals are signing up every day.

Max Davies
Marketplace Journalist
Max Davies drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Buttery V6 diesel
- Robust tech inside and out
- Still indisputably the non-PHEV ute benchmark
Misses
- There are more logical Rangers at better prices
- Generally expensive compared to rivals
- No tonneau cover as standard

James Wong drove this car and these were their findings:
Hits
- Fast and furious
- PHEV tech adds new dimension
- Masks added weight impressively well
Misses
- Still a big ol' thang
- Could do with more feel and noise
- Need to wait longer for the M5 Touring
Colours Available
Ford is giving its gen-two Ranger and Ranger Raptor a handful of colours including some brilliant bright colours for the alter, including one exclusive to the flagship ute.
However, if you like 50 shades of grey – or, in this case, three – you’ll still have some options that’ll suit.
The colour palette comprises the following:
- Absolute Black
- Aluminium
- Arctic White
- Blue Lightning
- Meteor Grey
- Sedona Orange
- Luxe Yellow (Wildtrak only)
- Code Orange (Raptor only)
- Conquer Grey (Raptor only)
