Ford Ranger

This week, away from the glitz and glamour of both the Shanghai and New York International Auto Shows, will be the 2011 Commercial Vehicle Show held in Birmingham, UK.

Nether the less, Ford has taken the opportunity to use the show to launch the all-new Ranger truck. New from the ground up, the Ranger is said to retain its 'ruggedness' but now with added performance and economy.

The design of the Ranger is apparently '21st Century Tough' which equates to a more toned and muscular appearance, in keeping with the increased performance. Larger headlamps and mirrors increase the Rangers road presence, whilst the larger wheels add to the visual impact whilst also aiding ground clearance.

Inside the Ranger still focuses on the use of space and 'car-like' comfort. Boasting higher quality materials, such as vinyl, cloth or leather seats, dependant on model, the Ranger is said to stand up to the demands of the 'workhorse' physique.
