2023 Ranger Interior

The ambiance of the Ranger depends on the trim. In base models, you get standard cloth or optional vinyl upholstery, while top-spec models come with genuine leather. Unfortunately, there is one thing they all have in common: Hard plastics throughout the interior. Unfortunately, this is one thing Ford didn't focus on while preparing the Ranger for America. The base model is particularly bleak. It doesn't have an infotainment system and its radio display is tiny, while its interior is fifty shades of black. Equipment levels are adequate on the XLT and Lariat trims, however. The Ranger may not be as car-like as its rivals in this department, but it does at least feel as if it will last a long time.

Seating and Interior Space

The SuperCab and SuperCrew fit four and five people, respectively. The seats are nothing special, but they do provide ample support. The cabin feels big for a mid-size pickup, and all but the tallest passengers should be able to sit comfortably on extended journeys. Front legroom in the SuperCab is 43.1 inches, while rear legroom is a cramped 30.4 inches. The SuperCrew has the same front legroom as the SuperCab, but the rear legroom is increased to an acceptable 34.5 inches. Headroom in the front is the same for both models (39.8 inches), while rear headroom in the SuperCab is a tight 35.9 inches and an ample 38.3 inches in the SuperCrew. In short, the SuperCab's rear is no place to be for adults.

Visibility is good, but the bed has a tendency to obscure smaller cars. Luckily, the Ranger has a backup camera and the two upper trims have blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert, which is a must if you want to daily a Ranger in the city. These features are optional on the XL.

Interior Colors and Materials

The base XL has Ebony (black) cloth as standard. More practical vinyl upholstery or smarter premium cloth seats (the latter as part of the $2,230 XL 101A package) are available for this model. The XLT comes standard with premium cloth in either Ebony or a beige Medium Stone. The Lariat also has access to Ebony or Medium Stone interior color schemes, but the SuperCab gets leather upholstery for the front seats only and vinyl in the rear, while the SuperCrew gets leather-upholstered rear outboard seats. The Lariat also includes a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shifter. The Tremor Off-Road package is available on the XLT and Lariat SuperCrew 4x4 models and adds Miko Suede seat inserts, red Tremor badging on the front seatbacks, and various dark interior accents.

2023 Ranger Trunk and Cargo Space

新管理员是一个实际的选择,即使你opt for the SuperCrew with the smaller, five-foot bed. The bed on this particular model is suitable for 43.3 cubic feet. You can load a pair of dirt bikes if you fold the tailgate down. The longer six-foot bed offers more practicality (51.8 cubes) and is the model to go for if you're after a workhorse rather than a leisure vehicle. Whichever model you choose, the Ranger has enough space for the adventurous. The SuperCab 4x2 has the best payload figure of 1,905 lbs.

The Ranger's cabin lacks storage options, so packing space is limited. The center console and door bins are on the small side, but you do at least get cupholders for four people and a locking glovebox. The SuperCrew has handy storage compartments under its rear seats.

2023 Ranger Infotainment and Features

Features

The Ranger XL is obviously a workhorse, but Ford has made it easier to kit it out with the basic necessities. There's an STX Special Edition package for a total outlay of $3,225 on the base SuperCab, because it also requires the XL 101A package, adding features like dual-zone automatic climate control, Sync infotainment, cruise control, and 17-inch alloys.

Standard features on the base model include auto halogen headlights, a rearview camera, an eight-way manually-adjustable driver's seat, and a 2.3-inch productivity screen. On the safety side, forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking are standard. Blind-spot monitoring and lane-keep assist are optional. The higher trims add items such as dual-zone climate control, Ford's Co-Pilot 360 safety technology, leather upholstery, and power/heated front seats.

Infotainment

The base XL comes with a tiny 3.5-inch radio display surrounded by quick-access buttons. It's okay, but once you use the rearview camera, you realize how hopeless it is. It's equipped with four speakers, but you can upgrade it to a six-speaker system. At least even this model enjoys a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, a USB port, and Bluetooth connectivity.

The XLT and Lariat have an eight-inch touchscreen interface, which not only looks better but is easier to operate as well (and this is optional on the XL). It runs the Ford Sync 3 operating system, which is a generation behind the latest Ford products. Even so, it still supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and SiriusXM. At this level, the sound system gains an additional two speakers and another USB port is added as well. Navigation is available as an optional extra. A ten-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system is optional, but only on the Lariat SuperCrew.
