The 2025 Ford Ranger outperforms the Chevrolet Colorado in the areas Canadian drivers value most. At Trillium Ford, the all-new Ranger offers more horsepower, advanced features and practical solutions that make a real difference in daily driving and weekend adventures.

Unmatched Engine Performance :

Ford delivers the power advantage with superior engine options. The Ranger's available 2.7-litre EcoBoost V6 produces 315 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque, surpassing Colorado's top engine at 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft. The Ranger Raptor takes performance further with 405 horsepower and 430 lb-ft from its 3.0-litre twin-turbo EcoBoost V6. Ford's class-exclusive 10-speed automatic transmission provides wider gear ratios than Colorado's 8-speed, optimizing power delivery for towing, acceleration and fuel efficiency.

Advanced Towing Technology :

The Ranger transforms towing from challenge to confidence with exclusive features Colorado lacks. Class-exclusive Pro Trailer Backup Assist guides you precisely when reversing trailers, while the integrated trailer brake controller and 360-degree camera system enhance safety. Hitch Guidance and Hitch View simplify connections, and the FordPass App manages all towing functions from your smartphone. These technologies save time and reduce stress during every towing experience.

Superior Payload and Utility :

With 1,805 pounds maximum payload capacity versus Colorado's 1,684 pounds, Ranger carries more tools, equipment or gear. The available Integrated Box Side Step provides stable bed access without aftermarket additions. The 400-watt power inverter with in-bed outlet runs tools and equipment directly from your truck, while the tailgate features integrated ruler markings and clamp pockets for workbench functionality.

Leading Interior Technology :

Ranger's available 12.4-inch digital cluster and 12-inch centre touchscreen exceed Colorado's 11.3-inch displays in size and functionality. SYNC 4A with connected navigation delivers seamless smartphone integration through wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. FordPass Connect includes built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi and enables remote start, vehicle monitoring and over-the-air updates that keep your truck current throughout ownership.

Class-Leading Driver Assistance :

The Ranger offers 31 available driver assist features – the most in its class. Exclusive Active Park Assist 2.0 automatically handles parallel and perpendicular parking in tight Canadian city spaces. The 360-degree camera system provides complete surrounding awareness for navigating job sites or trails. These advanced systems make Ranger easier to drive in all conditions, delivering safety and convenience Colorado cannot match.
