The bakkie and its SUV counterpart on display at this week's NAMPO agricultural exhibition
17 May 2022 - 11:36The new-generation Ford Ranger bakkie and its SUV counterpart, the Everest, made their first public appearance in SA this week.
The duo boast bold new looks, improved capabilities and the latest technology, and here is a closer look at both vehicles:The latest Ranger has an arresting new look inspired by the F-Series Ford bakkies sold in the US, comprising a bold new front end with large C-clamp headlamps linked together by a chunky horizontal grille bar.
A new exterior zone lighting system gives 360° lighting around the bakkie, a handy feature for camping. Transmission duties are to be handled either by a six-speed automatic or a 10-speed SelectShift auto. The seven-seater Everest features the same butched-up frontal styling as the Ranger bakkie.
