Ranger Tremor available to order now

Following the success of the adventure-ready Ford Ranger Wildtrak X, Ford Australia introduces its latest off-road warrior with the new Ranger Tremor. Ranger Tremor is now available to order from Ford dealers across Australia, with up to 1150 units priced from $69,690 Manufacturer List Price1. Deliveries are expected to begin in September.

“Ranger Tremor builds on the success of the popular Wildtrak X, offering the same enhanced capabilities, making it ideal for tough Australian conditions,” said Ambrose Henderson, Ford Australia Marketing Director.

“The Tremor takes the highlights of Wildtrak X and combines them with the Sport series, resulting in a more budget-friendly off-road warrior that’s ready-to-go for the adventures that hard-working Aussies love.”

Ranger Tremor is powered by a 150kW/500Nm Euro 6 compliant2 2.0L Bi-Turbo diesel engine and 10-speed automatic transmission. Like Wildtrak X, this driveline requires the use of AdBlue® diesel exhaust fluid.

Tremor features a full-time four-wheel drive (4WD) system, including 4A mode, and benefits from the innovative Trail Turn Assist3 feature that allows the vehicle to manoeuvre around the tightest off-road turns with ease.

Off-roading capability is further enhanced with the inclusion of a Rock Crawl3 drive mode, and Ford’s Trail Control3 – like off-road cruise control.
