What's in the Ford Ranger Lineup?
The 2026 Ford Ranger is available in four trims: XL, XLT, Lariat, and Raptor, each built around a crew cab body with a 5-foot bed. Every configuration comes standard with a turbocharged EcoBoost® engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission, giving you a solid foundation no matter which direction you go.
The XL and XLT handle everyday driving along the coast, from hauling gear down Highway 1 to managing weekend projects with up to 7,500 lbs. of towing capacity. Step up to the Lariat for heated ActiveX®-trimmed front seats, a heated steering wheel, and a Bang & Olufsen® sound system that makes those drives through the valley a whole lot better.
The Raptor sits at the top of the range with a wider track, FOX™ Racing shocks, and seven selectable drive modes, including Baja mode for high-speed off-road terrain near Pinnacles or the backcountry trails east of the bay.
Browsing online lets you filter by trim, drivetrain, color, and available packages before stepping onto the lot.

The standard 2.3L EcoBoost® four-cylinder produces 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic and available four-wheel drive. For drivers who need more power, the available 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 bumps output to 315 HP and 400 lb-ft of torque, while the Raptor's 3.0L EcoBoost® V6 delivers a full 405 HP and 430 lb-ft.*

On the road, that balance of power and efficiency means fewer fuel stops on long stretches of Highway 101 and enough low-end torque to handle steep grades through the mountains. The available FX4® Off-Road Package adds skid plates, off-road-tuned shocks, and an electronic-locking rear differential for anyone heading past the pavement.
Inside, Ford's SYNC® 4 system keeps things connected with wireless Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and available navigation.
