With the 2025 Ford Ranger rolling out, you may have asked yourself “What’s different in the 2025 Ford Ranger?” That's what we're here to look at, as well as seeing how it compares to last year's Ranger. Will either of these trucks be right for you? Here are some things to keep in mind when going to the lot to get a new Ranger.
Key Takeaways:
- Both the 2024, and 2025 are relatively the same, only difference is colors with both year models having ones unique to them, and an appearance package that adds more black to the truck.
- If you're wanting the best trim for the price, then the XLT is what you want for both years. Coming with some great features without going too high up in price.
- The price for both trims stay within a few hundred of each other, making it easy to get what you want.
Will there be a 2025 Ford Ranger?
Yes, there will be a 2025 Ford Ranger.
For 2025, the Ford Ranger comes with some new colors. Other than that, the only other change to the lineup is a black appearance package, with everything else carrying over from the year before.
How much is a 2025 Ford Ranger?
The 2025 Ford Ranger starts at $33,080.
The Ranger comes in 4 trims for you to pick from, the prices are:
- XL starting at $33,080
- XLT starting at $36,110
- Lariat starting at $43,880
- Raptor starting at $55,820
The 2024 Ranger comes with the same trims, just at slightly lower prices. The prices you can find are:
- XL starting at $32,820
- XLT starting at $36,260
- Lariat starting at $43,780
- Raptor starting at $55,720
Thanks to the new model being mostly a carryover, the recommended trim remains the same as well. The trim that you should consider as noted by Car and Driver is the XLT.
This is because it “offers a reasonable list of features for less.” Some of the features include LED exterior lighting, 17-inch aluminum wheels, power-folding side-view mirrors, in-dash navigation, a wireless smartphone charging pad, and a power outlet inside the truck bed.
The Ranger also comes with Ford's Co-Pilot360 suite of driver-assistance features, which includes blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, and lane-keeping assist. Car and Driver finishes up the recommendation by stating that they'd “consider the Technology package, which adds adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree camera system, and front parking sensors.”
They note that while the Lariat is “undeniably plush” but the $43,000 price tag makes it closer in price to full-size pickups, which isn't ideal if you're looking for mid-size prices.
