Manager, News
Cameron Rogers has worked in the automotive industry since 2013. He has tested and reviewed hundreds of vehicles over the course of his career. Today, he leads the news team in developing cutting-edge news articles, opinion pieces and sneak peeks at upcoming vehicles. Favorite cars that he's driven during his tenure at Edmunds include the 991-era Porsche 911 Turbo S, Rolls-Royce Ghost and several generations of Honda Odyssey (really).Pros
- Quick acceleration from powerful turbocharged engine
- Many available modern safety features
Cons
- Queasy ride quality over undulating pavement
- Limited in-cabin storage
- Not as capable off-road as rivals
- Infotainment system isn't the easiest to use
What's new
- Minor revisions to standard feature availability
- New FX2 off-road package
- Part of the fourth Ranger generation introduced for 2019
There was a lot of excitement surrounding the Ford Ranger's return to the American market last year. Unfortunately, that excitement turned to disappointment once we drove it. With an uncomfortable ride quality, limited interior storage space and awkward-to-use controls, the Ranger essentially brings up the rear of the midsize pickup truck market.
Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2020 Ford Ranger XL 4dr SuperCab SB (2.3L 4cyl Turbo 10A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.35 per gallon for regular unleaded in Virginia.

Avg. Compact Truck
This might seem odd considering Ford just introduced the truck. But the reality is this Ranger generation dates back nearly a decade in other markets. Ford did give it some new features as part of the U.S. debut, and the Ranger's turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivers quick acceleration and one of the highest tow ratings in the class. But the Ranger just seems old in most other aspects.
If you don't plan on hauling a lot or venturing off-road, the Honda Ridgeline is a great pick. It offers the utility of a pickup with the all-day driving comfort of an SUV. At the other hand of the spectrum is the Jeep Gladiator. It's pricey but can tackle rocky terrain like no other. The Toyota Tacoma's off-road prowess and remarkable resale value can't be ignored, and neither can the aging but still effective Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon twins.
Even the Nissan Frontier, basic as it is, stands as a more competitive pick simply because of its lower price. In short, there's no compelling reason to consider the Ford Ranger over any of its many superior rivals.

Edmunds Rating
Our VerdictThe Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.
The Ranger seems like a competitive truck based on its specs and features list. But its ride quality and interior come across as carryovers from several years back, not something cooked up new to expressly serve the needs of U.S.-market customers in a competitive midsize-truck field.
Rated for you by America's best test team.
Performance
7.0/10
How does the Ranger drive? The Ranger has one main trick: a stout turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder. It doesn't make the most horsepower in the class, but it's not far off the mark. The result is a gutsy engine that delivers plenty of punch as long as you're in Sport mode. In Edmunds testing, our 4WD crew-cab test truck covered 0-60 mph in 6.8 seconds, which is quick for a midsize truck.
Beyond that, though, the Ranger stumbles. The 10-speed automatic is great in other Fords, but in the Ranger normal mode is unresponsive and slow to downshift. The steering is too light and numb, the suspension is unsettled in corners with bumps, and the nose dives significantly with sudden braking.

Comfort
6.5/10
How comfortable is the Ranger? Aspects of the Ranger's ride may be a deal-breaker for some. Even mild road undulations generate very springy and bouncy ride motions. This too soft, underdamped feel seems to amplify the size of certain bumps you pass over, and more than one of our passengers actually got queasy.
On the other hand, the front seats are nicely shaped, comfortably padded, and able to accommodate a variety of body types. The crew cab's rear seatbacks are a little more upright than we'd like, but they are otherwise acceptable. Wind, tire and road noise is nicely controlled. We found it hard to use the climate system. The four vents cannot be shut off individually, and the system has numerous small control buttons that are hard to distinguish.

The four vents cannot be shut off individually, and the system has numerous small control buttons that are hard to distinguish.
Interior
7.0/10
How’s the interior? The Ranger's front seats are roomy and easy to get in and out of. The driver's seat is nicely placed to reach the truck's controls and see over the hood, but some of our drivers found it difficult to find an ideal reclining angle for the seat. The tall bedsides constrain rear visibility.
The drawback to the Ranger's interior comes from the irritating switchgear. The controls are grouped well from an overall point of view, but their operation falls short at the end-user level. The total lack of hard infotainment controls and the climate system's many small buttons are two examples.

Technology
8.0/10
How’s the tech? We like most of what the Ranger has to offer, especially if you buy an XLT or higher. Those come with multiple USB ports and the Sync 3 infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Also standard at this level is the Co-Pilot360 suite of driving aids, which includes forward collision warning, lane keeping assistance and a blind-spot monitor.
But the touchscreen could stand a few shortcut buttons, and folks without a smartphone and reliable data service will need to opt for the Technology package to get built-in navigation. The Sync 3 system's voice commands work reliably, and they respond to many natural language commands to access music, radio stations and certain navigation functions.

Towing and Storage
6.0/10
How are the towing and storage? The Ranger posts strong towing and payload capacities. There are six tie-downs in the bed, and we appreciate how the central locking system includes the tailgate. But the tall bedsides can hamper loading, and the undamped tailgate and steel bed are rather plain offerings.
The Ranger comes up short on interior storage. You can't easily store stuff underneath the rear seat, and the fact that it's a one-piece bench makes it impossible to seat three in the rear with a portion of the seat flipped up for cargo. A small center console and door cubbies mean there's not much small-item storage either.

Fuel Economy
8.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? On paper, the Ranger has the best gasoline fuel economy of the bunch. The EPA says you can expect 22 mpg in combined driving (20 city/24 highway) with 4WD. That's a little bit better than V6-equipped rival trucks. But past experience with other Ford turbocharged engines makes us wonder if this one will deliver that advantage in the real world. Our test truck's best observed tank was 20.9 mpg, but more investigation and seat time are needed.
Value
7.0/10
Is the Ranger a good value? The Ranger can end up getting a little expensive if you want a reasonably well-equipped model. That would be OK if we thought you got a lot in return, but the Ranger's interior, with its mediocre interior quality and dated design, doesn't help out here. Warranty coverage is in line with the rest of the class.
Wildcard
6.0/10
The Ranger doesn't necessarily live up to expectations. It posts some good marquee numbers, and it has a powerful engine. But these things can't really mask the fact that this is a hand-me-down truck that was new in 2011 in other world markets.
Which Ranger does Edmunds recommend?
If you decide the Ranger is the right truck for you, the XLT is undoubtedly the sweet spot between the sparsely equipped XL and the pricey Lariat. It comes with both of the XL's primary option packages, plus a handful of desirable luxury features. It also opens the doors to several packages that further add driver aids and passenger comfort features. There's nothing wrong with the base XL if you want to save some money, but we recommend adding the relatively inexpensive 101A package for its quality-of-life upgrades.
2020 Ford Ranger models
The 2020 Ford Ranger is a midsize pickup truck available with two cab configurations: extended cab (SuperCab) with a 6-foot bed or a crew cab (SuperCrew) with a 5-foot bed. There are also three trim levels: XL, XLT and Lariat. All Rangers are equipped with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine (270 hp, 310 lb-ft of torque) paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
The base Ranger XL is rather sparsely equipped, but there are some feature highlights. Standard equipment includes 16-inch steel wheels, a manually locking tailgate, automatic headlights, air conditioning, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and a four-speaker stereo system. Also included is forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking.
There are two core features packages for the XL. The 101A package adds a few desirable amenities, including cruise control, power mirrors, a larger central display screen and a six-speaker audio system. Buyers looking for modern driving aids will want to check out the Co-Pilot360 package, which gets you a blind-spot monitor with cross-traffic alert, lane keeping assist and pedestrian detection for the forward collision warning system.
Next up is the XLT, which includes the XL's 101A and Co-Pilot360 packages. It further adds extras such as alloy wheels, rear parking sensors, a 110-volt power outlet, keyless entry, dual-zone automatic climate control, an 8-inch touchscreen, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.
The XLT has three additional option packages: 301A, 302A and Technology. The first two get you a variety of extra convenience features while the Technology adds a navigation system and adaptive cruise control.
The 301A package consists of the auto-dimming mirror, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power-folding mirrors, and your choice of the Sport, Chrome or Black exterior appearance package. The 302A package includes the 301A fixings, plus remote engine start, a manual-sliding rear window, and power-adjustable and heated front seats. The Technology package requires at least the 301A package, and it adds front parking sensors, a navigation system and adaptive cruise control.
The top trim level for the Ranger is the Lariat, which includes almost all the features from the XLT's 302A package plus a few more upgrades such as LED headlights and leather upholstery. The Lariat's 501A package adds the Technology package plus remote engine start, automatic wipers, and a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system.
>Other notable packages for the Ranger include the FX2 and FX4 Off-Road packages and the Trailer Tow package.

Nice truck!
Joe Bike,06/15/2020
2020 Ford Ranger Lariat 4dr SuperCab 4WD SB (2.3L 4cyl Turbo 10A)
Always had F-150's till 2009 when I began driving a Lincoln MKS. Loved that care for 164,000 miles. Decided to go back to a truck. Didn't want to give up mileage so looked at the Ranger. The Lariat trim level made me feel like I was back in the Lincoln. (Only thing missing is ventilated front seats, which I miss living in Florida) I have to admit, I was not prepared for the ride … difference from the MKS. My wife reminds me it's a truck. The Off-road suspension package makes the ride stiffer than my friend's two wheel drive Ranger XLT. I went with the 4 x 4 because it allows flat (4 wheels down) towing behind my motorhome. The dealer had no 4 x 4's without the off road suspension package available. After three months, I'm used to the ride. I am amazed by the incredibly quick pick up from the 4 cylinder. The truck sounds futuristic because when it's being driven, you can hear the whir of the turbo-chargers. The truck handles well and has a surprisingly tight turning radius. I have pulled a 6700 lb trailer and the trailer package functions admirably, although I'm not sure I'd want to pull a trailer of that weight without electric trailer brakes. The pearl colored paint is awesome looking and reflects the Florida sun (and heat) well. The seats are comfortable, the ride is quiet, and the creature comforts abound. The 10 speed automatic transmission works flawlessly. Best highway mileage so far has been 25.6 mpg. Average mileage 19.7 mpg. Very pleased with the truck so far. Stereo system is only "good". Can't say "excellent." It would be nice if the Supercab was offered with a 6' bed.

Ford never disappoints with their trucks!
Canadian Ford Fan,10/13/2020
2020 Ford Ranger XLT 4dr SuperCab 4WD SB (2.3L 4cyl Turbo 10A)
I"ve been a lifelong Ford guy and this review might sound biased but after spending six years of owning a 2014 F-150 XLT 4x4 Supercab and having my personal needs change especially within the past couple of years I had to downsize to something smaller but still needed a truck. I was thinking of going the SUV route with the new Escapes but after my wife talked me out of getting one we did … some networking through some family and friends of ours and wound up going with a 2020 Ranger XLT Supercab 4x4. After taking the truck for a test drive I have to say I was far more than impressed with the 2.3L EcoBoost engine (actually swore to God that I was driving a Mustang) and I have to say this truck can easily keep up with the traffic on the highway without any sweat, can zip up to 100 km/h in just over 6 seconds, has no problem with keeping up with the traffic flow at around 110-120 km/h. I have the CoPilot 360 which so far helps out but I'm disappointed to find out that beside a flashing indicator on the mirrors there's no chime if you change lanes indicating there's a vehicle in the lane you want to go into. However the rear camera is very handy, the 8-inch infotainment system is good but I feel that Sync could do a bit of a revamp to make the onscreen controls easier. Apple CarPlay is a blast to use but I wish there was a way to use the Sync voice commands while using CarPlay, mind you I did come from an older version of Sync so I probably still have some figuring out to do. Nevertheless even with the 6 speaker system the stereo sounds fantastic but could use a bump in amplification. The ride is actually good, handling is not bad. The seats do provide decent support and the cab has more than enough front legroom. The back seat is actually roomy for the average sized person but not if you're on a long road trip however its good for tossing a couple of suitcases for a weekend getaway. My biggest complaint is the position of the cupholders- I recommend taking your own travel mug for coffee on long trips as I'm dreading the moment that a lid will pop off my paper cup of Starbucks venti or a Tim Horton's dark roast! I haven't had a chance to try out the truck in 4 wheel drive yet as I write this but with our Canadian winters I can imagine this truck will do good. As for the engine it's really happy if you use a very good regular grade of gasoline from a gas station that's 'Top Tier' certified otherwise make sure you fill it up with premium once in a while to keep things with the engine in check.

Awesome little truck!
A Rochester Ford fan for life!,04/20/2020
2020 Ford Ranger XL 4dr SuperCab 4WD SB (2.3L 4cyl Turbo 10A)
I'm very impressed with the new Rangers! I've always had at least a half ton pickup over the years.
When I bought a new Harley, I didn't want a big payment on a truck. The salesman asked, would you like a new Ranger. Initially I thought, too small. After test driving one I bought it! No regrets!! Plenty of power and comfort. Love the 6 ft. bed too. Honestly more than enough for what I … need and I'm impressed with the towing ability!

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Ford Ranger?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
