Ford Ranger Tremor borrows bits from Wildtrak X and Raptor
Ford Australia is expanding its pickup truck offering with the new 2025 Ranger Tremor, which is expected to hit the market around the late third quarter of this year.
What’s interesting about this model is that it is based on the Ranger Sport, but the Bilstein dampers, heavy-duty power steering, and full-time 4WD system are borrowed from the Wildtrak X.
This gives the Ranger Tremor a taller ride height by 26 mm. Its track width also increases by 30 mm, giving the pickup truck a rather menacing stance.
In addition to the suspension bits from the Wildtrak X, the Tremor also gains several features from the Raptor, such as the Rock Crawl drive mode, Trail Control system, and Trail Turn Assist.
Setting the Tremor further apart from the variant it’s based on are Tremor logos, a steel skid plate, forged aluminum side steps, a black sports bar, and 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in General Grabber AT3 all-terrain tyres.
There are six colour options available, namely, Aluminium, Blue Lightning, Conquer Grey, Meteor Grey, Shadow Black, and Arctic White.
Inside, you’ll find Tremor logos on the seats and rubber floor mats, as well as six auxiliary overhead switches that can be to support accessories like spotlights.
Like the Wildtrak X, the Tremor is powered by a 2.0-litre bi-turbo diesel engine producing 201 hp and 500 Nm of torque. The engine, which requires AdBlue additive, is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and a full-time 4WD system.
According to Ford Australia, only 1,150 units of the Ranger Tremor will be offered in the country. The starting price is AUD69,690 (RM212,689).
