Mazda launched a few weeks ago a teaser on its future pickup, the Mazda BT-50 2011. The new Ford Ranger, now global vehicle - delivered in 180 countries - and the same base, has followed suit and unveiled the same day for the show in Sydney 2010. Clearly differentiated, the new Mazda BT-50 and Ford Ranger took growth hormones and muscles, ultimately fading to the legendary Ford F-150. At Ford, it clearly draws large SUVs and pick-ups in the range, while Mazda's infuence aesthetic comes from the Mazda6 and the Mazda CX-9, mode "Sophisticated Beast" or "Sophisticated Beast." Unoriginal, it will be recognizable with its lights in almonds (Mazda), wide chrome grille (Ford) and with designs fortunately far enough away from each other

New Ford Ranger debuted at the Auto Show in Australia, becoming a master of innovation and focus on leadership in its class. The composition of Ranger entered the rear-view camera system, adaptive control of towing capacity, etc. The company also introduced three new engines, including two diesel variants of Ford Duratorq TDCi with 470 Nm of torque and a new six-speed gearbox. The flagship of the range model performs Ford Ranger XLT Double Cab, equipped with a 2.2-liter diesel Ford Duratorq TDCi, capacity of 148 hp and 375 Nm of torque. Inside, all of the dashboard are designed so that they can be easily replaced, so that in case of wear or breakage problems should arise. Ford Ranger 2012 will be available in three body styles, two different 4x2 and 4x4, with a few transmissions, two levels of ride height. Eventually the novelty will be sold in more than 180 countries.

According to the manufacturer, it will have three settings, bucket, traction 4x2 or 4x4 and five trim levels, which vary depending on where the 180 is offered. The design, for example, called "Force of the 21st Century" was thought of trying to please this broad range of clients. With regard to engines, the new Ranger will be available to the 2.2 Duratorq TDCi I4 and I5 3.2, both diesel power and still not revealed. The block will be the petrol Duratec I4 2.5, which can be configured for dual fuel application capable of running only on ethanol, and natural gas, reports the Brazilian subsidiary of Ford. The offer includes the manual transmission 5 or 6 gears, the latter being driven by short lever, and 6-speed automatic which has a device to reduce speed on a descent, helping to brake. Although further technical data, Ford said the crew cab version of the bucket will accommodate up to 1.21 meters cubic, and it measures 1.54 m long, 51 cm in height and 1.56 m wide.
