2024 Ranger

[85_Ranger4x4]

I can see a remote chance that the 2.3L in the 2024 Ranger could be available with the same 7-speed manual as in the Bronco. If by some slim chance the Ranger is also available with the 2.7L V6 I doubt it would get the the manual trans as it is not an option on the 2.7L Bronco.
I also seriously doubt the North American version will get a Diesel option. For international markets I believe the only Ranger that doesn't get a Diesel as the only choice is the Raptor.
The biggest problem I see with Ranger options is that the Bronco is always going to be a higher priority for Ford than the Ranger which means just getting them to build a basic Ranger is going to be a challenge. Even if an option is available on the Ranger that will just delay it being built even further.

The truck's two best trim levels, the Base and Everglades, are also on hold.

Interesting review of the aussie version.
