2021 Ford Ranger Towing Capacity
When you drive a truck that’s built Ford tough—like the 2021 Ford Ranger—you’ll want to put it to work towing and hauling your equipment. The Ford Ranger offers a capable powertrain and responsive transmission, as well as helpful driver assistance that makes for easy navigation through the Ithaca, Elmira, and Cortland, NY, areas, with your trailer in tow.
To help drivers understand just how much this truck can tow, the team at Maguire Ford has outlined the key points of the 2021 Ford Ranger towing capacity.
2021 Ford Ranger Performance
What helps a truck tow and haul the heaviest loads? There’s nothing more effective than the combination of a powerful engine under the hood, a smooth 10-speed SelectShift® transmission, and a truly tough suspension. The 2021 Ford Ranger has all three of these boxes checked, making it a durable workhorse and a capable adventure companion.
Across all three available trim levels, the 2021 Ford Ranger features a standard 2.3L EcoBoost® engine, which features:
- 270 horsepower
- 310 lb-ft of torque
- Auto Start-Stop technology
While the Auto Start-Stop technology helps increase fuel economy, the powerful torque and horsepower give the 2021 Ranger the ability to tow up to 7,500 pounds when properly equipped. The durable frame and independent double A-arm front suspension also help give the Ranger an impressive 1,860-pound maximum payload.
2021 Ford Ranger Performance Features
To help maximize your towing and hauling capabilities, the 2021 Ford Ranger is available with several upgrades and standard features that make it easy to get the job done. For starters, every trim level of the 2021 Ranger comes with the option of an available 4x4 all-wheel drive.
There are also two available off-road packages—FX4 and Tremor Off-Road—that add elevated handling and suspension to bolster your Ford Ranger’s grip on any road.
These packages include helpful features that can keep you rolling in the toughest terrain. Increase your traction with available electronic-locking rear differential, or use the available Terrain Management System™ with these four selectable drive modes to better suit your present conditions:
- Normal
- Grass/Gravel/Snow
- Mud/Ruts
- Sand
2021 Ford Ranger Driver-Assistance Technology
When the sightlines get tough, or the road starts to wind, the driver-assistance features of the Ford Co-Pilot360™ system in the 2021 Ford Ranger will keep your mind at ease. Built to make your towing experience more enjoyable, Trailer Sway Control is standard across all three trims, keeping your trailer between the lines and standing tall.
Standard AdvanceTrac® with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™) kicks in when it senses that your vehicle is on rough roads and automatically increases your Ranger’s traction.
The 2021 Ranger also features available upgrades in driver assistance to keep your towing situation neat and streamlined, such as:
- Standard Rear View Camera
- Available Trail Control™ (contains Hill Descent Control™)
- Available Reverse Sensing System
- Available Front Sensing System
