Coming in 2025 and will that be October or November 2025?
Ford seeking to gauge interest 18 months to 2 years out seems a little strange, does that mean if there’s not much actual interest, Ford will silently cancel? |

I checked out most of the other PHEVs available in Australia and seems the range varies from 30km to 76km with a few around the 50 mark. So 45 isn’t amazing but it’s not bad either. |

I reckon the PHEV will be better than the V6D option. Curious to see the difference in torque figures as well as fuel economy when loaded up to payload and towing capacity - PHEV vs V6D. I'm over diesel engines in light vehicles, WOFTAM. Should be left to pumps, power generation, ships and heavy commercial vehicles only, you don't need to waste your time putting up with diesel eccentricity with <4500KG GVM with what forced induction has done to unleaded engines in the past 15 years.

ie/ sends some of that ICE power back into the batteries as well as regen down hills and braking, which weight of this vehicle, should help. Unless, the suits just pulled software features out due to $$? I'm Looking forward to see it. |

I think the 2.3 EB PHEV is aimed at 4x4 crew cab Ranger as a diesel alternative, Ford is looking if Buyer will move away from diesel only Ranger (and Everest?) I don’t think the 2.0 diesel is selling well, this might be a way of replacing it… Quote:

I think the case for petrol hybrids replacing diesels is strong, it will be good to see more options this way as not everyone needs or wants a diesel. Last edited by jpd80; 23-09-2023 at 08:09 AM. |
