The New Ford Ranger PHEV 2025: Compatibility with MAXLINER’s Hardtop

The automotive landscape is experiencing a shift, with a significant global acceleration towards hybrid and electric vehicles (EVs). It's a fundamental re-engineering of transportation driven by environmental awareness, stringent emission regulations, and continuous advancements in battery technology.

Today, the Ford Ranger PHEV 2025 is leading the charge into an electrified future. As Europe's first plug-in hybrid pickup truck, this groundbreaking vehicle combines the rugged capability that users demand with the eco-friendly efficiency that modern times require.

Ford Ranger PHEV: Dawn of Electric Pickup Power

The Ford Ranger PHEV represents more than just another vehicle launch—it's a paradigm shift for the pickup truck market. With Europe’s increasingly stringent emissions regulations and growing environmental consciousness, the timing couldn't be more perfect. This innovative hybrid pickup delivers the best of both worlds: zero-emission city driving and the uncompromising work capability that has made the Ford Ranger Europe's best-selling pickup for ten consecutive years.

What makes this development particularly exciting for German customers is the Ford Ranger PHEV availability (Ford Ranger PHEV bestellbar) through authorized dealerships across the country. The transition to electrified pickup trucks is happening right now, and both German and European truck enthusiasts are at the forefront of this revolution.

Ford Ranger PHEV Technical Data

The Ford Ranger PHEV technical data (Ford Ranger PHEV technische daten) reveals an engineering masterpiece that doesn't compromise on performance. At the heart of this hybrid system lies a sophisticated powertrain combining Ford's proven 2.3-liter EcoBoost petrol engine with a powerful 75 kW electric motor and an 11.8 kWh lithium-ion battery.

The numbers speak for themselves: 281 PS total power output and an impressive 697 Nm of torque—the highest ever achieved in any production Ranger model. This substantial torque advantage translates to effortless acceleration, superior towing capability up to 3,500 kg, and enhanced off-road performance that off-road adventures will appreciate.

The Ford Ranger PHEV battery size has been carefully engineered to provide up to 43 kilometers of pure electric driving range—more than sufficient for most urban commutes and city deliveries. This electric-only capability means you can navigate through Germany's environmental zones with zero tailpipe emissions, while still having the flexibility of extended range when needed.

Here is the summary of Ford Ranger PHEV key specifications:s

  • Engine: 2.3-liter turbocharged petrol four-cylinder with 75kW electric motor

  • Battery Capacity: 11.8kWh (net) lithium-ion

  • Combined Power: 207kW

  • Combined Torque: 697Nm

  • Transmission: 10-speed automatic

  • Drivetrain: Selectable four-wheel drive with low-range transfer case

  • Electric Range (WLTP): 49km

  • Fuel Consumption (claimed): 2.9L/100km

  • Towing Capacity (braked): 3,500kg

Initial Ford Ranger PHEV testing (Ford Ranger PHEV test) results from European automotive journalists have been overwhelmingly positive. The integration of electric and petrol power provides smooth acceleration, while the advanced e-4WD system automatically distributes torque to all four wheels for optimal traction in challenging conditions.

The selectable terrain management system offers multiple driving modes, including Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, Tow/Haul, Mud/Ruts, and Sand modes. This versatility makes the Ranger PHEV equally capable on German autobahns, in Bavarian mountain terrain, or navigating construction sites.

Ford Ranger PHEV 2025 Fuel Economy & CO2 Emissions

One of the most compelling aspects for buyers is the Ford Ranger PHEV fuel consumption (Ford Ranger PHEV verbrauch). The hybrid system optimizes efficiency by seamlessly switching between electric, hybrid, and petrol-only modes depending on driving conditions and battery charge levels.

The Ford Ranger PHEV CO2 emissions are significantly reduced compared to traditional diesel pickups, making it compliant with the EU’s stringent environmental regulations. Ford's projections suggest that business customers could save approximately €850 annually compared to the Ranger 3.0-liter V6 turbodiesel when charging daily using business electricity tariffs and driving 80 kilometers per day.

The charging infrastructure in Germany continues to expand rapidly, and the Ranger PHEV's battery can be fully charged in less than four hours using a standard single-phase 16-amp charger. This practicality ensures that the vehicle fits seamlessly into German daily routines.
