Arguably the most desirable Pick up truck on sale in Malaysia, the Ford Ranger Raptor X Special Edition is now available in True Red.

What’s so great about the Raptor?

Ranger Wildtrak undercarriage

Its a highly modded version of the Ford Ranger, with most of the mods taking place under the skin of the car. The entire suspension system, track width and geometry used has been custom made for this specific car. Just look at these pictures which shows the rear end of the Raptor and the regular Wildtrak
And the icing of the cake is the Fox Racing suspension. Basically the closest thing you can get to a Rally spec damper on a road car. And giving this chassis setup a good workout is a twin turbo diesel engine putting out 210bhp and 500Nm, via a 10 speed gearbox.

A race only Truck for RM200k?

Actually its a lot more refined than your average truck. For this special edition there are 360 degree cameras, a Kenwood Digital Video Recorder, special edition carpet mat and Raptor X decals.


This is on top of the 6 driving modes, Autonomous Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning and Assist.

How much is it?

The Raptor X Special Edition retails at RM216, 888 on the road. It comes with a 5 year / 160,000km Manufacturers warranty.
Its the only such car in the market, with this level of performance. For a utility vehicle that can perform like an off-road racer, it makes somewhat of a sense for its price tag. But is it really worth it? We can only tell once we get behind the wheel of one.
