100 years of Ford
What is even more remarkable is that the Ford truck is celebrating 100 years of being an iconic
pickup truck in the automotive industry when history was carved way back on 29 July, 1917!

“It’s an amazing test of time for Ford trucks as they celebrate a century of leadership,
innovation, capability and durability for their iconic trucks,” said Syed Ahmad Muzri Syed Faiz,
Managing Director, Sime Darby Auto Connexion, adding that SDAC is extremely proud and
honoured to be a part of Ford truck’s 100-year celebration.

“We hope more Malaysians will take this limited opportunity to make a smart choice to book and
drive home this powerful truck,” he said

Built Capable & Tested to The Extreme
The Ranger’s cutting-edge technologies that enable solutions to everyday challenges makes it
stand apart from traditional pickup trucks. To prove this, the Ranger was pushed beyond
boundaries with extreme tests to showcase its toughness in a series of videos - Science of
Trucks at Ford Malaysia’s YouTube channel or via http://www.sdacford.com.my/models/trucksvans/ranger/overview.

“The Ranger is able to handle everything thrown at it with its wide array of smart technologies.
Today’s Ranger builds on strengths that lifelong customers have come to love, and then taking
them to a whole new level,” he added.

The videos document the Ranger’s Towing Capability, Frame and Chassis strengths that were
put to the test by strapping 600 kg of mass and spun at 4.75Gs of opposing forces. Adaptive
Load Control, Electronic Stability Control and Rollover Mitigation capabilities, meanwhile, were
tested by dropping a load of bricks and an ATV into the back of a moving Ranger.

Smart technologies such as Electronic Stability Control (ESC) with Traction Control in the
Ranger helps to control understeering and oversteering by correcting the driving line through a
combination of brake application to the appropriate wheel and a reduction in engine torque.
Adaptive Load Control, which takes into consideration the loading condition of the vehicle and
ensures ESC is then applied accordingly.

On top of these features is the Rollover Mitigation system to identify a potentially dangerous
driving situation and activate the ESC to restore stability. Hill Launch Assist and Hill Descent
Control help to pull away on steep inclines and stay in control on steep downhill grades easily.

Built Smart
The high performance WildTrak variant features SYNC TM 3, the latest Ford in-car connectivity
system that boasts an eight-inch colour touchscreen to operate phone, entertainment and
climate control using a simple voice command system. The system currently supports Android
Auto TM and Apple CarPlay.

Built Safe
The Ranger WildTrak variant features Adaptive Cruise Control, an intelligent feature that uses
radar sensors to detect traffic ahead, and automatically adjusts the cruise control speed to
maintain a safe distance from the car in front. The Collision Warning Alert system detects the
potential of a collision up ahead and it will flash a red warning signal on your windscreen and
pre-charge your brakes, ready to stop quickly.

The Ranger’s smart and safety features have been awarded NCAP 5-star safety rating.

Built to Perform
For maximum power and torque for heavy-duty towing, the Ranger is powered by a 3.2-liter
Duratorq five-cylinder TDCi diesel engine which puts out an impressive 147 kW of power and
470 Nm of torque.
