V6 Power with Heavy-Duty Bones
Under the bonnet sits Ford’s 3.0L V6 turbo diesel, recalibrated for the Super Duty to deliver 154 kW and the full 600 Nm of torque from 1,750 rpm. It’s paired with a 10 speed automatic and full-time 4WD, with locking front and rear differentials as standard. The chassis is reinforced, the axles are upgraded (1,900 kg front, 2,800 kg rear), and the brakes are larger than the standard Ranger to handle the higher loads.
What that means in practice: a 4,500 kg braked tow rating, an 8,000 kg GCM, and the headroom to tow a heavy van or plant trailer while still carrying close to a tonne in the tray. The 130-litre fuel tank stretches the range between fills, and the factory integrated trailer brake controller with Pro-Trailer Backup Assist makes hitching and reversing a big trailer far less of a hassle than it sounds.
Built for Heavy-Duty Work
The fit out on this unit is deliberately tradie focused. A full-size TUS Offroad canopy spans the entire heavy duty aluminium tray with lockable side and rear trundle drawer access, so tools, swags and recovery gear stay dry and out of sight. A factory Safari snorkel sits over the guard, feeding the V6 clean, dry air through dust on the station track.
Towing hardware is sorted. The heavy-duty towbar is rated to the full 4,500 kg with a 450 kg ball weight, and the integrated electric trailer brake controller works straight off the plug with any electrically braked trailer up to that limit. Drive modes cover Normal, Eco, Tow-Haul, Slippery, Mud, Sand, Rock Crawl, with the locking diffs ready when the going gets greasy.
Bitumen to Bush, Monday to Monday
The cabin keeps things straightforward for long days at the wheel. A 12 inch SYNC 4 touchscreen handles wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an 8 inch digital cluster sits in front of the driver, and the Onboard Scales system reads live payload and towball weight straight on the screen. That’s handy when you’re loading the tray with a recovery kit plus fuel for a long trip. Dual-zone climate, wireless phone charging, a 400 W inverter and a full suite of driver aids (AEB, adaptive cruise, blind-spot, 360° camera) round it out.
If you have outgrown a standard ute but don’t want to wear American truck dimensions or 79-Series compromises, the Ranger Super Duty is the middle ground. Book the 2026 Ford Ranger Super Duty at tradierentals.com.au for jobs the regular Ranger can’t take on.
