DETROIT – The Ford Ranger captured the coveted title of 2025 North American Truck of the Year, marking the fifth consecutive year a Ford truck has received the trophy.
“Earning this recognition celebrates our team’s dedication to continuously raising the bar for midsize truck customers,” said Jim Baumbick, vice president, Advanced Product Development, Cycle Plan, and Programs. “We rigorously tested Ranger in challenging environments around the world to deliver the Built Ford Tough durability our customers demand. This award is a tribute to our customers who inspire us every day.”
To be recognized as the North American Truck of the Year, vehicles must be new or substantially changed for the year. The independent and unbiased jury of 50 automotive journalists who produce content for a variety of print, broadcast and digital media in the United States and Canada choose a winner based on innovation, design, safety, performance, technology, user experience, driver satisfaction and value.
The win recognizes the Ranger’s exceptional combination of rugged durability, advanced technology, and smart features designed to enhance both on- and off-road experiences.
The Ford Ranger and Ranger Raptor are assembled at the Michigan Assembly Plant, representing a continuation of Ford’s legacy of building trucks that are as tough and capable as the people who drive them.
