2025 Ford Ranger Adds Black Appearance Package
Posted on December 12, 2024
The 2025 Ford Ranger builds on the all-new 2024 model with a handful of changes, keeping it fresh in the competitive mid-size pickup market. Ford has mostly focused on fine-tuning optional features and refreshing available exterior colors, making slight adjustments to some packages. One of the most notable additions this year is the new Black Appearance Package, bringing a stylish, sleek look to the XLT and Lariat trims, featuring 18-inch black wheels, black Ford emblems, and a body-color painted front fascia. Offered at $895 USD, this package has proven popular across Ford’s lineup, catering to buyers who want a bold, dark aesthetic for their Ranger.
Aside from the Black Appearance Package, Ford has introduced a few other updates to enhance the Ranger’s appeal. The removal of the factory-installed keyless entry keypad, now offered as a dealer-installed option, is one change aimed at streamlining production. Ford has also swapped out three paint colors, adding new shades like Ruby Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat, Desert Sand, and Marsh Gray while retiring Cactus Gray, Hot Pepper Red Metallic Tinted Clearcoat, and Iconic Silver Metallic. These additions provide more choice for buyers looking to add a unique touch to their new Ranger.
Additional changes include the replacement of the Chrome Appearance Package with the new Chrome Accent Package, which offers subtler chrome elements, appealing to those who prefer a less shiny look. This new package maintains the appeal of chrome accents while catering to evolving customer preferences for a more understated design.
In line with these updates, Ford has introduced slight price increases for the 2025 model year, making these upgrades and options an added incentive for buyers considering a mid-size pickup. The 2025 Ranger stands as a versatile and modern truck that adapts to both work and lifestyle needs, giving potential buyers plenty of reasons to explore its latest enhancements.
