Txawm hais tias zoo sib xws thiab cov qauv zoo sib xws rau Ford Ranger tawm, 2022 T6.2 yog lub tshuab tsim kho tshiab.

Lub tsheb muaj kev vam meej tshaj plaws uas tau tsim thiab tsim nyob rau hauv Australia, Ford T6 Ranger yuav pom nws qhov kev hloov pauv loj tshaj plaws nyob rau hauv ntau tshaj kaum xyoo thaum cov ntawv xaj thaum kawg qhib qee lub sijhawm hauv peb lub hlis twg xyoo 2022, ua ntej ntawm kev xa khoom nruab nrab xyoo. .

Raws li T6 tus thawj coj ua haujlwm Ian Foston, P703 qhov project yog ntau tshaj li cov tawv tawv rov ua dua tshiab, lub dashboard restyled thiab xaiv V6 lub cav zais hauv qab lub hood zoo li F-series.

Nws tau hais tias "Muaj yuav luag ob peb ntu hauv lub tsheb no uas koj yuav hais tias zoo ib yam li lub tsheb dhau los," nws hais. "Muaj ntau yam txog Ranger tam sim no uas zoo tiag tiag, zoo li qhov sib npaug, qhov sib npaug ntawm iav thiab hlau hais txog kev pom ... kev hloov kho thoob plaws kom ua rau nws muaj kev lom zem ntau dua hauv txhua txoj hauv kev ... rau peb, yuav luag txhua qhov nthuav dav hauv lub tsheb no tau raug kho dua lossis hloov pauv. "

Qhov kev pab cuam tau pib xyoo 2015, tom qab lub ntiaj teb tso tawm ntawm tus muam SUV Everest, yog li nws siv sijhawm yuav luag xya xyoo los tsim. Txij thaum pib, nws tau suav tias yog tiam tom ntej Ranger, Raptor thiab Everest, nrog rau Bronco, uas tej zaum yuav los yog tsis tau tuaj txog hauv Australia.

Kev tsim khoom yuav pib hauv Thaib teb thiab South Africa (uas tau ua lub luag haujlwm loj vim tias lawv nyuam qhuav dhau los kho cov nroj tsuag loj los txhim kho kev ua tau zoo thiab zoo) thaum ntxov xyoo tom ntej, txawm hais tias muaj qee yam tseem tsis tau tshaj tawm.

Yog li, nrog ntau yam tshiab, vim li cas ho tsis siv T7 hloov T6.2? Mr. Foston tau hais tias kev tsim vaj tsev Ranger tseem zoo ib yam li yav dhau los - lub cev ntawm ib lub thav duab, lub cev txuas nrog rau hauv txoj kev zoo sib xws thiab siv cov thev naus laus zis zoo sib xws. Yog tias Ford tau dhau los ua ib qho lossis hloov pauv tus neeg tsav tsheb txoj haujlwm, qhov no yuav xav tau kev hloov pauv tag nrho. Nws nyob ntawm seb yuav ua li cas.

Yog li, feem ntau ntawm lub ntsiab lub cev thiab chassis Cheebtsam ntawm Ranger tsis hloov - qhov chaw thiab lub kaum sab xis ntawm lub windshield, lub ru tsev, pem hauv ntej qhov rooj qhib, rooj zaum, rear qhov rais thiab lub cev qhov chaw - raws li zoo raws li tag nrho qhov ntev, uas txhais tau hais tias sab hauv, Ford mus txog tseem faib nws ua ib feem ntawm T6. Tshwj xeeb tshaj yog vim Ford Australia tseem yog chav kawm tsheb thoob ntiaj teb.

Yuav kom nkag siab txog dab tsi coj mus rau theem ntawm kev hloov pauv ntawm hnub no Ranger mus rau T6.2 tshiab, koj yuav tsum tig mus rau zaj lus qhia keeb kwm - me ntsis paub thiab zoo heev!

Ranger lineup muaj XL, XLS, XLT, Sport thiab Wildtrak.

Thaum Ford Australia pib T6 qhov kev pab cuam nyob ib ncig ntawm 2007 ua ntej nws lub xyoo 2011 tso tawm, nws tsis yog npaj los ua ib lub tsheb loj loj thoob ntiaj teb muag hauv 180 lub teb chaws (feem ntau hauv Ford lub ntiaj teb) raws li niaj hnub no. North America tau meej meej tsis suav nrog hauv qhov kev pabcuam thawj zaug. Txawm li cas los xij, qhov no tau hloov pauv hauv xyoo 2010, yuav tsum tau hloov kho ntau yam hauv lub neej ntawm cov qauv uas twb muaj lawm kom tso cai rau nws siv ntau yam roj av thiab diesel xyaw uas xav tau hauv Asmeskas, nrog rau lwm lub cev qauv, uas yog Everest (2016) thiab Raptor offshoots ( 2018) tau muag txhua qhov chaw, suav nrog hauv Australia.

Qhov no ua rau muaj kev txhim kho ntawm ob lub platform T6 sib txawv: thawj thawj-tiam ib-thooj thav duab uas tau ua haujlwm rau txhua tus Rangers rau hnub tim (txog 2022) (tsis tau ua nyob rau hauv Teb Chaws Asmeskas), thiab cov tshiab thib ob-tiam peb-thooj ncej tsim. rau Everest, Raptor thiab lub khw tam sim no. US Ranger nkaus xwb.  

Ib lub thav duab muaj ib lub stamping pem hauv ntej thiab nram qab los tsim ib lub thawv chassis, thiab yog ib qho kev lag luam (nyeem: pheej yig dua) kev daws teeb meem uas feem ntau cov tsheb thauj khoom siv. Tab sis nws tsis tso cai rau ntau yam. Qhov ntawd tau hloov nrog 2015 Everest thaum T6 platform hloov zuj zus mus rau hauv XNUMX daim thav duab nrog lub ntsej muag tshiab rau pem hauv ntej clamp kom haum rau cov motors sib txawv, scalable nruab nrab thiab nram qab nrog Everest / Raptor coil tshiab. -caij nplooj ntoos hlav, nrog rau lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav rear ncua kev kawm ntawv. Qhov no tso cai rau koj hloov lub ncua kev kawm ntawv nyob rau hauv lub rear, adjustable wheelbase nyob rau hauv qhov chaw thiab lub modularity ntawm lub engine nyob rau hauv pem hauv ntej. 

Styling qhia txog qhov tam sim no Ford F-series tsheb loj loj rau North America.

2022 Ranger 6.2 yog ib tiam thib peb, peb-thooj thav duab tsim nrog Ranger rau Asmeskas kev ua lag luam, tab sis kuj tseem txawv ntawm nws, nrog rau txhua feem thiab vaj huam sib luag muaj tus lej tuag sib txawv, raws li Mr Foston.

"Tawm ntawm lub platform, pib nrog lub cim thib peb T6 platform, txhua lub tsheb yuav muaj ntau qhov thiab cov ncej yuav yog peb feem," nws hais. "Lub chassis tau raug kho dua tshiab los ntawm hauv av - txhua yam yog hom tshiab."

Txhawm rau suav nws, ib sab ntawm styling, qhov kev hloov pauv loj tshaj plaws tau mus rau qhov ntev ntawm T6.2: lub wheelbase thiab lem tau nce los ntawm 50mm txhua tus kom haum rau V6 variants destined rau Ranger thiab lwm yam qauv, suav nrog kev lees paub 3.0-liter. turbodiesel cav. ntawm F-150 thaiv tau pib hauv Asmeskas xyoo 2018, nrog rau 2.7-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost petrol engine xav tau hauv Australia tom qab.

Yog li ntawd, txhua yam nyob rau hauv pem hauv ntej ntawm lub cav firewall yog tshiab, yuav tsum tau hloov mus rau ib tug hydroformed qauv.

Lub steering yog ib tug tom ntej-tiam hluav taws xob khib thiab pinion system hais tias yuav yooj yim rau kev tswj, nrog ntau xaiv hom kom haum tus neeg tsav tsheb tastes, tab sis tsis muaj kev hloov nyob rau hauv lub hauv paus iav piv los ntawm ua ntej.

Qhov dav nce ntxiv txhais tau hais tias rov tsim dua qhov xav tau ntawm lub caij nplooj ntoo hlav-lub caij nplooj ntoos hlav ywj pheej pem hauv ntej ncua kev kawm nrog txhua qhov tshiab geometry, thaum tseem txav cov dampers ntxiv mus rau sab nraud dua li ua ntej rau kev sib tw zoo dua thiab caij tsheb zoo dua.

"Nws txawv," Mr. Foston hais. "Coils, dampers, qis tswj caj npab, sab caj npab tswj, kauj knuckles ...geometry, txhua yam."

Lub axle articulation kuj tau nce ntxiv rau ntau qhov kev muaj peev xwm ntawm 4x4 qauv, nrog kev txhim kho thiab kev tawm ntawm lub kaum sab xis thiab "me ntsis" sib txawv (piv txwv li me ntsis zuj zus) tawg lub kaum sab xis. Ford tseem tsis tau tshaj tawm cov lej no.

2022 Ranger tau lees tias yuav zoo dua aerodynamically.

Cov khoom cua txias kuj tau hloov pauv ua tsaug rau cov qauv hydroformed. Nyob rau hauv pem hauv ntej ntawm lub bluff txhais tau hais tias ib tug loj array ntawm radiators yuav tsum tau ntsia, tso cai rau kom zoo engine txias thiab cua txias efficiency, tshwj xeeb tshaj yog nyob rau hauv load los yog kub heev. Txog rau qhov kawg no, kuj tseem muaj "cov kiv cua hluav taws xob" tsim los ntawm North American Ranger tam sim no, nrog rau kev quab yuam cua txias rau qhov xwm txheej ceev nkag.

Foston hais tias, "Lawv muab cov huab cua kom zoo txawm tias muaj cov khoom siv tau teeb tsa," Foston hais tias, hais txog winches, kab teeb siab, yob tuav thiab lwm yam khoom tom qab uas cov tswv tab tom txhim kho lawv lub tsheb. Yog li ntawd, lub tuam txhab Australian ARB tau ua haujlwm nrog Ford los tsim cov ntsiab lus aerodynamic. 

Lwm qhov kev hloov pauv tau ua rau lub qhov rooj - lawv zoo sib xws tab sis muaj qhov sib txawv, stampings thiab cov cuab yeej, cov ntsaws ruaj ruaj thiab sab hauv kev ua haujlwm, thiab lub nraub qaum txawm qhib dav dua ua ntej kom yooj yim nkag rau hauv.

Lub T6.2 muaj lub tshuab hluav taws xob tshiab txhua lub log ntawm kev thov.

Raws li plaub-log disc nres tam sim no tau muab rau ntawm qee qhov kev sib tw (US version ntawm T6 tam sim no tau muaj txij li thaum nws tso tawm xyoo 2019), Mr Foston tau hais tias qhov no yog vim cov neeg siv khoom thov, lees paub tias kev teeb tsa disc / disc muab tau zoo dua. braking kev ua tau zoo. Cov kev hloov pauv twg yuav tau txais dab tsi tseem yuav paub ze dua rau hnub tso tawm ntawm T6.2.

Lwm qhov kev hloov pauv uas txhim kho T6.2 qhov kev ua tau zoo ntawm txoj kev thiab kev ua haujlwm yog qhov tshiab hluav taws xob txhua lub log tsav. Nws muaj plaub-log tsav mus tas li (4A) nrog kev sib txawv ntawm pem hauv ntej lossis lub log tsav kom muaj kev ntseeg siab ntau tsav tsheb qhov xav tau ntau dua, nrog rau rau rau hom kev tsav tsheb zoo li Raptor tam sim no. Qhov no yog lwm qhov tshiab ntxiv rau Ranger hauv Australia, tab sis nws tsuas yog txhais tau tias muaj kev ntaus nqi siab dua.

Qhov no yog ntxiv rau kev sim suab puam hauv Africa, Australia thiab Asmeskas.

Hais txog cov cuab yeej ua lag luam, lub txaj ute tau tam sim no tau rov tsim dua tshiab nrog 50mm nce hauv qhov dav kom tso cai rau tus qauv palette. Lub txaj hauv ob sab phlu yog tam sim no molded, nrog kev ua haujlwm sib faib cov chaw tso cai rau cov neeg siv khoom ua lawv tus kheej partitions. Mounting cov ntsiab lus yog xaiv tau muaj nyob rau ntawm sab nrauv rails siv lub luag haujlwm hnyav tubular steel rails, sab saum toj ntawm lub cev qis yog capped tawm (zoo ib yam li US Ranger tam sim no) nrog lub hau retractable rau kev thauj khoom yooj yim ntawm cov khoom siv.

Qhov kev sib tw loj tshaj plaws yog ua tiav qhov dav ntawm lub peev xwm xav tau los ntawm 4 × 2 tsheb thauj mus los rau 4 × 4 SUV.

"Bandwidth (yuav tsum tau) yog qhov nyuaj tshaj plaws," Foston tau hais. 

"Koj xav txog qhov bandwidth xav tau rau Everest, uas yog peb cov khoom kim tshaj plaws, khoom kim heev thiab yooj yim tshaj plaws, los ntawm Ranger Single Cab Low-Rider mus rau Bronco thiab Ford Performance cov khoom kuj tuaj rau lub platform no. Yuav ua li cas peb ua txhua yam no thiab nthuav dav lub peev xwm ntawm lub platform ... yuav ua li cas sib npaug nws txoj cai? Nws yog ib qho nyuaj rau kuv kom ua tiav txhua yam no.

“Thiab kuv xav tias peb tau ua nws. Thiab ua nws hauv txhua lub khw uas peb muag hauv, hauv 180 lub khw, sab nraum ib lub platform? Kuv xav tias pab pawg tau ua haujlwm zoo heev.

"Peb tau coj qhov Ranger uas twb muaj lawm thiab tawm mus thiab hais tias peb xav txhim kho."
