Ford Australia has registered the Ford Ranger Raptor and Ford Ranger FX4 trademarks ahead of the revised Ford Ranger ‘s local launch later this year. The trademarks, which were lodged on June 5, 2015 are for the trademarks Ford Ranger Raptor, Ranger Raptor and Ranger FX4. The CarAdvice spy photographer has also snapped images of what appears to be a high-riding, flared wheel arch bearing... While there has never been an official Ranger Raptor (just aftermarket body kit options), the Ranger FX4 was a special edition version of the American Ford Ranger. Ford Australia has released specifications and further detail around the local Ranger Wildtrak offering , but has refused to comment on any further Ranger derivatives above and beyond the Ranger Wildtrak. “We’re concentrating on the pre-launch for the Ranger at the moment and the Wildtrak is our range-topper for Australia,” said Ford Australia brand communications manager, Neil McDonald.
