In order to pay tribute to a motorcycle racing icon
such as Valentino Rossi, MS-RT joined forces with Carlex Design to put together
a bespoke Ford Ranger with VR/46 branding both inside and out. While the Nappa leather
interior features a custom steering wheel as well as VR/46 stickers, boards and
embroidered motifs, the exterior of the truck packs a new front bumper, grille,
and 18" graphite wheels.
Other add-ons include Laser LED full beam assist
lights for the grille, a roof-mounted light bar, full suspension-lift kit and a
bespoke dual-exit MS-RT Sports Exhaust system. In terms of performance, this
Ranger is packing Ford's 3.2-liter TDCi Duratorq diesel unit, offering 200 PS and 470 Nm of torque, available from 1,500 to 2,750 rpm.
As for tech and convenience features, we're talking
8-way electrically-adjustable heated drivers seat with lumbar support, tailgate
assist, power foldable matte black door mirrors, dual-zone climate control, an 8"
TFT touchscreen with Ford SYNC3 (voice control, Bluetooth and USB
connectivity), sat-nav, a rear-view camera, front parking sensors and a 230V
interior invertor.
Customers can also opt for the Off-Road package,
which includes not only the previously-mentioned suspension lift kit and
roof-mounted LED light bar, but also an MS-RT underbody fuel tank protector and
exclusive front and rear rubber floor mats.
