One of the reasons i have order a 2025 Ford Ranger XLT. 0 to 60 times from one persons test.
Yes, data is from a Ford Explorer, but you get the idea.

I think you've mistaken the '25 numbers which are obviously 3.0 numbers as being for the 2.3.
There is no way that the 2.3 can generate 5.1 second 0-60 times.

Yes, sometimes there's lot's of miss information on the Net. The AI thinking it knows what its talking about.
Will try to find another 0 to 60.

6.1 to 6.6 seconds for both.


Its very similar. Lot's of variables 2 Wheel drive, 4, Altitude, weight of truck and so on.

Our '24 Ranger STX 4x4 with the 2.3 is really quick. It came with a 3.73 rear-end and that might make a slight difference. 🤔 It seems as quick as my wife's 2017 Infiniti QX50 with the 3.7 Nissan VQ V-6 engine with 325 horsepower. And that little, rather homely crossover is the quickest car I've ever owned. I'd like to set up a drag race between the two! 😁
