As the two market leaders, Toyota and Ford are the must-haves, and there’s a reason for that! The models of both brands are designed to meet the needs of North Americans, who live in huge territories and often travel long distances. In Quebec, everyone’s needs are also linked to the climatic conditions, including snow. So if you need to buy a new vehicle, but are still hesitating: read the guide! The 440 Ford Lincoln dealer in Laval offers you its expertise, and compares for you the 2022 Ford Ranger and the 2022 Toyota Tacoma. Why these two vehicles? Well, because our experts have studied the question, and the models that caught their attention for the 2022 versions are the two compared below.

Performance

The 2022 Ford Ranger is undoubtedly more powerful than its Japanese counterpart.

  • In the 2.3-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder version, the Ford has 270 horsepower, while the 2.7-liter 4-cylinder version of the Toyota has only 159 horsepower.
  • In comparison, Ford’s twin-turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 brings 330 horsepower, a figure not matched by the Tacoma’s 278-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 equivalent. Towing capacity

Towing capacity

Again, the Ranger 2022 seems to outperform the Tacoma 2022, with a towing capacity of 3,400 kilos (7,500 lbs), versus 3,085 kilos (6,800 lbs). It’s up to you to decide if you want to tow heavy loads or if you want to keep your vehicle for everyday use!

Design

In terms of exterior design, the Ranger appears to be a redesigned model, inspired by its predecessors, while being modernized.

The Toyota, on the other hand, offers a more mature design that places it perfectly in wilderness or hard-to-reach areas.

The Ranger’s finishes are more angular yet sleeker, while those of the Tacoma, which opts for a more rounded design, are distinct and distinctive.

The dimensions of the two models remain very similar, with only a few centimeters more in length for the Toyota 2022 (about 216 inches, compared to 212 for the Ford).

The interior of both vehicles is very similar, with modules specific to compact pick-ups, both practical and comfortable. It’s all a matter of taste and preference, as comfort and options are similar. It’s worth noting that the Tacoma doesn’t offer USB ports or a mobile hotspot.

Now that you know everything, you just have to choose between the Ranger and the Tacoma.
