Power Comes Standard
There are three trims level for the 2021 Ford Ranger, all of which share the same EcoBoost® 
4-cylinder engine. So, you won't need to look past the standard trim to get the impressive power this truck affords.
The 4-cylinder makes 270 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque. An auto start/stop system also comes standard, and it will shut off your engine when your truck comes to a complete halt in an effort to save fuel.
Speaking of fuel, the Ranger is pretty darn good at conserving it. EPA estimates for the 4x2 drivetrain check in at 21 city/26 highway MPG. There isn't much of a drop-off if you move to the 4x4 drivetrain, either, as EPA estimates check in at 20 city/24 highway MPG.
What Is The Maximum Towing Capacity and Payload?
So, how well does the Ford Ranger put down all this power when you have a trailer attached? The answer is… pretty darn well.
A maximum towing capacity of 7,500 pounds gives you a lot of options for towing. That number remains the same, regardless of the cab style you opt for with your Ranger.
Payload is also strong. The maximum payload reaches 1,860 pounds when properly equipped. This figure will vary slightly, depending on your drivetrain type and the cab type you select. Still, payload will always remain above 1,400 pounds in any configuration.
