Motion R adds a bit more flair to the Ford Ranger Wildtrack thanks to carbon fibre parts

The Ford Ranger Raptor sits at the very top of the American brand’s pick-up range, overshadowing other versions of the same truck, even though they are also highly capable for work and for tackling practically any terrain. This is the case of the Wildtrack version, which has less sophisticated components and is therefore cheaper than the Raptor, but is also a very capable pick-up worth considering.

If we opt for the Ranger Wildtrack, we will not get cutting-edge components such as the FOX suspension or the specific reinforcements, but we will save a good chunk of money, which we can invest in the Wildtrack itself to give it a more aggressive look thanks to the carbon fibre kit from British tuners Motion R. But be quick: if you want this look for your Wildtrack, they will only produce 50 units.

On the outside, the carbon fibre body kit consists first of a grille with a more aggressive design for both the grille and the lower air intakes, which change shape because the lower part of the bumper has also been altered and is now larger. In addition, a splitter has been fitted to the lower part of the bumper, extending above the wheel arches. On the sides, the wheel arches have also been modified and widened, to the perfect size to cover the new 20-inch forged wheels. At the rear, a spoiler-style appendage and a more prominent rear bumper have been fitted, and the exterior is finished with side skirts and LED lights mounted on the roof for extra illumination.

Motion R also wants the interior of the Ranger Wildtrack to match the styling applied on the exterior, so carbon fibre is also a feature in the inserts of the dashboard, the interior door panels and the steering wheel. In addition, the seats have been upholstered in Nappa leather and the Motion R logos have been engraved on the headrests, and they also appear on the new floor mats. For the load bed, Motion R will allow you to install various mounts for carrying leisure gear more securely, such as surfboards and wetsuits.

Mechanically there are no changes, so let’s recall that in Spain the Ford Ranger Wildtrack is marketed with the 2.0-litre EcoBlue engine, which delivers 205 CV along with 500 Nm of torque, mated to a 10-speed automatic gearbox. With this engine, the Ranger Wildtrack records a combined consumption of 8.8 l/100 km and CO2 emissions of 230 g/km under the WLTP test cycle.
