3.2 in Everest is Euro6 already with addition of DEF (adblue) but makes 143kw instead of 147kw in Ranger is possible ...

Can confirm that the px3 come with the 2.0 bi turbo. I saw an XLT this morning that the tape hiding the badges was hanging off. It had "Bi Turbo" badging on the side.

Thing is I believe some purchased the Ranger over the Hilux purely for a couple of reasons.
sound of the 3.2 5 cylinder of the tractor Hilux 4cyl sound.
the fact that it was a bigger engine, some people look at this regardless of specs and perfomance

Today is supposed to be the day??

Apparently 3.2 and optional 2.0 will be offered in the XLT / Wildtrak. 2.0 will be the same spec as Raptor.

The Ford kills the Hilux on so many levels. Just simple things like comfort at highway speed, the Hilux is as rough as guts.

Can't we get a Bi-Turbo 3.2?

Also how hard would it be to make the 2.0 into a 4.0 V8 form a factory point of view?

A lot harder than making an I-5 or an I-6.

Would need a new block and crank castings, and a new assembly line to go with it. Not going to happen.
