Let's start with performance. Regarding sheer power, the 2024 Ford Ranger takes the lead. With its range of engine options, including the all-new 2.7-liter turbo V6 delivering 315 hp of power for XLT and Lariat trims and an impressive 405 hp of power for the off-road-ready Raptor trim, the Ranger is built to deliver thrills on and off the road. In comparison, while the 2024 Toyota Tacoma offers three engine options, including an optional i-Force Max hybrid powertrain with 326 hp of power, it falls slightly short of the maximum power output delivered by the 2024 Ranger.
Speaking of off-road capabilities, the 2024 Ford Ranger once again proves its superiority. The new 2024 Ranger Raptor trim model is a force to be reckoned with, featuring a twin-turbo, 405-hp engine, front and rear lockers, four-wheel drive, and Fox Live Valve Shocks as standard. While the 2024 Tacoma offers off-road-ready trim models like the TRD Off-Road and TRD Pro, only the all-new Trailhunter comes close to competing with the Ranger Raptor, boasting a standard lineup that includes the 326-hp hybrid powertrain, all-terrain tires, Old Man Emu suspension, and four-wheel drive.
When it comes to standard features, both trucks offer impressive infotainment technology. The 2024 Ford Ranger comes standard with a digital gauge cluster, Ford SYNC® 4 infotainment system, and wireless Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™ connectivity. Similarly, the Tacoma offers smartphone integration features and an 8-inch central touchscreen.
However, the Tacoma has a slight edge in safety features, with the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 package standard across all trim levels, providing additional driver safety enhancements such as forward collision warning, lane departure mitigation, and adaptive cruise control.
Under the hood, the 2023 Toyota Crown is powered by multiple advanced engine options that deliver robust and efficient performance. The car's hybrid engine combines an electric motor with a gasoline engine to provide power and efficiency. Its advanced suspension and handling technologies ensure a smooth and responsive ride. The 2023 Toyota Crown is a true driver's car with powerful acceleration and precise handling.
As for available upgrades, both trucks offer a wide range of options to suit your preferences. From comfort features like heated front seats and leather upholstery to convenience features like a power tailgate and wireless smartphone charging pad, the choice is yours.
While the 2024 Ford Ranger and the 2024 Toyota Tacoma offer impressive features and capabilities, the upgraded performance and off-road prowess of the 2024 Ranger give it the edge.
