Chevrolet will be releasing the Colorado in the coming weeks. All of its engines will be available. Ford Philippines really needs to ask Ford global HQ to give them the go signal to start selling the 3.2 Wildtrak as soon as possible if they really want to have a healthy competition.
This one is the all new global Colorado, built in Thailand and different from the North American version. Kalaban ng all new Global Ranger. Diesel din ang engine and the new D-Max is based on this. So how can you say the new Colorado is one of the most unreliable vehicles? If that's true, dapat marami nang reklamo from the Thai owners.
not to start an argument and this isn't the thread for it but chevrolet isn't known for it's trucks and failed miserably on all their truck line ups these past decade. i'd buy other cars that they offer but not their trucks/pick-up any time soon.
^^^ Agreed, if Chevrolet does not have a good track record of building pickups, then it would be hard to assume that this one is any different. Not much complaints in Thailand maybe because very few buyers there also compared to the new Ford Ranger.
Lets see how people respond to these new thai made pick up trucks. If ford wont bring the 3.2 engine anytime soon i would pick the 2.8 colorado over the 2.2 ranger which seem underpowered for a heavy truck, 150HP lang. :laughbounce:
How come walang 4x4 sa website nila? Would anyone have any idea how much the simplest 4x4 mt would be?
The first 4x4 to be made available here is the 2.2 4x4 XL M/T (PhP 1,179,000).
It's on their site (photo shows the XLT though the lower trim XL has 16 inch alloys vs the 17 inch wheels of the XLT.)

The photo they used to represent the 4x4 XL is not accurate, both are actually XLT models. I think the other Ranger in the photo has optional accessories. (In other words don't always trust the photos used in car sites, specially the local ones)
According to Ford Philippines' AVP for corporate communications, Anika Salceda-Wycoco's post on Ford Philippines' FB page, the 4x4 XL will have 16 inch alloy wheels.
The XLT (in the photos you posted) use 17 inch wheels.
I searched online and these are the 16 inch alloy wheels for the 2012 Ranger that I found.
PS: She also said the local spec 4x4 XL won't have exterior tie-down hooks. (other low trim Rangers sold in other countries have them)

Not sure about the bumper trim, but the "Tubular Sport Bar" is listed as one of the accessories.

Apparently not. According to Ford Philippines' reply to a question posted on their FB page regarding the Ranger's specs...
I checked the website of Ford South Africa, and the 2.2 liter Duratorq TDCi is available in two versions.Both the XL and XLT will be equipped with our 2.2L engines -- Ford Duratorq TDCi 2.2L VG Turbo for the XLT and Duratorq TDCi 2.2L Turbo for the XL.
One with 120 PS and 285 Nm of torque and a stronger one with 150 PS and 375 Nm of torque.
The 4x2 XLT uses the 150 PS version, so I'm guessing the 4x4 XL uses the 120 PS version. Guess we have to stay tuned for updates.
