The world’s top female motoring journalists have spoken. For 2023, the Women’s World Car of the Year (WWCOTY) best 4x4 and pickup is the Ford Ranger.
The American truck was voted this year’s top pickup offering by a panel of 63 women motoring writers from 45 countries across the globe. According to WWCOTY, the 2023 Ranger is both “stylish and charismatic” and “efficient as an off-roader, but more practical thanks to its cargo box.”
“Having worked on the new Ranger right from the beginning, I know how much customer feedback was poured into the truck to ensure it was fit for work, family, and play,” Natasha Milner, Ford Ranger and Everest platform manager said in a statement after the model’s win.
