The T6 replaces two regional Ranger platforms: the Mazda BT-50-derived model sold in the Latin America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific regions and the North American model sold in select Latin American markets.Although the T6 Ranger is sold in 180 global markets, it is currently not sold in Canada and the United States, due to the new platform being too close in size and cost to the F-150, and due to overall declining sales of compact pickups in North America. However, it is offered in the Middle East, Mexico, Suriname, Ecuador, Peru, the Netherlands (Aruba, Curaçao, and St. Marteen), the Cayman Islands and most Caribbean countries in addition to the F-150. However the Ranger isn't sold alongside the Ford F-Series in Iceland. Ford initially planned a mid-size truck based on a modified F-150 chassis for the North American market named the F-100; however, this was shelved in favour of offering the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine on the F-150. Additionally, American and Canadian safety and emissions standards as well as the long-standing 25% import tariff imposed on non-American built light trucks prevent the T6 Ranger from being imported into North America; however, the 3.2L Duratorq is being adapted for North American consumption as a Power Stroke engine in the 2015 Ford Transit. Similarly, safety and emissions standards in ECE-compliant nations, the need for right-hand drive in certain international markets, and foreign perception of American vehicles being too large prevent the F-150 from being globalised.Production commenced in summer 2011, starting with Thailand's Rayong plant, with production in South Africa and Argentina to follow. Additionally, Mazda offers a badge-engineered version of the T6 as the second generation BT-50. Although the BT-50 shares few exterior and interior parts with the Ranger, both trucks are the same mechanically.Ford's affiliate, Jiangling Motors builds a model based on the Ford Ranger called the JMC Yuhu for the Chinese market. Then on 19 August 2015, Ford started producing the Ranger in China in partnership with JMC.On August 25, 2015, reports began circulating that Ford is planning to bring the Ranger back to production in North America as a entry in the 2018 model year. Along with the Ranger, Ford is also planning to revive the Bronco SUV on the same platform. If all this goes according to plan, the vehicles would be built at its Wayne, Michigan plant."@en }
