Ford's Ranger seems to be the popular bunny these days. A lot of aftermarket companies all across the globe have given the Ranger and the Ranger Raptor special treatments, generally about off-road equipment and performance upgrades. However, here’s a unique mod-job that sets this Ranger Raptor apart from the others.
A workshop in Vietnam that goes by the name AutoBis has turned the Ranger Raptor into a party animal. Called the Autobis Raptor Ultima, this truck receives sound system upgrades that can blow the roof off. Wait, that is if you park it indoors. Wouldn’t you prefer taking it to the woods and having a blast around a campfire instead?

The Autobis Raptor Ultima comes with a lot of sound system upgrades not just inside the cabin, but also in the bed. Here’s the whole list of upgrades that the workshop has made to this off-roader:
-* Two-Way Focal Utopia Be Kit No. 6 Speakers
-* One Brax DSP
-* Two Focal Utopia Be 21 WX Subwoofers
-* A Pair Of Brax MX4 Pro Amplifiers
-* An Astell & Kern A&ultima SP1000 Music Player
The truck bed receives:
-* Two German Maestro 8-inch Speakers
-* Two Kicker KMS67 Speakers
-* A Pair of Kicker KM8 Speakers
-* Kicker 15-inch Subwoofer
-* Alpine DSP
There are lighting upgrades, as well, and the whole setup looks fantastic at night. There’s no denying that the setup suits the Raptor’s demeanor. Should this vehicle appear in rap videos like the lowriders with hydraulic shocks popular in the ‘90s and 2000s?
Would You Take The Ranger Raptor Off-Roading With This Setup?
Speaking of the Ranger Raptor, it features a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder diesel engine under the hood that makes 213 horses and 368 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent to the wheels via the same 10-speed automatic transmission as the standard Ranger. The Ranger Raptor takes 10.5 seconds to hit the 60 mph mark from a standstill. The figure is far from impressive and this proves that the truck is focused on off-roading and not straight-line antics.
The truck comes with a reinforced chassis, an electronic rear-axle lock, Fox racing shocks, and an underbody guard amongst other things. It uses a different set of bumpers when compared to the standard Ranger for better approach and departure angles. The towing and payload capacities, however, are lower than the standard Ranger’s.
Final Thoughts
The whole setup will cost you $80,000. Audiophiles with a buttload of cash will be interested in this vehicle. At this price point, there isn’t a shortage of powerful, fast vehicles and you can have your pick of the litter. It’ll be interesting to see how many Raptors with this setup will be sold.
