Ford Australia has taken the wraps off the full specifications and official accessories for the upcoming 2026 Ranger Super Duty, setting a new benchmark for durability, capability, and customisation.
The accessories – all engineered and rigorously tested by Ford – come with a five-year warranty when fitted by authorised dealers prior to delivery. Options range from heavy-duty trays and bull bars to innovative tech integrations that make the Super Duty a true workhorse.
Ready for Work and Play
The Ranger Super Duty cabin has been built with durability in mind. Hard-wearing vinyl flooring, tough cloth seats, and unique Super Duty branding are paired with the latest technology: a 12-inch SYNC screen with sat-nav, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, wireless charging, and even a dedicated USB port for dash cams.
Driver convenience features include automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, dual-zone climate control, Pro Power Onboard™ 400W inverter, and an electro-chromatic rear-view mirror. Safety is well covered with Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Monitoring, 360-degree cameras, AEB, and Pro Trailer Backup Assist.
Off-Road and Heavy-Duty Capability
Selectable drive modes (Normal, Eco, Tow/Haul, Mud/Ruts, Sand, Rock Crawl) and features like Trail Control and Trail Turn Assist ensure the Ranger Super Duty is ready for any terrain. Importantly, a new Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration control allows owners to manually manage regeneration cycles – a big plus for operators working short routes or in sensitive environments.
The Accessory Range
Ford’s headline accessory is the Super Duty steel tray, featuring a flexible bolted construction to reduce chassis stress, heavy-duty mount kits, anti-rattle latches, and load-rated lashing rings up to 400kg.
Other highlights include:
- ARB Summit Bull Bar for added strength and protection
- Warn Winch integrated behind the number plate
- Integrated Device Mounting System (IDMS) and top console mounts for seamless tech use
- Ready-made packs (Farm, Work, Adventure) with trays, bull bars, winches, and more
Accessory packs are priced from around $7,251 for a Work Pack Double Cab (Galvanised Tray) through to $21,294 for an Adventure Pack Single Cab (Matte Black Tray), depending on body style and configuration.
For fleets and business operators, the tray packs offer excellent value – until March 31, 2026, they come bundled with a toolbox and water tank. Individual accessories are also available, such as the ARB Rock Sliders ($2,095), roller shutters (from $3,355), and ARB air compressors ($1,201).
Built for the Job
“Ranger Super Duty customers demand the utmost in performance and reliability, and that extends to their accessories,” said Brad Hogg, Ford Customer Service Division. “Our new line of Ford Licensed Accessories offers a one-stop solution, with fully integrated products to prepare Ranger Super Duty for almost anything.”
With the official line-up of accessories, Ford has ensured every Ranger Super Duty can be tailored to its purpose, whether that’s farming, construction, or off-road adventure.
The Ranger Super Duty Cab-Chassis will go on sale in Australia in early 2026.

Fleet replacement planning is often treated as a timetable. An asset reaches a nominated age, records a certain number of kilometres or hours, and enters the replacement program.

The rapid arrival of new vehicle brands is changing the Australian market and putting pressure on established manufacturers to demonstrate why familiarity, dealer coverage and local support still matter.
