Ford has launched the Ranger Black Edition

Europe's most popular pick-up is currently the Ford Ranger, but achieving that feat hasn't prevented the arrival of a Black Edition to secure some extra sales.

This special version – which is only available in Double Cab guise – comes with Absolute Black paintwork. There's also a matching black finish for the wheels, front grille and load-bed sports bar.

It's based on the existing Limited trim grade, so the standard specification already includes cruise control, rear parking sensors, leather upholstery, heated front seats, a power-adjustable driver's seat, dual-zone climate control and a touchscreen-controlled infotainment system.

In addition, the Black Edition gains front parking sensors, a rear-view camera and satellite navigation.

Production will be limited to 2,500 examples.

Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
