The next Ford Ranger.

From the rear it looks similar to the current F-150 but maybe a
bit
smaller. Any news of it's powertrain yet?

Probably not much more than the 2.7L EcoBoost. I doubt it will see
the
3.5L.

To compete with Toyota and Chevy, the new Ranger likely will be
available with a four banger of about 2.5 liters, and a V6 of
about 3.5
liters.

I'd love to see a small 2 liter (or thereabouts) turbo diesel
developed
for it.
As weird as the "truck" business is these days they might make one
with the Coyote 5.0 LTi-VCT V8 in it.
I don't know how well this will format but the numbers on the HO 3.5L
EcoBoost are far better than the 5.0. Very unexpected.

The formatting makes it difficult to line up (on my screen anyway) but
for a truck I am most interested in the torque ratings. Why is the
3.5L EcoBoost V6 listed twice?
The last is the HO (I guess high-output). The torque is 510@3500rpm vs
387@3850 in the 5.0L. I tried to reformat them.
