Hypothetical, do you think a petrol Raptor is going to get less than 400km a tank in normal driving? If it's an 80L tank that's 20L/100km all the time as a minimum, not as an average.
I already said it will get 500 to a tank if using the same size tank, thing is, thats conservative driving using JPD's comparison of Explorer ST with Raptor weight and wheels added.
Its marketed as a performance package so as the peddle goes lower to access that so too will the km/litre.
It cant tow over 2.5t and has no V8 soundtrack, unless you want a Ford product there are better bang for buck options, thats all.

And the size thing is a weak argument, plenty of people live with and park the full sized utes everyday, infact, if Ford released F trucks here you'd never see it mentioned on this forum again.
