US auto major Ford's pick-up truck - Ford Ranger - was spotted at Jayem Automotives' Coimbatore facility this week. The spy shots, published on some auto portals, showed the semi-finished products being transported from Coimbatore to Chennai. 

The photographs showed prototypes, semi-finished products parked at the Jayem facility and semi-finished products being transported from the facility to Chennai.

Sources said that in its right-hand-driven form, the Ford Ranger is manufactured at the Auto Alliance plant in Thailand. The vehicle is essentially the Ford Endeavour platform and Ford could be planning to make India the export hub for the pick-up truck.
