With a tough and rugged Built Wild™ durability and technological prowess, Bronco is a fusion of retro form and modern function, giving novice adventurers and experts alike smooth and long-lasting performance to experience wild places anytime, anywhere.  

“Bronco’s advanced four-wheel-drive technology is at the core of its off-road capabilities, and at the heart of it all is Bronco’s exclusive Terrain Management System™ with G.O.A.T. Modes™ that is designed to help drivers better navigate any type of terrain,” said Mark Grueber, Bronco consumer marketing manager, in a press release. 

The SUV, reminiscent of the classic Bronco models from the 1960s and 70s, comes in a two and four-door configuration with a high-strength steel structure and suspension travel that allows for an exciting open-air experience. The two-door model features a standard three-section roof system with a quick release stowable roof panel, while the four-door has four removable sections. The vehicle offers hard and soft top options and provides an 11.6-inch ground clearance, a 29-degree break-over angle, a 37.2-degree departure angle, and a water fording capability of up to 33.5 inches. The front and rear come with exposed tow hooks and heavy-duty steel bumpers, along with the optional winch mount.

Inside the sophisticated interior, the instrument panel – inspired by the first-generation model – provides instinctual gauges and controls coupled with a 12-inch SYNC® 4 system multifunction color LCD with wireless updates and integration with the FordPass Performance app for off-road navigation. The SYNC system allows drivers to easily plan, navigate, and share adventures; it displays 360-degree off-road views for additional visibility during activities like rock crawling.

Drivers can choose from the eight G.O.A.T. Modes: Normal, Eco, Sport, Sand, and Slippery for standard driving, and Baja, Mud/Ruts, and Rock Crawl for off-roading. The Trail Toolbox gives off-roaders additional utilities for a smoother experience. Trail Control lets you cruise on low-speed trail driving, Trail Turn Assist reduces the off-road turning radius through torque vectoring, and the Trail One-Pedal Drive (with the braking/acceleration found in most electric cars) makes for more precise slow-mode rock crawling. Bronco’s trail mapping system works on and offline, providing topographic trail and curated map content from NeoTreks’ AccuTerra® Maps, Trails Offroad trail guides and FunTreks trail guides, to make off-roading as seamless as possible.
