Bronco looks OK you don’t have to buy the high end dream for regular driving a little bit then the weekend fun it’s OK you don’t spend thousands and thousands like somebody put Porsche McKahn versus Bronco this this time you talking difference between $70, 000 and Ford parts Very cheap brand new ones you buy it from the dealer something happened and you continue keep going. They have a good variety to warranty. good job Food keep going you don’t you don’t have to spend $100, 000 for car like this from Germany. It’s not worth it. Most of the people doesn’t have a budget for the Porsche it’s OK so this is a good alternative for the bronco sport or or Bronco big boy but the only thing is the Toyota sequoia tundra. Land Cruiser Lexus gs. RAV4 is coming next couple months I’m gonna be hit the Bronco need to give people good price to buy it

Everything about the Bronco Sport is cool, like always Ford's product team nails it, BUT, it's a cheap Ford model, which unfortunately means it LITERALLY falls apart within years. I used to work for a major supplier for Ford, and let me tell you. you wouldn't belive how cheap some of the components are, and how much lack of care there is at Ford after the product is approved, and that was for high-end Ford/Lincoln vehicles. These cheap entry-level Fords are absolute junk, and you can tell by the plastics and metal panels alone.

You looks like you not feel comfortable driving this car in this dunes and in the rocky areas just next time prepare better to show people how discouraged can drive and they’re very harsh Desert dunes one thing which one is very important. You don’t say it would describe your bumpers and equipment added to this Bronco the heavy weight for 2 L turbo how many gallons for 100 miles you have to spend I bet you’re 15 1617 that’s gotta make it worse. Lower by 20 is not good

This seems like a good compromise. The twin-clutch rear-end sounds good. It still looks somewhat front-heavy and has more front overhang than rear, which bugs me; it still looks like a front-driver. You never mentioned mpg.
The interior looks cheap, and as always, Ford is scared to death of actual seat side-bolsters. Hate the shifter.
Really wish someone would do a compact off-roader on a RWD platform.

Love the review. Lookin at the Outer Banks but not with Sasquatch. Q. Is it worth saving some $ for a 2-3 yr used model vs. brand new I see that interest rates are higher for used, so maybe it's better to save with a brand new model along with the new Employee Discount What do you all think Also wish they had a hybrid, but not sure if I want to wait 2 years from what I'm hearing.

Good review. I like the Bronco Sport and cross shopped it before buying a Subaru Crosstrek Sport. I don't offroad and the Crosstrek is cheaper unless you go 1. 5L 3-cylinder turbo on the Bronco Sport. Both are practical on the inside, but Crosstrek has a better projected reliability rating. Win either way, just depends what you are looking for.

You can make a pretty good damage driving up like you make it. Oh that was somebody else driving probably make us use your sign the warranty and if something happens in the paperwork probably is probably you buy insurance for this kind of driving you don’t wanna spend money from your pocket if you damage your car ha ha ha ha

$47, 385 for a Badlands with Sasquatch! Are you crazy endorsing a poorly built, overpriced, cheap quality, cheap plastic interior Ford crap like this How much is Ford paying you off! Does this come with cocaine in the back like the former Ford Fusion did (formerly built in Mexico) Way overpriced Ford junk.

I wonder what all that extra cladding weight does to fuel economy. Just wish this had a plug-in hybrid. The 2L has terrible fuel economy compared to a RAV4 hybrid. Given their costs are close to the same. No one serious about off-roading is getting this so it’s a mall crawler or park parking car at best.

If Ford wants to sell me a 42k car, it can't have the cheap interior quality of a 20 year old KIA. A Crosstrek Wilderness is barely over 32k and you can easily buy all the skid plates for it for another 1k, and have basically the same package with a proven, reliable drivetrain.

If you live in the cratered rds of the northeast. The off road capabilities comes in handy. Mine is a wash board combined with frost heaves & construction patched.
Anything with less than 6 inches ground clearance is in danger of ripping off something.

Honestly for an offroad oriented vehicle I am content with the regular tail lights. If by the odd chance the housing is busted the cost difference between those housings will be substantial.

Actually surprised by the relatively small amount of updates for the refresh of the Bronco Sport. I suppose if you have a design that works, and is selling, not much need to update it.

I have a 2022 Badlands. Great thing is I can park it just about anywhere. Plus, the small size makes it very maneuverable on trails, makes its easier to pick lines or turn around.

At about 12 seconds in, your on-screen tagline calls it the Bronso! That said, you produce the most comprehensive, entertaining, & non-annoying road tests out there!

Not having a hybrir is a huge miss. The electric torque would negate the need for a low range and the control it would offer would beat anything a geared trans could do.

With these press days set up by the companies I always wonder would driving like this actually void the warranty if you actually owned the car

So many bots! Love to see the automotive journalists having fun rock climbing and baja bashing in the desert. The giggles are tremendous.

Dunno about the 1. 5L pushing these big wheels around. Would not be my choice if you consider keeping the Bronco Sport for the long run.

The Land Rover kinked roof designs goes back to the original Land Rovers that became the Defenders. It has NOTHING to do with Ford.
