2022 Ford Bronco Rumors We have discovered new and enticing information since we first shared this feature in March. Among other things, it seems Bronco will actually be a sub-brand to Ford with a “baby ” Bronco based on the Ford Escape also joining the lineup. In addition, there is solid evidence to suggest the Bronco will arrive after a brand new pickup Ford F-150, and it all starts in January 2020. Read below to catch the details about these latest updates as well as everything else we currently know about the Bronco.

The fans have long been waiting for Ford to revive his famous nameplate Bronco. He may have left the market in 1996, but he never really left the hearts of the passionate people who loved him. In 2020, we will see a whole new version; Ford confirmed at the 2017 Detroit Auto Show that the iconic SUV will be back on the market in just a few years, and would be produced locally at the Ford Michigan assembly plant.

Like Jeep Wrangler and many other good off-roaders before him, Ford says the new Bronco will be a true, uncompromising, Body-Mount 4×4 to capture some of the toughest terrains. It will come with features like full front and rear axles, and an “air roof”; “Ford describing it as an uncompromising average 4×4 utility for thrill seekers who want to venture far beyond the city.” “But it can not get a two-door option.

According to Raj Nair, product development Manager, he would share his frame with the Ranger pickup, which debuted earlier this year. With the Jeep Wrangler switching to aluminum for 2018, we assume that the Bronco will do the same (like the F-150) in an attempt to keep things light.

Update: We also learned that in addition to a Bronco-based ranger, Ford builds a smaller model that is thought to be based on the Ford Escape. Images flowing would have shown the model as presented at a dealership meeting in October, showing a square-ish SUV with a smaller body than the official Bronco teaser image below. Ford requested that we delete the photos of Motor1.com, which gives credence to the photos being legitimate.

Well, we’re not really sure. Our initial rendering proposed a Raptor-based design, but other rumors, through Reddit (via Road & Track), suggested that the Bronco could be “very similar to the current Ford Everest,” apart from a minor facelift. The Everest, you may remember, is a five-door SUV based on the outgoing Ranger platform that is currently available in markets outside the United States.

But after seeing the new Bronco under a leaf at the recent Ford press event (pictured above), we’re not so sure anymore.

The overall style seems to be much boxier than the Everest-even more incisive than our Raptor-based rendering. A tapered roof and a rear-mounted spare wheel give the Bronco a striking resemblance to the Jeep Wrangler – at least as far as we can tell. This form also shares a number of similarities with the Brazilian Ford controller, which was also suggested as a source of inspiration for the final look.

Our best guess is that Ford will probably drop an EcoBoost engine in the new Bronco Bay. As a result, the company put another one in the Raptor off-roader and the GT supercar. It should produce somewhere on 325 horsepower (242 kilowatts) and pump a good amount of torque – Ranger Raptor produces 369 pounds-feet (500 Newton meters) for its value. We will cross our fingers for a new diesel engine, as introduced in the Ranger, but Ford will leave Duratorq for more than 10 years.

The ranger and Bronco will be produced at the Ford plant in Wayne, Michigan, but Australia is where most of the engineering and development will take place, particularly at the Ford Asia-Pacific Engineering Center in Victoria. The new Ranger has also been developed underneath, and given the fact that they both share a shortened version of the T6 platform, we expect the Bronco to have almost the same features – if not more.

With current conversion rates, the Australian Ford Everest market will cost around $ 40,000 in the United States. Given the fact that production will move to Michigan and its relative rivals like Wrangler and 4Runner are close to $ 35, we expect the Bronco to be roughly the same for the low price in the mid-30s.
