2026 Ford Bronco vs. Toyota 4Runner | John Kennedy Ford

2026 Ford Bronco vs. Toyota 4Runner: Which Off-Roader Wins? The Ford Bronco and Toyota 4Runner are two of the most respected names in true, body-on-frame off-roading. Both are built to handle serious trails, both offer genuine 4x4 hardware rather than just SUV styling, and both have earned loyal followings. But they take real differences in approach when it comes to versatility, power, and everyday usability. Here's a full breakdown from the team at John Kennedy Ford of Feasterville to help you decide which off-roader is right for you. Quick Comparison: 2026 Bronco vs. 2026 4Runner Starting MSRP — Bronco: $40,495 | 4Runner: $41,570 Standard Engine — Bronco: 2.3L EcoBoost Turbo I4, 300 hp / 325 lb-ft | 4Runner: 2.4L i-FORCE Turbo I4, 278 hp / 317 lb-ft Top Available Engine — Bronco Raptor: 3.0L Twin-Turbo V6, 418 hp | 4Runner i-FORCE MAX Hybrid: 326 hp / 465 lb-ft Doors and Roof — Bronco: removable doors and roof, hardtop or soft top | 4Runner: fixed doors and roof, not removable Max Towing — Bronco: up to 4,500 lbs (Raptor) | 4Runner: up to 6,000 lbs Max Cargo Volume (4-door) — Bronco: up to 146.5 cu ft | 4Runner: up to 90.2 cu ft Transmission — Bronco: 7-speed manual (with crawler gear) or 10-speed automatic | 4Runner: 8-speed automatic only Seating — Bronco: up to 5 (2-door or 4-door) | 4Runner: up to 7 (third row available on select trims) Trim Levels — Bronco: 7 trims | 4Runner: 9 trims The Bronco's Signature Advantage: Removable Doors and Roof This is the single biggest difference between these two SUVs, and it's not close. Every 2026 Bronco offers removable doors and a removable roof, whether you choose the soft top or hardtop, giving you a genuine open-air off-roading experience the 4Runner simply can't match. The 4Runner's doors and roof are fixed, full stop — no configuration or trim level changes that. For buyers who want the true Jeep-and-Bronco-style open-air adventure vehicle experience, this alone can be the deciding factor. Power, Space, and Everyday Practicality Every 2026 Bronco comes standard with a turbocharged 2.3L four-cylinder producing 300 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque, edging out the 4Runner's standard 2.4L turbo, which makes 278 hp and 317 lb-ft. The Bronco also offers something the 4Runner doesn't: a genuine 7-speed manual transmission with a dedicated crawler gear, for drivers who want full mechanical control on the trail. And when it comes to cargo, the four-door Bronco's 146.5 cubic feet of maximum space is dramatically larger than the 4Runner's 90.2 cubic feet — a real advantage for hauling gear, camping equipment, or a Costco run. To Be Fair: Where the 4Runner Holds Its Own The 4Runner isn't just riding on Toyota's reputation. It can tow up to 6,000 lbs, well ahead of the Bronco's 4,500-lb maximum (available only on the Raptor), making it the better choice for buyers who regularly tow campers, boats, or heavy trailers. The 4Runner also offers a genuine hybrid option in the i-FORCE MAX (326 hp / 465 lb-ft), available third-row seating for up to 7 passengers, and dedicated overlanding trims like the Trailhunter, which comes with an ARB roof rack, onboard air compressor, and Old Man Emu shocks straight from the factory. With nine trims to the Bronco's seven, the 4Runner also offers a bit more granularity in configuration and price point. The Verdict Both of these off-roaders are genuinely excellent, and the right choice depends on what kind of adventure you're after. For buyers who want the true open-air experience with removable doors and roof, more standard horsepower, a manual transmission option, and significantly more cargo space, the 2026 Ford Bronco comes out ahead. The 4Runner remains a strong pick for buyers who prioritize maximum towing capacity, third-row seating, or factory-ready overlanding gear, but if you want the SUV that can transform from daily driver to true open-air trail rig, the Bronco is hard to beat.

What's New for the 2026 Ford Bronco?

The 2026 Ford Bronco rolls in with some changes that solidify its spot as a top pick for trail lovers and weekend warriors. The new model brings meaningful improvements to this rugged SUV while keeping the tough, capable spirit that made the Ford Bronco name legendary in the first place. more New Bronco Inventory What's Changed for the 2026 Ford Bronco While the new model has kept most of the same features for 2026, you'll see a few notable differences. To celebrate the Bronco's 60th birthday, Ford has released a special red and white 60th Anniversary Edition. This package also includes unique 60th badging and logos to match the theme. This visual update makes the 2026 model stand out on the road without losing that classic Bronco character. On all trims, the SYNC 5 system now comes standard, with faster processing, wireless connections, and over-air updates to keep things current. Plus, every model now comes with A-pillar grab handles, first seen on the 60th Anniversary Package. Some models got shuffled around too. The Stroppe Edition switched from two-door only to four-door only. 2026 Ford Bronco Release Date and Availability If you want to order one, you can start picking colors, packages, and options right now. Jumping in early usually means better color selection and quicker delivery when trucks start rolling off the line. At John Kennedy Ford Feasterville, we offer a wide selection of Broncos with options ranging from trail-ready packages to comfort extras that make daily driving around Pennsylvania more pleasant. 2026 Ford Bronco Pricing Updates Prices didn't change much this year, with small increases across most models. The Base now starts at $40,495, up $500 from last year's $39,995. The Big Bend goes up slightly to $40,995 from $40,845. Midrange options include the Outer Banks at $48,090 — previously $47,940 — and the Badlands, actually dropping to $48,890 from $49,585. The Heritage Edition will set you back $51,625, a tiny $150 increase. If you're eyeing the Stroppe Edition, it's actually cheaper this year. This high-performance Bronco costs nearly $6,000 less, now $69,995, down from $75,635 last year. The top-tier 2026 Ford Bronco Raptor stays the same at $79,995. These adjustments mean good value across the board, with some models actually becoming more affordable. Each price level gives you solid bang for your buck with standard gear and options you can mix and match to fit your needs. From basic trail-ready models to fully-loaded beasts, you'll find something that fits your budget in the new Bronco lineup without breaking the bank. New Colors and Exterior Updates Some familiar paints — Eruption Green Metallic, Azure Gray Metallic Tri-Coat, and Robin's Egg Blue — are all gone, but you've still got plenty of choices to match your style. In their place, Wimbledon White for the 60th Anniversary Package and Avalanche join the color chart. On four-door Badlands models, you can now mix body colors with different roof colors for a total of 37 possible combinations. If you want a blue body with a black roof or maybe tan with a body-colored top, you can make the Bronco truly yours, standing out both on Feasterville trails and in parking lots. The Heritage Edition adds Marsh Gray and Oxford White to its color options, too. Beyond just paint, there are other exterior tweaks. Though they look pretty much the same, the wheels on Sasquatch Package Broncos are now called Matte Black Alloy instead of Carbonized Gray Alloy. 2026 Ford Bronco Interior Updates Inside, the biggest upgrade is the new SYNC 5 system that's about twice as fast as the old SYNC 4, thanks to a beefier processor. It works with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so you can ditch the cables. The 12-inch screen responds faster and can get updates wirelessly to add new features in the future. Those new A-pillar grab handles might seem small, but they make a big difference when climbing in and out of the Bronco. These will help after a day on muddy trails when boots and hands aren't exactly clean. It's a simple addition that makes sense for a vehicle built for adventure. Not all changes are additions, though. Rear carpet floor mats are gone from Outer Banks and Badlands trims, and you can't get the universal garage door opener anymore. Despite these small losses, the cabin still focuses on the toughness and practicality that Bronco fans expect. Better materials and sound dampening make everyday drives more comfortable, whether you're commuting or heading to the campsite. Performance and Mechanical Updates Both engines got tweaks for better response and efficiency. The 2.3-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost still pumps out 300 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. Upgrade to the 2.7-liter V-6, and you'll get 330 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque. Ford adjusted both engines to feel more responsive and sip less fuel. Badlands models get a revised Goes Over Any Type of Terrain, or G.O.A.T., Modes system with Normal, ECO, Slippery, Off-Road, Sport, Rock-Crawl, and Baja. This replaces the old Mud/Ruts and Sand settings and adds Sport mode for better on-road fun. Heritage Edition buyers can now pair the 10-speed automatic transmission with the smaller 2.3-liter engine instead of being forced into the 2.7-liter. Towing stays at 3,500 pounds, which is enough for most small trailers and boats. The famous Sasquatch Package keeps its crown for off-road capability with massive 35-inch mud tires, 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels, and lifted suspension with Bilstein shocks. This gives you 11.6 inches of ground clearance with approach angles of 43.2 degrees and departure angles of 37.2 degrees. You'll appreciate these upgrades when the trail gets rough. Experience the 2026 Ford Bronco at Ford of Feasterville The 2026 Bronco builds on what was already a good off-road SUV. With pricing remaining similar to last year, these updates make a strong case for buyers who want serious capability without giving up modern comforts. If you're a collector, don't miss the opportunity to get the limited 60th Anniversary Edition.

At the top of the line, the Raptor boasts 13.1 inches of ground clearance and a 3.0L EcoBoost V-6 engine. Comparative Analysis: Ford Bronco vs. Competitors Now that you know some of the Bronco's key specs, let's see how it compares to some of its rivals. Ford Bronco vs. Jeep Wrangler and Toyota 4Runner The base Ford Bronco's MSRP starts a bit higher than Jeep Wrangler's $32,690 entry point; however, the Toyota 4Runner's base model comes in at $40,770. For the highest trim, the Bronco Raptor begins at $79,995, saving you a lot compared to the Wrangler Rubicon 392 Final Edition's $100,590 price tag. Reliability-wise, the Ford and Jeep are neck and neck, according to J.D. Power: the Bronco scores 77 out of 100 and the Wrangler gets 80 out of 100. The 4Runner received 80 out of 100, but it does come at a higher starting price point. The Ford offers significantly more room for your gear than the Jeep. The four-door Bronco gives you 35.6 cubic feet behind the back seats and 77.6 cubic feet with them folded — beating Wrangler's 31.7 and 72.4 cubic feet. Even the two-door Bronco maxes out at 52.3 cubic feet, leaving the two-door Wrangler's 31.7 cubic feet in the dust. The 4Runner gives you a little more, with a max of 90.2 cubic feet in the two-row model, decreasing to 84.4 cubic feet with a third row. At the pump, the base 2025 Bronco's manual transmission gets up to 18 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the highway, while the manual Wrangler's base V-6 manages 17 mpg in the city and 23 mpg highway. The base Toyota 4Runner offers 20 mpg in the and 24 mpg on the highway, but it doesn't have a manual option. Ford Bronco vs. Ford Bronco Sport Don't mix up the Bronco with its little brother, the Bronco Sport. The big Bronco is a midsize SUV built on the Ranger truck platform, while the Sport is a compact crossover sharing its platform with the Escape. You can get the full-size Bronco as a two-door or four-door with an available manual transmission and powerful V-6 options. The Bronco Sport only comes as a four-door with a choice of two turbo four-cylinders. The full-size Bronco sports an old-school, rugged style with an interior built for mud and dirt. The Bronco Sport has a more modern, sleek look with car-like comfort and tech that's perfect for daily drives with weekend adventures mixed in. The Bronco Sport earned both a Top Safety Pick+ from the IIHS in 2022 and five stars from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, landing it among 2025's safest small SUVs. That's great news for families who want some off-road fun without sacrificing protection. Pricing and Value Considerations The price of a 2025 Bronco depends on the trim you choose. Here's a listing of its trims and their respective starting prices: Base: $38,995 Big Bend: $41,220 Outer Banks: $47,940 Heritage Edition: $49,475 Badlands: $50,385 Stroppe Edition: $75,635 Raptor: $79,995 While some of these trims represent a significant investment, you'll be getting serious hardware that can take on the best in its class. Ford backs your new Bronco with three-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and five-year/60,000-mile powertrain coverage. Ford's been beating Toyota and Honda in J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study, suggesting solid Bronco reliability. According to CarEdge, these rigs hold onto about 57% of their value after five years. Most new cars only keep 44.6% in the same timeframe, as reported by MarketWatch, so the Bronco's doing much better than average. Kelley Blue Book gave the Bronco its Best Resale Value Award in the Off-Road SUV Category for 2024. That strong resale value means you'll get more back when it's time to trade up. Combined with Ford's solid J.D. Power quality scores, Bronco owners can expect reliable performance and strong trade-in values down the road. That's good news for your investment over time. If you're not ready to budget for a brand new vehicle, check our used vehicle deals.

Ford Bronco vs. Jeep Wrangler: The Ultimate Off-Road Showdown

When it comes to off-road vehicles, two names stand out: the Ford Bronco and the Jeep Wrangler. Both 2024 models are designed to conquer rugged terrains and offer an exhilarating driving experience. Below, we'll delve into a detailed comparison of these iconic vehicles, ultimately showcasing why the Ford Bronco is the superior choice. more New Ford Broncos Ford SUVs Call Us! Historical Background The Ford Bronco made its debut in 1966 as a response to the growing popularity of off-road vehicles. It quickly became a favorite among adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts. After a hiatus, the Bronco was reintroduced in 2021, maintaining its rugged charm while incorporating modern technology. The Jeep Wrangler's history dates back to World War II, originating from the military Willys MB. The Wrangler was officially introduced to the public in 1986, becoming synonymous with off-road capability and a symbol of freedom and adventure. Exterior Design and Features The 2024 Ford Bronco boasts a bold and aggressive exterior design that captures its off-road prowess. It features a boxy silhouette, removable doors, and a roof that offers a customizable open-air experience. The Bronco's front end is characterized by its signature round headlights and distinctive contemporary grille. In contrast, the 2024 Jeep Wrangler retains its classic, rugged look with round headlights and a seven-slot grille. While the Wrangler's design is iconic, it lacks the modern flair seen in the Bronco. The Bronco also offers more exterior customization options, allowing owners to tailor their vehicles to their preferences. Interior Comfort and Technology Inside, the 2024 Ford Bronco excels with a spacious, well-appointed cabin. It features high-quality materials, comfortable seating, and an intuitive layout. The Bronco's infotainment system is powered by the latest SYNC 4 technology, offering a large touch screen, smartphone integration, and advanced navigation features. The Jeep Wrangler, while functional, falls short in terms of interior comfort and technology. The cabin is more utilitarian, and its infotainment system, though improved, doesn't match the Bronco's sophistication. The Bronco also provides more space for passengers and cargo, making it a more practical choice for long adventures. Performance and Engine Options The 2024 Ford Bronco offers a range of powerful engines to suit different driving needs. The base engine is a 2.3-liter turbocharged I-4, producing 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. For those seeking even more power, there's a 2.7-liter V-6 engine available, delivering 330 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque, along with a twin-turbo 3.0L V6 that produces around 418 horsepower. The Jeep Wrangler has a few more powertrain options. A base 3.6-liter V-6 produces 285 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque. Additionally, a turbocharged 2.0-liter I-4 is available, generating 270 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. Besides those two primary options, there are a 3.6-liter V-6 with a hybrid-assist, a 3.0-liter diesel V-6, a 375-hp plug-in hybrid 4xe powertrain, and a 6.4-liter V-8 available. This last option produces around 470 horsepower, topping the Bronco. Another area where the Wrangler excels over the Bronco is fuel efficiency. While both models average around 20 mpg in mixed driving scenarios, the Wrangler offers a 4xe plug-in hybrid powertrain in addition to its gas-powered models. With the plug-in hybrid model, you can get around 21 miles per electric charge without needing the engine, then 20 mpg after that. This means that many drivers could make their daily commute or run weekend errands without using gasoline, potentially offering significant savings. Off-Road Capability Off-road capability is where both vehicles shine, but the 2024 Ford Bronco edges out the competition. The Bronco features a sophisticated terrain management system with seven G.O.A.T., or Goes Over Any Type of Terrain, modes. These modes allow for tackling various terrains with ease. It also boasts advanced off-road technologies such as Trail Control and a front stabilizer bar disconnect. The Jeep Wrangler is renowned for its off-road prowess, featuring solid axles, high ground clearance, and impressive approach and departure angles. However, the Bronco's modern off-road features and superior handling make it the better choice for tackling challenging trails and rugged landscapes. Safety and Reliability Safety is paramount in any vehicle. The 2024 Ford Bronco excels in this area, coming equipped with advanced safety features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency braking. The Bronco's robust construction and modern safety technologies provide peace of mind on and off the road. The Jeep Wrangler also offers a suite of safety features, but it doesn't match the Bronco's comprehensive safety package. Additionally, the Bronco has a reputation for reliability and durability, ensuring it remains a dependable companion for years to come. Pricing and Value The 2024 Ford Bronco is competitively priced, offering excellent value for its features and capabilities. Its starting MSRP of $39,630 is higher than the Wrangler's at $31,995, but the Bronco's superior technology, comfort, and performance justify the investment. The Jeep Wrangler is known for its affordability, but its lower base price comes with compromises in terms of features and refinement. For example, the base two-door Bronco is more similar to the Wrangler Sport S, which starts at $35,595 MSRP. However, the Bronco's four-door base model starts at $39,870 MSRP, while the four-door Wrangler Sport S is more expensive with a starting MSRP of $40,690. When considering the overall value, the Bronco provides a more well-rounded and satisfying ownership experience. Customer Reviews and Ratings Both the 2024 Ford Bronco and the 2024 Jeep Wrangler have received positive reviews. The Ford Bronco has a rating of 7.9/10 from Edmunds and a 9.5/10 rating from Car and Driver. The Jeep Wrangler, on the other hand, has a rating of 7.8/10 from Edmunds and a 7.5/10 rating from Car and Driver. Taken together, the Ford Bronco is the better-rated option. A Well-Rounded Driving Experience In the ultimate off-road showdown between the 2024 Ford Bronco and the 2024 Jeep Wrangler, the Bronco emerges as the superior vehicle. With its striking design, advanced technology, powerful engines, and exceptional off-road capability, the Bronco offers a well-rounded and thrilling driving experience.

2024 Ford Bronco vs. Jeep Wrangler: Battle of the Titans

The off-road vehicle market has long been a battleground for automotive supremacy, with manufacturers vying for the top spot. At the forefront of this rugged competition are two legendary icons: the Ford Bronco and the Jeep Wrangler. These iconic nameplates have earned their place in the hearts of outdoor enthusiasts and off-roading enthusiasts. Boasting robust four-wheel-drive systems, high ground clearance, and advanced traction control, the Bronco and Wrangler are both capable of conquering even the toughest terrain. The rivalry between these off-road behemoths has intensified in 2024, with both Ford and Jeep releasing highly anticipated updated versions of their iconic vehicles. Both vehicles now offer a compelling mix of rugged capability, cutting-edge technology, and extensive customization options, making the choice between them even more difficult. Let's pit these two titans against each other in a head-to-head comparison to determine which off-road champion reigns supreme in 2024. more New Ford Broncos Ford SUVs Call Us! Exterior Design The 2024 Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler showcase distinctive exterior designs that blend heritage with modernity. Ford's approach strikes a balance between retro appeal and contemporary styling, offering a wide array of color options, wheel designs, and trim levels. The Bronco Raptor variant stands out with its eye-catching Code Orange package and fresh paint choices such as Shelter Green and Velocity Blue. The Jeep Wrangler maintains its iconic silhouette, largely unchanged since 1987, evoking its World War II predecessor, the Willys MB. Both rugged SUVs share a crucial feature: the ability to transform into open-air vehicles by removing their roofs and doors. This allows you to fully immerse yourself in your surroundings, whether navigating urban landscapes or conquering challenging off-road trails. While the Wrangler's exterior design remains loyal to its traditional roots, the Bronco's bold and more adventurous look sets it apart from its Jeep counterpart. These distinctly different approaches cater to diverse preferences in the off-road community, ensuring both vehicles retain their unique appeal in the competitive SUV market. Performance The Bronco engine lineup features the 2.3-liter EcoBoost churning out 300 horsepower, the 2.7-liter twin-turbo V-6 producing 330 horsepower, and the potent 3.0-liter twin-turbo  V-6 generating 418 horsepower in the Raptor. The Wrangler counters with a 3.6-liter V-6 offering 285 horsepower, a 2.0-liter turbo dishing out 270 horsepower, a turbocharged 3.0-liter diesel V-6 delivering 260 horsepower, a robust 6.4-liter V-8 producing 470 horsepower, and a 4xe plug-in hybrid delivering 375 horsepower. The Bronco excels on paved roads with responsive handling and a smooth ride, while the Wrangler, though less refined on pavement, compensates with raw power in its V-8 configuration. Both vehicles excel off the beaten path, demonstrating their prowess in conquering challenging terrains. The Bronco features four-wheel drive with an advanced Terrain Management System and G.O.A.T Modes. The Wrangler's Command-Trac four-wheel-drive system has a low-range crawl ratio of 2.72:1, which is ideal for extreme off-roading. Either of these vehicles is perfect, depending on whether you prioritize on-road performance or off-road capability. Interior Comfort and Features The Bronco features spacious front seats and a high-tech SYNC 4 system with a 12-inch screen. This setup includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, built-in maps, and a terrain system with seven driving modes. The Wrangler's 2024 update includes a standard Uconnect 5 NAV 12.3-inch touch-screen display, matching the Bronco's tech offerings. In terms of passenger space, the four-door Wrangler is slightly larger, with 108.2 cubic feet, compared to the Bronco's 104 cubic feet. The Bronco stands out with unique features such as Off-Road Hero Switches for quick access to off-road functions. It also excels in cargo capacity, with four-door models offering 35.6 cubic feet behind the back seats, which expands to 83 cubic feet with the seats folded. The Wrangler offers 31.7 and 72.4 cubic feet, respectively. The Bronco offers a modern interior design, combining comfort and ruggedness. The Wrangler's interior is more simplistic, with a focus on classic off-road appeal. While both offer comfortable, functional cabins, the Bronco's modern touches, spaciousness, and unique features give it an edge over the Wrangler. Safety The Bronco comes standard with Ford's Co-Pilot360, a suite of safety technologies that include a rearview camera, automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, and blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert. The Wrangler only offers automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control as standard in higher trims. Other advanced safety features are available as optional upgrades. Customization Options Both the Bronco and Wrangler offer numerous customization options, allowing you to personalize your ride to suit your needs and lifestyle. The Bronco's lineup includes specialized trims such as the water-fording Everglades and high-speed Raptor, as well as nostalgic Heritage Editions. Jeep offers a range of trims, including the highly capable Rubicon models. Both vehicles provide a wide array of colors, wheel designs, and accessories for exterior customization. Interior customization is equally diverse for both models, with options for luxurious seating materials, premium sound systems, and innovative storage solutions. The Bronco's Modular Top system allows for easy removal and replacement of roof panels, while the Wrangler offers a similar feature with its Freedom Top. Both vehicles also offer various door options, including full and half doors. Whether you need a practical daily driver or an adventurous off-roader, both the Bronco and Wrangler have customization options to meet your needs. Price and Value The Wrangler has a starting MSRP of $31,995, while the Bronco's starts at a higher base cost of $39,630. Despite this initial price gap, the Bronco provides better value through its more comprehensive standard feature set and increased horsepower in the base model. The higher trim levels of both vehicles become pricier, with fully equipped models costing upwards of $60,000. The choice between these off-road icons will come down to personal preference, budget considerations, and specific use rather than price alone.

Alternatively, you can choose between two twin-turbocharged V-6 engines: a 2.7L putting out 315 horsepower and a 3.0L churning out 418 horsepower. These larger engines are better suited for regular off-roaders, providing added capabilities when tackling obstacles and rough terrain. Features in Ford Bronco Seating The Bronco's seating configuration depends on whether you choose the two-door or four-door model. With two doors, the Bronco can seat up to four people. Opting for the larger four-door body style allows you to fit an extra passenger in the second row. The base seating setup includes vinyl upholstery, manually adjustable front seats, and a split folding rear seat. Moving up the trim ladder, you can get leather upholstery with vinyl accents and power-adjustable, heated front seats. The higher trims also offer full leather upholstery.

A rear-seat alert also reminds you to check the back seat for kids before you get out. You can add front and rear parking sensors and a surround-view parking camera to reduce the challenge of parking this SUV in a tight spot. Other optional features include blind-spot monitoring, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control. Performance and Handling The Bronco is at its best performance when the pavement ends. Its extensive off-roading equipment includes all-terrain tires, skid plates, off-roading suspension, and a two-speed transfer case. Depending on the trim you choose, you can opt for tires in different sizes. The much-coveted Raptor trim is equipped with heavy-duty skid plates for added protection.
