The ones on the Canadian website are some old discontinued model. The tires on the Bronco are brand new, that's why they're not anywhere on the internet.
The Wildtrak just has the Sasquatch package. There's nothing special about the suspension other than that. It's "high speed" because it has both Sport mode and Baja mode. The Badlands has Baja mode but not Sport mode, which it replaces with Rock Crawl mode.
The Badlands does not lose the sway...
Some highlights:
702 hp 650 torque
2.5" lift 35" Wrangler Territories
starting price $70,000
2021 ordering starts tomorrow
Bilstein active shocks - very similar to the Raptor
1300 lb payload, 8100 lb towing
Shots fired in the launch video, it had a clip from Jurassic Park of a T-Rex eating a Raptor
I assume it's on the old Ranger platform, meaning they'd have to redesign it anyway, and the Michigan plant doesn't have the capacity to build the Ranger, Bronco and Everest, the Bronco Sport will probably be a high volume small crossover, a diesel manual transmission small SUV would be super...
He did mention it in the same breathe as door handles and trail sights, which can only be different colors. I suppose it's possible you can buy sights and handles in white but not the roof, but that would be a bit goofy....
Yeah kinda like Camaro vs Mustang. Automotive press will compare them and people will argue about 0-60 and track times, but almost nobody buys one or the other based on that stuff. Brand loyalty, looks, prices, mpg, etc will always play a bigger role.
This is Raptor competitor rather than Bronco competitor, but Ram looks to be trying to steal some thunder from Ford with the reveal of the Ram TRX scheduled for tomorrow at noon, the day before the first press reviews of Bronco riding/driving impressions.
If you haven't heard, the TRX is a Ram...
It seems to me that other than logos and wheels/tires the Badlands and Black Diamond should look exactly the same. The red fishing rig should give you an idea what the stance will look like with 32" tires.
I'm sure we'll see real pictures eventually though. Seeing specific trims doesn't matter...
There was a multi-stage rollout that was meant to span several auto shows and events, and it all got blown up by Covid when everything got cancelled. They actually should have had vehicles prepared for that plan way before we actually saw anything, which just makes the fact that the first ones...
Interest in off roading, overlanding, outdoors-y stuff in general has enjoyed a spike in recent history. Last year Jeep sold like 225,000 Wranglers, but in the early 2000s they were selling less than 100k a year. The FJ mostly died from lack of interest, and Toyota was all but ready to kill the...
