How do you feel about the baby bronc? Really like the shape from the spy shots in factory and the leaked photo from that Ford event a while back. My only hope is that its not ridiculously smaller than the big bronco. I mean its still gotta have some beefy-ness and handling chops to be able to hold the Bronco name.The CAD drawings I was speaking about before are for the Baby Bronco..
That would be intriguing. But my wife already has doubts about the BroncoBronco being too small after checking out the inside of a crew cab Ranger.I am willing to look at the Baby Bronco - but only if it offers a manual tranny - and so far no one on here has even given a glimmer of hope of that.![]()
Thats my concern. Not really interested in a Bronco Rav4. Considering they plan on a whole line of Bronco branded vehicles maybe a Bronco Explorer would be more around what I want size wiseThat would be intriguing.

I know I'm bringing up old posts, but one thing I will point out there is that you posted pictures of all the halo/performance models, which look much more aggressive than the standard modelsI guess here’s my real problem other than the length: where’s the aggression? Modern vehicle styling is aggressive to say the least, but Ford’s is especially so. One of these things is not like the others:

Bronco is a part of the halo models. The Ford “Icons” (actual ford term for it.) is Mustang, Raptor, and Bronco.I know I'm bringing up old posts, but one thing I will point out there is that you posted pictures of all the halo/performance models, which look much more aggressive than the standard models
F-150 is the Icon, not the Raptor specifically. And regular models are certainly not as aggressive as Raptor. Same with GT500 and Mustang - the Mustang, while a sports car and is naturally aggressive, is nowhere near as aggressive as the GT500.Bronco is a part of the halo models. The Ford “Icons” (actual ford term for it.) is Mustang, Raptor, and Bronco.
True, though not all mustangs have a hyper-aggressive face, and the Raptor is the halo of the F150 model, which are also not generally as aggressive. There may yet be a 'halo' Bronco model like the GT500Bronco is a part of the halo models. The Ford “Icons” (actual ford term for it.) is Mustang, Raptor, and Bronco.
I think they'd be stupid not to if they want to compete with the Wrangler Rubicon and 4Runner TRD Pro. IMO I think its kinda a given that there will be a Bronco Raptor or Bronco R (would much rather see them use the Bronco R title to tie back into the Baja Prototype, but thats just me). But then again, who knows.True, though not all mustangs have a hyper-aggressive face, and the Raptor is the halo of the F150 model, which are also not generally as aggressive.

So my point is, the "regular" Broncos won't be ultra aggressive like the ones you posted, but a Bronco Raptor would be. I also don't think the real thing/regular model will be as soft looking as some of these renderings.

Again, you're passing judgment on a heavily camo'ed model where we can't make out any of the details that would make it look more aggressive. Wait until it's revealed and then judge.https://carbuzz.com/news/ford-s-mustang-inspired-suv-finally-has-a-likely-reveal-date
“Ford's Mustang-inspired SUV will form part of Ford's new Icons Group that will design models associated with historic names like the Mustang, Raptor and Bronco. "We're rallying the company around the iconic products," said Amy Marentic, director, regional product line management at Ford Icons.”
The Mach E is pretty aggressive too. Even the non-GT.

Never said anything about the prototypes not being aggressive I said the renders we’ve been seeing aren’t near aggressive enough.Again, you're passing judgment on a heavily camo'ed model where we can't make out any of the details that would make it look more aggressive.
