Comparing ‘Bronco’ and ‘Bronco Sport’

Blog: Comparing ‘Bronco’ and ‘Bronco Sport’.

When Ford announced the return of the legendary Bronco, motoring enthusiasts were thrilled. But with the introduction of the Bronco Sport, many are asking: what’s the difference between these two giants? At Best Ford, we offer a detailed comparison to help you decide which is best for you.

Ford Bronco: The enhanced return of an icon

The new 2024 Ford Bronco is a mid-size SUV with a cutting-edge design that pays homage to the original 1960s model. It features a choice of three powerful engines ranging from 2.3L to 3.0L twin-turbocharged engines that generate more than 310 horsepower and a towing capacity of up to 4,500 pounds in its Raptor model.

Ford Bronco Sport: Adventure for all

The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport is a compact SUV with a modern, adventurous design. It offers two engine selections: a 1.5L EcoBoost® engine that generates 181 horsepower and a 2.0L EcoBoost® engine that generates 250 horsepower. This vehicle has a towing capacity of up to 2,200 pounds.

Comparison of two major Ford models:

• Off-road capability: The Bronco is the best choice for those looking for a vehicle with real off-road capability. Its beam-and-strut chassis, 4WD all-wheel-drive system with two-speed transfer case and off-road suspension make it ideal for tackling any terrain. The Bronco Sport, on the other hand, is designed primarily for on-road driving, although it offers an intelligent all-wheel-drive system with different driving modes.

• Interior space: The Bronco offers more interior space than the Bronco Sport, especially in the second row. This makes it a better choice for families or for those who need to transport many passengers frequently.

• Fuel Efficiency: The Bronco Sport offers better fuel economy than the Bronco. If fuel efficiency is a priority for you, the Bronco Sport is the better choice.

• Technology: Both vehicles offer a wide range of standard technology features, including Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™ and FordPass Connect™. However, the Bronco offers some additional features, such as a larger touchscreen and premium sound system.

• Price: The Bronco has a higher starting price than the Bronco Sport. However, the Bronco also offers more standard features, such as a moonroof and a premium sound system.

Both the Ford Bronco and Ford Bronco Sport are excellent choices for those looking for an adventurous SUV. The Bronco is the best choice for those looking for a vehicle with real off-road capability, while the Bronco Sport is the best choice for those looking for a more compact, fuel-efficient SUV.
