Modernized Blast From the Past

Ford is paying tribute to its iconic and wildly popular Bronco brand that captivated the nation and the world when it debuted in 1966. The tribute comes in the form of several new models that are modernized blasts from the past. Bronco is the epitome of rugged good looks and sensational off-roading capabilities. In historically modernized versions of that tradition, Ford is introducing the Bronco Sport, Heritage and Heritage Limited.  The Sport starts at $34,245; the Heritage at $45,900 and the Heritage Limited at $68,490.  The vehicles pay homage to Bronco's history with some signature designs from the first-generation vehicles.

Past Meets Present

The limited-edition vehicles contain quite a few throwbacks to the original 1966 Bronco design including the white front grill, squared fenders, white wheels, plaid interior upholstery and white roof. The Sport version has a 181 hp, 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine. The larger Heritage has a 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine with optional 7-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission.  The powertrain pumps out 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque.  Ford's High Performance Off-Road Stability Suspension is standard as are Goodyear's 35-inch, mud-terrain tires.  The more expensive Heritage Limited comes with a powerful 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine that delivers 330 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque.  It comes with a 10-speed automatic transmission.  The vehicles can be ordered and will be available in 5 colors.  Given the crowd-pleasing interest in Bronco, Ford expects tremendous interest in these limited-edition vehicles.  For more news like this, Breakthrough Concept Cars 2020s
