Ford was teasing the new Bronco SUV for a long time and playing with our patience. But finally, Ford has unveiled the all-new Bronco SUV and it looks so cool. The company will be selling the Bronco SUV in three iterations: 2-door, 4-door and Bronco Sport. The 2021 Ford Bronco range is powered by 2.3-litre and 2.7-litre turbo petrol engines mated with a 10-speed auto and 7-speed manual transmissions.
How Does it Look on the Outside?
Ford has done a stupendous job in designing the Bronco. It looks like it has been carried over from the concept form but it still follows its marks from the original Bronco. The front three quarters are reminiscent to the original Bronco and the front is very concept-esque. The hood gets two metal handles which can carry load up to 70 kilos each and also helps the driver to ascertain the size of the front.

The car looks absolutely smashing with the detachable roof off and the doors with transparent glasses make it even cooler. Just like the Jeep Wrangler, you can detach the roof and doors and go offroading like no other. The Sport trim of the Bronco is for road-going purposes and looks like a conventional SUV. The Bronco Sport also comes with different engines which are, honestly, not so special. Hence we will concentrate on the hardcore Broncos from now on.
Jumping Inside
The interiors of the Ford Bronco are special and feels rugged. The dashboard has a single-running metal plate - similar to what we see in the new Defender, and it also has 'Bronco' engraving. The Bronco is not about sumptuousness and soft leather, it's all about rugged and long-lasting. We also get a rubberised pad to keep your stuff. The centre gets big 12.0-inch touchscreen infotainment which comes with many offroad techs, telling you offroad angles, terrain modes and 360-degree parking camera as well.
Turbo Petrols
2021 Ford Bronco two-door and four-door are available with two engine options - 2.3-litre 4 pot turbo petrol and 2.7-litre V6 turbo petrol. The base 2.3-litre 4-pot engine produces 270hp and 420 Nm of torque. The 2.7-litre twin-turbo V6 produces 310hp and 540 Nm of torque. The engines come mated to either a 10-speed automatic gearbox or a 7-speed manual. The 7-speed manual is 6+1 cog and the +1 gear is for low range and high range modes which aid offroading capabilities.

OFFROAD
The 2021 Ford Bronco is made to demolish every terrain present on our mother earth. It can truly be called as a GOAT SUV? Well GOAT, in Ford terminology, stands for GO Over Any Terrain and it really does. All thanks to its terrain modes which are Normal, Eco, Sport, Mud, Slippery, Sand, Baja and Rock. It comes with a rotary dial to access all these modes and you don't need to fumble around for the modes. Ford Bronco also comes with a live axle at the front and front and rear locking differentials.
