Two Bronco Sport Big Bends at All American Ford in Old Bridge
The All-New 2021 Ford Bronco Sport Has Arrived at All American Ford in Old Bridge
The all-new 2021 Ford Bronco Sport is the perfect combination of size, value, capability, functionality, technology and safety. It’s truly best-in-class and crushes the competition in the compact and sub-compact SUV class(es). People have called it the baby Bronco, as the Bronco Sport is a smaller version of the full-size Bronco. The full-size 4-door and 2-door Broncos will start to arrive by the Summer of 2021. While this Bronco Sport may be more compact, it’s very roomy on the inside with best-in-class head room and best-in-class cargo volume. It’s built on the same platform as the Ford Escape, just with a higher, safari-style roof.
Don’t let the naysayers spread their negativity saying this isn’t a real Bronco because that’s just garbage. This new Bronco Family of the Bronco Sport, 4-Door Bronco and 2-Door Bronco carry on the Bronco brand and expand on it in amazing ways. The Bronco Sport was purposely designed and inspired by the classic Bronco. Its silhouette was engineered with the iconic architectural elements of a Bronco, uniquely tuned to fit the needs of a new wave of adventurer. The fundamental design is complete with peaked front fenders, a flat bodyside, contrast-color roof, one-piece grille and two round headlamps, bisected with perfect geometry by a bar proudly displaying the Bronco name.

Different Models for the Bronco Sport
The Ford Bronco Sport family has five different models to choose from. The base model starts at just $26,660. This is very competitive for the class, especially considering it offers so much more and every Bronco Sport comes with standard 4×4. This is typically an expensive add-on for the competition. The Big Bend™ adds some practical and accommodating features including zipper pockets with a MOLLE strap system, rear flood lights, SecuriCode™ keyless entry keypad, rubberized cargo floor, unique easy-to-clean cloth seats and more. Step up to the Outer Banks™ model for 18-inch machined-face aluminum Ebony black-painted wheels, a shadow black roof, a bold black grille with white Bronco badging, and leather-trimmed interior.
Different Models for the Bronco Sport
The Badlands™ is the peak of Bronco Sport capability and the pinnacle of off-road performance. You get a rugged exterior that includes metal bash plates, off-road tires, 17-inch wheels, advanced 4×4, Trail Control™ and two additional G.O.A.T. Modes™ to help you tackle any type of terrain. The First Edition is the fifth model. It encompasses the best of what a Bronco Sport has to offer. It has the capability of Badlands with the refined styling of the Outer Banks. The First Edition is fully loaded and one-of-a-kind. Like anything unique, it was only available to reserve for a limited time and sold out very early on.
Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, both of the available EcoBoost engines are engineered to ignite your adventure. The 1.5L EcoBoost Engine comes in the Base, Big Bend and Outer Bankers models and boasts 181 horsepower and 190 lb.-ft. of torque. The Badlands model completely leaves the competition in the dust with a best-in-class horsepower and torque. The 2.0L EcoBoost and advanced 4×4 in the Badlands delivers 250 horsepower and 277 lb.-ft. of torque.
Bronco Sport G.O.A.T. Modes™
Bronco Sport G.O.A.T. Modes™
The Bronco Sport allows you to adjust your drive mode to match the environment. It’s part of it’s class-leading Terrain Management System™. The five standard G.O.A.T. Modes™ (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) are Sand, Slippery, Sport, Eco and Normal. The ever-capable Badlands model comes with two additional modes: Mud/Ruts and Rock Crawl. The Rock Crawl mode is what you’ll notice in the crazy footage from Ford Motor Company of the Bronco Sport literally crawling over boulders. These modes aren’t just helpful in the wildest of terrains though; the slippery, sport, eco and normal are helpful during your typical pavement commute or weekend getaway.
H.O.S.S. Suspension
Every Bronco Sport has a High-Performance, Off-Road, Stability, Suspension system or H.O.S.S. This system was tested in the wild and optimized to help drivers maintain vehicle composure while aggressively taking on a rugged terrain. But you will notice how smooth it makes your pavement commute. It’s all about the struts and shocks. And this becomes a gigantic competitive advantage as one of the main complaints from customers with Jeep’s is how horrible and bumpy the ride is. You absolutely need to test drive the Bronco Sport if you’re considering the smaller Jeeps or have had one in the past. You will notice an immediate difference.
Bronco Sport Best-in-Class Interior
Bronco Sport Best-in-Class Interior
The interior of the Bronco Sport is surprisingly very spacious and comfortable, especially compared with the competition. The center console includes a rotary gear shift dial for a more open feel, as well as a place to securely store some of your smaller items. In addition, the 8-inch touch screen features Ford SYNC3 with Apple CarPlay compatibility. A best-in-class cargo volume of 65.2 cu. ft. behind the first row helps make packing painless. And the available rubberized flooring in the cargo area and rubberized rear seat backs create an easy cleanup. The safari-style roof gives extra height for best-in-class head room for even your tallest friends. There’s even enough room to fit two mountain bikes standing up, with the back seats folded down.
Bronco Sport Safety Technology
Every Bronco Sport comes standard with Ford Co-Pilot36o™ Technology, way more than the competition can offer. Ford Co-Pilot360 is a standard set of driver-assist technologies which include Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert, Lane-Keeping System, Auto High-Beam Headlamps, Rear View Camera and more. As part of the H.O.S.S. Suspension system, there are anti-roll bars that help with stability. Something that the Jeeps greatly struggle with.
Tech for the Trail
When you’re out exploring in your new Bronco Sport, you’ll want the best tech features. The available front 180-degree camera with split view acts as a spotter on the trail at slow speeds which gives you a closer look at what lies ahead and even has a built-in washer. One of the cooler features is the Breadcrumb Navigation. You drop virtual breadcrumbs along your way so that GPS remembers your route just in case you need some assistance getting back to where you started. And of course FordPass Connect with 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot comes in handy while camping or out far in the wild. Up to 10 devices can connect at once and you can track your Wi-Fi data usage and you can access the hotspot up to 50 feet outside the Bronco Sport.
