The Ford Bronco is an icon of automotive excellence. From its inception in the 1960s, it evolved into one of the all-time favorite off-road SUVs. Part of that evolution is the 2024 Bronco Sport, a crossover SUV that is a capable daily driver, as well as a muscular off-roader. The groovy, all-new Free Wheeling special edition boasts a retro 70s vibe with reflective red, orange and yellow gradient graphics that also punctuate the interior. Another update is the rich Black Appearance package, available with the Bronco Sport Big Bend. The package includes a carbon black grille, 17-inch matte-black painted wheels, a Shadow Black roof and black accent trim badges. The 2024 Bronco Sport also offers the new exterior paint colors, Desert Sand and Azure Gray.

The 2024 Bronco Sport base model features a 181-horsepower, turbocharged EcoBoost 1.5 liter, three-cylinder engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. A 250-horsepower, turbo 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine is standard for the Badlands model. This powerful engine pairs with steering-wheel mounted paddle shifters and an upgraded cooling system. All Bronco Sports have all-wheel drive and a minimum of five terrain settings, including Slippery, Mud/Ruts and Sand. Ford calls these G.O.A.T., and while some may say (understandably) that this stands for Greatest of All Time, Ford has dubbed these modes Goes Over Any Type of Terrain. The top-of-the-line Badlands is equipped with all-terrain tires paired with 17-inch wheels, a 1.0-inch suspension lift and robust dampers. It also comes with a twin-clutch rear drive unit with differential lock. The three-cylinder Bronco Sport delivers 25 mpg city, 28 mpg highway and 26 mpg combined. The brawnier Badlands tallies 21 mpg city, 26 mpg highway and 23 mpg combined.
No matter where your adventures take you, the Bronco Sport will get you there in comfort. With ample room for five passengers, it has heated front cloth bucket seats and a toasty, heated steering wheel. It also features an eight-way power driver's seat and a six-way power front passenger seat to suit a wide range of adjustment preferences. A safari-style roof offers generous headroom for taller riders. Additionally, there's plenty of cargo room for two bikes - with space left over. There's also an available full rubber floor to easily clean off mud from full-on trail treks. Driving in bright sunlight? Glowing moonlight? Just pop open the power moonroof and enjoy!
Control placement makes all the difference in having a good infotainment experience, and the Bronco Sports' are arranged logically and accessibly. All trim levels are equipped with an 8-inch touchscreen, which impressively pairs with Ford's Synch 3 infotainment system. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration are also standard, as is six-speaker audio. The Banks and Badlands trims can be outfitted with SiriusXM radio and 10 B&O speakers. Each seat row has two USB ports.
The Bronco Sport received high crash test scores from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It earned five stars overall rating and five stars in the frontal crash category, five stars in the side crash category and four stars in the rollover category. Its standard driver assistance safety features include automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors, forward collision warning with automatic braking, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control (which is particularly responsive to stop-and-go traffic), automatic high beams and rain-sensing windshield wipers. When you're exploring the wilderness, an available 180-degree, split view camera will guide you on the trail.
The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport is much, much more than just transportation. It's an experience. Whether you're cruising the city, hitting the open road or kicking up mud, the Bronco Sport will help you follow your own path. Ready to discover the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport that's uniquely you?
