Will Ford build the next Ford Bronco? A recent agreement between Ford and the United Auto Workers (UAW) suggests that the Bronco is coming around the 2020 timeframe. It has to do with a deal that includes the 2018 Ford Ranger. The report suggests that the 6th generation Bronco will be built at Ford’s Michigan Truck Plant.
Naturally, if produced the reborn Bronco would go head-to-head against the next generation of the Jeep Wrangler and the Land Rover Defender (if Land Rover ever brings it to market). This means that Ford will be aiming for exceptional off-road capability.
How would the 2020 Bronco fit with the times of strict emissions efficiency requirements? It may have to do it with a light-weight aluminum body and advanced powertrain options. Ford did say the company is exploring a possibility of a hybrid-electric Ford F-Series around the 2020 model year. A selection of V6 or I4 EcoBoost engines is a likelihood. A diesel motor is also a possibility.
The Bronco6G.com forum did the 2020 Bronco sketches that combine Bronco style and features from several generations. The question still remains. How would you configure your 2020 Ford Bronco? Would you get a two-door model like the concept you see here or would a four-door model be more fitting?
