Almost a mini van

For those looking for a Bronco....keep looking. This is for the suburban Disney dads who almost bought a mini van and refers to "him"self as a "diy kinda guy". Really disappointed in a vehicle that had some grit to be just a typical "I wear north face and love kayaking with my beard and skinny jeans" kinda of suburban dad.

Its sporty!

This is the first new car I have owned, and I love it! It is sporty, like a little Tank, and the headlights are awesome. It looks a bit mean and intimidating coming at you! Interior is great, very functional. Perfect for pushing through the snow and all my off roading!

I was hoping this was gonna be a more reliable car

I had it for 1 week the low oil pressure light came on. It's been at the dealer ship for 11 days cause they have to get the diagnostic tool In for this vehicle. It's coming from Mexico but because of the weather in Texas it has delayed the part. I'm over waiting.

Best vehicle I've ever owned.

I purchased my Bronco sport last week and it has been the easiest transition of my car buying life. It is smooth , pretty, peppy, and all around a great suv. The value is unmatched, ford was very thoughtful in the design. I'm 6ft tall and have at least 6 inches of head room which to me is a big bonus. I could go on and on about the things I love but to sum it up I'm very pleased with everything this vehicle brought to the market.

Coolest looking SUV I've ever owned

I've traded in a Mercury Mariner Hybrid that had 238K miles and I own a 2018 Escape. The Bronco Sport sits higher, which gets me out of oncoming lights in my eyes, it is quick and it looks fantastic.

Dead @ 700 miles

I'm mostly posting this because it doesn't seem to have happened to anyone else. Completely dead and locked up, even the keys stuck in the ignition. Ford knows it's electrical. Bought it 3 weeks ago, put about 700 highway only miles on it. Sat all day Saturday, tried to leave Sunday and the instrument panel is dead and won't even attempt to start. 2021 bronco sport base model. Was very nice. Will update when it's solved.

Viewed on the lot

I've been waiting for the Bronco to come out for years and I have to say I was a little disappointed when I checked it out. I did not test drive or purchase this car so my review is NOT based on the performance. I looked at the Bad Lands and the Big Bend. First thought of the Ford Bronco Sport is that its sporty looking, what was Ford waiting for? I popped the hood and it seemed wonky coming up like the hinges would give you a problem if you off roaded your SUV. Next would be the interior, I looked at the Big Bend and the Bad Lands and I was so sad to see how cheap it felt inside. It had lots of head room and leg room but the dash, console, and plastic door panels felt like it would not last long. I wish the center console were bigger for more shoulder room. Did I mention the cup holders? There weren't many and none that would fit a large cup or bottle. II liked the engine bay, it would be easy to work on this yourself if that was ever needed. The seats had a neat feature with zippers and molle loops in the rear. The overall look is great! I will consider purchasing one next year if some interior features are updated.

Great New Vehicle within the Small SUV Sector!

At long last it has arrived! We ordered our Ford Bronco Sport Badlands Edition in Kodiak Brown back in July/August. It just arrived to our local dealer last week and now sits in our driveway. Love the styling; it really feels much bigger than it is when you are behind the wheel. As someone who is 6'3, I do feel comfortable with head clearance and room within the front. No other vehicle within this category accommodates. The backseat is tight in terms of leg room for adults, unless one moves up the front seats. All the technology and creature comforts blend well with the rugged/beefy look of the vehicle. We haven't gone on a long drive yet, but already I am so much happier with this as compared to our 2014 Jeep.

New Bronco does not live up to being called Bronco

Went to go buy one after months of waiting and what a disappointment. Sooo small. Teenage girl car. Have seen 3 on the road in the city since I drove it and all have been driven by girls.
