OJ wont dare to drive one haha

It's really not that slow though.

@@muhammadabutaki2686 To be fair this released was delayed, something about the date just happening to be famous of some white Ford Bronco in LA. Ford didn't think releasing the new Bronco on that date was a good idea.

@@imnotusingmyrealname4566 The 2.0 liter turbo is actually pretty quick. 0-60 mph in about 6.1 seconds, I believe

I cannot fathom how in the universe is 184bhp slow. I understand that for people who regularly drive M and AMG cars a "mere" 184bhp feels slow, sure. But for 99% of customers? This is absolutely fast enough. What are they going to do with it? Race it off the lights?

I'm dissapointed there were no jean jackets, pit vipers, or shotgunning Busch beers in this video.... *checks to see if Larry Enticer bought a new Bronco*

Probably the best car review comment I’ve ever heard haha!

@@TNSurly A deeply satisfying comment :)

It is a great description of these folks.

Mitsubishi would like to have a word...

There already was a Colt....it was a shitbox car, worse than the Fiesta.

@@mattb9664 I gotta say the Colt had more character than the Bronco Sport. 😂

Why not the bronco ii

Probably not, they don't want to name it C(olt) after B(olt). 😆

The curvy shape of modern crossovers make it more difficult (read: more expensive) to set up a window hatch lol.

I personally like the power liftgate window in the Toyota 4 runner better, but there definitely should be this kind of easy access on all SUVs.

I actually like the flood lights for when you lift up the hatch. I thought that was really smart

I had such a hatch window once; a past Range Rover... never used it, and the seals filled with dust from driving off pavement. Don't miss it...

the fuck r u smoking? SUV's have been the head of the market for the pasy 10 years....hell they even killed off fucking cars....

@@Scypher0th most SUVs are boring and all look the same. As of late manufacturers are going to these cool boxy type styles that aren’t awful. Hummer is coming back, defender, bronco sport and bronco, rivian, grand wagoneer, etc.

Not sure what the problem is...? I think it looks fine. Not every car should try to be "premium" (whatever that means). And the more hardcore people can buy the actual Bronco.

@@dsugioaga exactly - this base level sport will be a fine car for the average person. Without volume cars like this - no auto maker exists. Is the Toyota Camry there to inspire excitement or just be a good reliable car?

Who doesn't "want to be" a "wannabe bestseller?" 🤷‍♂️

What is a wannabe bestseller? This is literally designed to be competition to the AWD adventure and TRD trim Rav4s and AWD cherokees. It's punching well above both of those vehicles also.

@Nomen Clature 1. It's not a Ford focus chassis, 2. It has substantially more power with the 2.0 than the RAV4 (I had one and traded it before 10k because it was so fucking slow, shifted like crap, driver seat broke, and the suspension creaked like crazy) and 3. The suspension geometry numbers and pricing is better when cross-shopping the badlands and Rav4 offroad models. But like I said, I owned a Rav4 Adventure. It was the worst vehicle I've ever owned.

It gets a little old, especially when they crap talk cars while praising them simultaneously. Its confusing. I think that new cayman gt4 is the first time they agreed to actually be positive and not dwell on some weird quibble.

@@NONARCS They have to talk about the good, the bad and the ugly so that potential buyers know exactly what they're getting into.

@@NONARCS You realize that most modern cars are great, right... This isn't the 1970's where 'bumpers stay on' is a feature. Most criticism of a vehicle is a 'quibble'. A crap sound system, weak performance, and overall lack of reason to exist is a much bigger set of issues than a 'quibble'.

@@tim3172 I realize that the Ford Focus, Escape and Explorer are a nightmare to use and own, all FCA vehicles are crap of one form or another and most German luxury vehicles will need some parts replaced under warranty within the first 20,000 miles. Is that what you mean by "great"? I expect these guys to know cars and respect them, I was commenting that they always find something to rag on first and are dismissive of some really well designed cars and outright hostile to everything else. it was fun 4 years ago but now it is often boring. That's all.

Excusesgeese in full effect

With that much rust under it for a new car, I reckon it wont be far long.

Along side the Land Rover

​@@alexisledesma7109 Most new cars are going to get surface rust on the bottom there is not much you can do to stop it. You can put panels and trim on the bottom, but its just hiding the metal. Most metal on the bottom is going to be stamped steel. Also on this car you see the salt caked up there, in which almost any piece of metal is going to corrode. Salt is the worst thing for cars, Its amazing how its used so freely when its guaranteed to destroy cars.

@@richr161 bull

@@alexisledesma7109 surface rust on a car they have been beating for the review, not a big deal

This is an Escape. Same vehicle, different trim.

Yea the dimensions and proportions look a lot like the escape/tribute. It is just a tarted up version of the current escape after all

Yes, this really feels like it's trying to recapture some of the people who didn't like when the escape started looking like a lifted hatchback. My wife immediately ruled them out because she wanted a tall/square rear hatch, and this would deliver that for her.

@@yienmaster04, with the shortened wheelbase, does she get any more storage than a regular Escape?

Agreed! The gen2 in particular - rough but honest, unibody be damned.

I thought it was the differential that was reportedly overheating in the press junkets. Ahh, I bet we're both right!

We all know that is impossible! You're a phony!

good luck towing your boat with one of these...

Did they use the same torque vectoring rear diff from the Focus RS? Would explain the overheating.. yeah this application that generates a lot of heat? Nahhhh no cooling or heat sink covers.. don't need that

Modern design lol

Being protected in a rear-end crash or rollover is stupid. I'd much rather die.

@@tim3172 BMW 3 & 5 series wagons manage to have full width openings under their opening hatch glass yet still get 5 star NCAP crash ratings. So something in your logic doesn't connect.

Yeah you're not running away from the cops on the highway with this one.

Its fine for the low speed chases favored by the discerning bronco driver👍

That's how I describe my 4Runner, haha

I presume they never tried an automatic Geo Metro.

It’s 0-60 in 8.5 seconds, that’s a solid 2 seconds faster than a Jeep Compass for comparison. Hell a couple decades ago that’d be considered nippy for an SUV.

I was just saying the same thing. My 1996 Volvo has like 1/10th of what I'm seeing there, and I'm on the East Coast in salted winters!

@Nomen Clature Stupid comment

My nine year old New Jersey Honda Accord has no visible undercarriage rust. I’m guessing that Ford invested in the Midas corporation

@Nomen Clature Lol. Why are you being a clown?

The Ford Way.

🐷

If this thing is "apocalyptically slow", I doubt Mark and Jack have the words to describe the performance of my car!

I've found that 0-60 for the 1.5 litre is 8.6 seconds. That's far from apocalyptically slow. Under 10s is about average for a European sedan and we drive faster over here. Don't get the obsession with acceleration when you top out at around 70mph. Bronco Sport is hardly a car you buy for acceleration. My off-roader's 0-60 = yes (over 20s) and that's apocalyptically slow.

i miss Toddd so much

Sorry about your wifes delay. I do think the badlands with the 2.0 and tvd will fix most of my issues with this car. My issue with the 1.5 is for the mass of the non bandlands and intended purpose(95 percent road duty and light trails), it lacks the torque for simple merging and it fails to return competitive real world economy numbers. I returned mid low 20s.

really hope it features a bigger glove box

@@Ian-oe9wp definitely need to hide those poor fitting gloves.

Do you think it would be a good vehicle for a kid going off to college? Interior space to move stuff around, etc? Or how about a good used vehicle for a new driver?

I've been driving a 2.0 manual 2015 Mazda 3 for 4 years and I'm getting more outdoorsy. Hiking, mountain biking, and have a dirt bike to haul around so this is appealing to me considering how fucking outrageously expensive anything with a bed is, even the maverick. I imagine that turbo spooling nice and low will still feel faster than my Mazda lol. The manual is nice and it's a zippy car around town and it's fine, so I'd venture to guess the 3cyl in the bronco sport is also just fine right?

Come here for the Goose, stay for the 💪 show.

That's just the undercoating. It's rust colored and has a rough texture. If you do it just right you can give it a splotchy look.

Yep and only 5k miles on it

Just surface rust. It's not hurting anything. If you look underneath your car it will look the same.

@@666cemetaryslut ya after 5 years. its obvious this junk and not made to last by just looking at the underside. that exhaust looks like its going to rot through in a few years.

Good eye, maybe this press car had a flat at one point?

torture test for the awd?

Have my upvote because you're exactly right.

The real bronco will outsell this

Its brilliant really , theyll never make enough of the big broncos for them to be profitable.

@@MuditBadlani you didn't know the connection between OJ and a ford bronco?

It seems as if he called it “apocalyptically” slow just to kiss up to his master, whose initial instant impression as a passenger was that it was slow. Apocalyptically slow, to me, would have to be around 11 seconds 0-60 or worse in this category. They never even timed their one shot at a 0-60, but because the cynical goose declared it slow, so be it.

@@thomasrainsford4208 Exactly. The 1.0 3 cylinder in the Ecosport is that kind of slow. This isn't. I got tired of them carping on and on about how slow it is. Its not.

I own a 2.0 and it is a night-day difference in drivability.

@@MrSixshooter798 still enjoying it?

@@byrde4329 yes. Got about 3,000 miles on it now and it's a damn decent little SUV thing
