The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport: Adventure in a Compact Package

Fuel-Efficient Performance
This edition of the Bronco Sport offers multiple trim levels for you to choose from, with most coming standard with a 181-horsepower 1.5-liter engine that generates 190 pound-feet of torque. If you need more output, you’ll easily find it in Badlands models, which come with a 2.0-liter engine that produces 250 horses and 277 pound-feet of torque. Both engines are turbocharged and fuel-efficient, with the 1.5-liter getting an estimated 28 MPG on highways and the other up to 26 MPG.

When towing recreational vehicles on trailers, the 1.5-liter engine is capable of pulling up to 2,000 pounds when fully equipped, while the larger engine increases strength to 2,200 pounds. While both engines come with a smooth-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission, the 2.0-liter features SelectShift technology, allowing you to choose between fully automatic shifting and clutch-less, semi-automatic shifting, and with a pair of paddle shifters for extra fun. There’s also an optional engine block heater for combating colder temperatures.

Off-Roading Capabilities
As for off-roading, this SUV is more than ready for thrills with its standard four-wheel drive system, which comes as an advanced system with a twin-clutch rear-drive unit in Badlands models. The G.O.A.T. Modes terrain management system provides multiple performance modes that you can choose from for different driving scenarios, and every model also comes with the High-Speed Off-Road Suspension System (H.O.S.S.) – perfect for optimized handling and comfort when desert racing.

Badlands models offer extra ruggedness with 8.8 inches of ground clearance and 23.6 inches of water-fording capabilities when equipping it with the available all-terrain off-road tires. This setup also lends the vehicle a 30.4-degree approach angle and 33.1-degree departure angle, allowing you to easily tackle rocky terrains with confidence. You’ll also get Trail Control with Badlands models, which acts as a cruise control while driving at slow speeds.

Comforts and Convenience
The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport has a luxurious interior that offers many standard and optional moisture-resistant materials, including rubberized seatback mats, flooring, and floor mats. The available heated front seats, standard on upper trims, come in stylish materials like two-tone mini-perforated leather. Other available comfort features, depending on which trim level you go with, include dual-zone climate control, a heated steering wheel, and a power moonroof, and rear-seat passengers can enjoy standard privacy glass around the second row and liftgate.

There’s also a standard 60/40 split-folding seat offered with every model, as well as power windows. Interior convenience options include a cargo management system and an interior bike rack, as well as an auto-dimming rearview mirror, which comes standard in Outer Banks models. More space can be found in Badlands models, which offer an under-seat storage compartment in the back, and smaller items can be secured in the optional console-mounted safe, which comes with a coded lock.

Exterior Design and Style
Outside the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport, a wide array of nature-inspired paint options is available, including Desert Sand, Eruption Green Metallic, and Atlas Blue Metallic, as well as many other stylish options. Along with a standard safari-style roof on every model that adds more space inside the cabin, the Heritage trim, a throwback version of the vehicle that debuted with the previous edition, comes with an Oxford White roof, giving the vehicle a unique two-tone look.

While roof rack side rails come standard, there are also optional roof rail sidebars, giving you plenty of options for attaching third-party accessories and cargo compartments, and the LED headlamps offer standard signature lighting on select models. The flip-up rear glass provides quick access when grabbing cargo, and many features to enhance the vehicle’s ruggedness are available, including front and rear splash guards, mud flaps, front tow hooks, LED fog lamps, metal bash plates, and all-terrain tires.

Sophisticated Technology
Premium technology can be found throughout the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport as well, with a 10-speaker B&O audio system available that pairs with the standard SYNC 3 infotainment system. The latter feature provides wireless Bluetooth connectivity for smartphones, hands-free calling, and audible navigation support, while the 180-degree Trail Cam helps you visualize hazards on trails. You can also enjoy up to 150 channels of music and podcasts with the SiriusXM satellite radio feature.

There’s also a wireless charging pad available for smartphones, as well as multiple 12-volt power points and dual USB ports that come standard throughout the cabin. The standard Intelligent Access with Push-Button Start feature allows you to quickly get in and go when in a hurry, the optional remote start is perfect for warming up the vehicle on cold mornings from inside your home, and the Universal Garage Door opener adds to all this convenience.

Advanced Safety and Security
Keeping you secure both on and off the road, the many standard and available driver-assist and safety features offered for this vehicle use advanced technology as well, with Pre-Collision Assist, Evasive Steering Assist, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane-Keeping System, and the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) all helping you avoid collisions on highways. The optional Adaptive Cruise Control comes with both Lane Centering and Speed Sign Recognition technology, and the standard Electronic Traction Control detects and corrects traction loss.

The Rear View Camera, also standard, is perfect for both trailering and backing out of parking spots safely, and the optional rear parking sensors, which come standard on Outer Banks models, help complement this. When parked, the perimeter alarm and SecureLock Passive Anti-Theft System both help protect the vehicle, and if you happen to get into an accident that deploys an airbag or activates the battery shut-off feature, the 911 Assist feature calls for help automatically.
