According to Ford Philippines, the company will only accept online orders for the Ford Bronco and customers will be assisted by all Ford dealers nationwide. However, there is no official information yet on the specific technical specifications and release date of the Ford Bronco for users in the Philippines.
However, according to local media, the Ford Bronco is expected to be launched around mid-2024. It is likely that the Bronco will be introduced at the Manila 2024 International Auto Show. There will be a total of 3 variants of the Bronco available in the Philippines. The important information is that the first batch of vehicles will be limited to only 300 units nationwide.
The Ford Bronco is a very popular model in the US and has received a huge number of orders since its launch. It has the best ground clearance in its segment at 294 mm and the highest water fording capability in its segment at 851 mm.
In the US, the Ford Bronco is available with 2 EcoBoost engine options, including a base 2.3L, 4-cylinder engine that produces a maximum output of 270 horsepower and a peak torque of 420 Nm, and a 2.7L, V6 engine with 310 horsepower and 542 Nm of torque, combined with a new 7-speed manual or a 10-speed automatic transmission and 4×4 drive system.
Notably, the all-new Ford Bronco is equipped with the Trail Toolbox package, which includes a range of technologies to help users experience wild off-road adventures. The specific technologies in the Trail Toolbox package include Trail Control, which is a low-speed cruise control system that aids the driver in navigating rough terrain; Trail Turn Assist, which helps the vehicle make easy steering input when off-roading; and Trail One-Pedal Drive, which allows users to confidently navigate steep and rocky terrain.
Both the 2-door and 4-door body styles of the new Ford Bronco are equipped with exclusive frameless doors in the segment, which can be easily removed compared to competitor models like the Jeep Wrangler. In addition, the Ford Bronco can also have its roof removed to become a special convertible version.
Similar to the exterior, the interior of the Bronco is also inspired by the original Bronco model. The interior is designed to be simple and intuitive. The cabin uses materials that are weather-resistant, including a rubberized cargo floor with drainage holes, waterproof switches, and water-resistant seat upholstery.
The dashboard can also be equipped with a smart mount for attaching various devices such as phones or cameras.
Another prominent highlight inside the new Bronco is Ford’s latest SYNC4 infotainment system, which features a 12-inch touchscreen (8-inch standard) and integrates an off-road navigation system. This system uses a 360-degree camera to help the driver easily observe the terrain, especially when driving in mountainous areas.
