Look at the posts after. What engine in Fords lineup can provide 600 or so pound feet of torque that might need those orange lines? Hint: It may be a Lincoln only engine right now.

Sure are... have those on our Aviator GT!!! They seem to confirm this: https://www.tflcar.com/2020/08/2022-ford-bronco-hybrid-leak-news/ Time to start saving and selling off some of our old fleet!

I don’t get it. They’ve already released high level pricing. I agree. Honestly, I think a final interior color/pictures reveal would be more worth it than B&P Supposedly Bronco Nation made some sort of video for interior colors. They followed Mike Levine's example by saying "next week" last week, when it actually meant they filmed it this week and won't show it for another 2 weeks at least lol.

akirby Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Well those may not be electrical wires after all. Looks like pneumatic or hydraulic tubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Strange they would make them orange - that would potentially confuse first responders who are trained that high voltage lines on hybrids are orange. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case it's probably not to production spec. It would be nice if we had a clearer more up close shot of it rather than a grainy zoom of the existing pic to know for sure.

rmc523 Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 So, while those orange cables may not have been hybrid indicators, it does have flaps in the camo on BOTH sides of the vehicle - one for gas on the drivers' side, one for a plug on the passenger side?

akirby Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Oh I’m confident it’s a PHEV, just don’t think those are electrical cables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolScoop Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Maybe they made them orange to stir speculation and gauge excitement for a PHEV model on the forums... yea, like that would really happen, lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gas door is on the driver's side. If the other one is an electric plug it would definitely be the first time Ford put it anywhere but the left front fender.

Yeah, I know they're usually on the front driver's fender (across most brands), but I'm just guessing/thought it was odd to see a flap there on the passenger side.
