Eh... I’m not sure. It’s possible but with how uptight they’ve been about not showing anything idk. I’m just curious when we’ll get to see the finalized prototypes out and about. They have kept them on a DAMN tight leash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-dubz Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 it looks a bit different than the lights on the baby bronco that was leaked. The led accent lights don’t form a full circle on it. Besides that, it looks very similar. In fact someone mentioned the front has changed a bit since this picture so it very well could be the baby bronco.

So the grill is most likely the baby bronco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assimilator Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 It's definitely not the Baby Bronco so I'm going to assume this is the Bronco Bronco. The reason it's not the Baby Bronco is quite simple, the side markers are in the bumper, not the headlights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K270 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 So how long before someone takes the Bronco R, and photoshops this light into that pic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assimilator Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 It's hard to get a sense of the boundaries with this fixture because it looks like it's meant to be surrounded by trim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard that either but I think it makes sense that Ford will show both at the same time. It's going to be really weird to show Baby Bronco before the Bronco Bronco. How do you message that? PR nightmare. I believe Baby Bronco will end up on dealer lots maybe 4 or 5 months ahead of Bronco Bronco but it's not unreasonable to assume they will debut at the same time. In fact, there will be technically 3 Broncos: Baby, Regular 2 door, and Regular 4 door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 its almost essential that all Broncos be revealed at the same time to give a sense of cohesion. Exciting times ahead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
probowler Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 The absolute mad lad... not only do we know the leaker is of the Nordic power persuasion, but he also has access the the top secret square cubby storage room.

probowler Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Where's the bulb? Is this some kind of new LED type headlight? (The long piece in the middle) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assimilator Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 (edited) I'm sure this is an LED fixture which accounts for the unusual bar design across the center of the round reflector. I also recognize this facility, it's one of Ford's headlight suppliers. I've known a few of the guys working on Ford fixtures over the years. Also worth nothing is that it looks like this fixture doesn't have a circular DRL like the Mini, unless the chrome is transparent. I don't think you can have a masked DRL, but maybe they worked some magic. Edited December 30, 2019 by Assimilator 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly... that's all you need, but I will say the LED DRL strips you see on higher end or luxury cars does look cool! LED headlights on the Baby Bronc? Makes me excited to see what a high-end Bronco will look like! Hopefully Ford does a good job of balancing it with low-cost,high durability off-road models which don't look "cheap", while also offering some more expensive luxury models that bring in the???

As much as I love my old Bronco, the 90's interior is neither durable nor pleasant on the eyes. this is the big Bronco's headlight. Here's baby Bronco's grille insert. You can clearly see the headlight assembly from this thread wouldn't fit properly in this insert. Similar style to keep the family look, sure, but not the same setup: Edited December 30, 2019 by rmc523 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
probowler Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 This whole baby bronco setup looks bizzare in that photo! The best way i can describe it,is the entire front end of the baby bronc sticking though the radiator support of a much larger vehicle. Right? It looks like the headlight should wrap around the front end into the fenders, but then you have all that fat metal extending like 3-4 inches past where the headlight begins to wrap?

(The long piece in the middle) Should operate the same as the led headlamp on the 2020 Indian Challenger. bottom is low beam, top half is high beam.

T-dubz Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 if you look closely at the explorers headlights, you will see that they have the same horizontal element as the bronco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
