rmc523 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 More off-road-ready Ford Bronco Sport appears in spy photos - Autoblog Chunkier tires, a bead-lock lookalike style wheel, and looks like it's gaining a surround 360 view camera system. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ares Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Looks nice. Hoping for a tougher looking front and rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-dubz Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 This looks pretty good. Could we see some interior changes too? I’m guessing 360 camera could also lead to a larger touch screen? Hopefully ford prices it right, but if I had to guess, I’d say msrp of $49,999. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I saw a slightly lifted Bronco Sport with bigger wheels the other day and it looked really nice. I'm guessing this is going to be like that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM222 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 (edited) Ford should export this to more markets. Edited November 11, 2023 by AM222 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford should build BS and Maverick in a Thai plant for the Asia Pacific region, getting anything out of North America or Europe is impossible.. These kinds of vehicles would do well in our region, heck Maverick and a Maverick “SUV” would do.

There are many markets out there where Jeep and Land Rover are enjoying the absence of the Bronco and Bronco Sport. In the Philippines, rare overpriced gray market Bronco Badlands and Bronco Sport Badlands units have been snapped up by enthusiasts who want something that isn't a Jeep, Land Rover or a Land Cruiser. How overpriced? I read both models were priced way much higher than the Explorer Limited AWD officially sold by Ford. Missed opportunity for Ford.

Absolutely no excuses for Ford North American not supplying LHD markets in Asia Pacific, I can understand RHD but you guys are being left out of easy access….

If they can sell the Explorer and Expedition in the Philippines than the BS and Maverick I think could be sent on the same ship. Any import issues from Mexico?

Ford did bring in the GT500 officially in late 2021 and offered it till it was discontinued. Probably a response to the growing number of gray market units prior to that. Gray market models they haven't responded to: Bronco/ Bronco Raptor, Bronco Sport, F150 Raptor. One thing I can say, Ford Philippines to be in the 3rd spot in sales with only 3 mainstream models (Ranger, Everest, and Territory) is something. The F150, Mustang, and Explorer are more niche premium models, with the latter having supply issues after an almost one-year delay.

Ford read this.... Lol Ford Bronco Philippine sales confirmed (topgear.com.ph) I guess this means they can finally give us units after three years.

Incorrect, GT500 was never offered in RHD, an alternative high end special vehicle was developed and sold in limited numbers. Harrop did the work.
