Should've been around since the beginning, but glad they're finally getting to it.

Which model are you referring to?

Ford Bronco Hybrid Arrives In 2027 Amid Automaker's Electrified Pivot    Now, we're receiving further confirmation that a Ford Bronco hybrid model is coming soon, via Automotive News. In its latest future product roadmap, AN says that a Ford Bronco hybrid is not only coming, but very soon - 2027, in fact. As Ford Authority reported earlier today, it will be joined a bit later down the road - by the end of the decade, at least - by a Bronco pickup of some sort, though it's unclear which Bronco it will be based on   https://fordauthority.com/2026/08/ford-bronco-hybrid-arrives-in-2027-amid-automakers-electrified-pivot/

T6.3 will likely transition to ROW models including Everest....

I was gonna post this and I agree with the styling, it actually looks pretty good and had decent amount of “toughness” built into the looks.    not a fan of the ovoid steering wheel but I think that is Hyundai thing now

I'm hoping so as well. Still probably not the best path if it's going to be one's only vehicle in certain areas or for some lifestyles/needs. But the same can be said of a diesel Super Duty.

Why waste all those resources on a vehicle that might break even.  Too expensive to make enough profit here.     A lower cost version based on the upcoming maverick SUV which is presumably on a much cheaper platform has a chance.

I hope you have an amazing retirement Jpd. Hopefully you still stick around here, it's always enjoyable being able to chat with you. 

I'm meaning years ago they could've started bringing it over similar with what they've done with Nautilus, which would've given dealers a sedan option that they've wanted.....I've been suggesting that for a few years, as the work to create it is already done.   Obviously going forward, it seems like a non-starter at this time with the Chinese origins, and don't see that changing soon.   I'd agree that the only hope at this point would be something based on the Mustang sedan, but I don't think there's been any rumblings of that.  ExplorerDude would probably be the only one here that could shed some light on that.
