Well that poses an interesting question, what if the Bronco Sport had a choice of 2.5 hybrid or 2.0 EB across the board. Combine that with a second generation with longer wheelbase and I think Ford would have an irresistible package.

You can do some cool stuff with the fox body. Here’s the hoonifox. It’s over the top but a toned down version of this with some modern style could look nice. The widebody hips look kinda cool with the edgy style.   Now keeping with the classic mustang shape, I like this ring brothers restomod from 2006.   But the Equus Bass 770 is pretty much the modern interpretation of a mustang that I’d like to see. 

I get what you are saying, but there was a need to update your post. Sorry.

I had that EXP! I do miss it.

Thanks.  Checking Honda specs confirm all CR-V TrailSport are Hybrid AWD, and also according to Car and Diver all AWD systems were tweaked, so it’s not just the TrailSport that gets the upgrade.  TrailSport does come with different tires.   Anyway, to my previous point, the Honda e-CVT in CR-V TrailSport, and other CR-V Hybrids as well, are of the two-motor design, which means that at low speeds it should drive just like an EV.  Electric motors have proven themselves very effective in off-road driving; probably because they make maximum torque from zero speed.  Honda system operates as series hybrid at low speeds, which should include most all off-road driving.  At low vehicle speed the engine only powers a generator to function as EREV, and a 181 HP electric motor powers the four driven wheels.  Electric motor is rated 247 lb-ft from 0 to 2,000 RPM.   https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a64610673/2026-honda-cr-v-hybrid-trailsport-revealed/

It was parked next to this beauty for on road use only. They also had a Lamborghini Miura and a Lamborghini tractor.    

Nice! There are clubs around the world devoted to restoring these vintage Porsche-Mannesmann Diesel tractors. Even Porsche as a company takes them seriously      

Did someone mention Porsche offroad?  

Agreed but a 0% 48 month loan is essentially the same monthly payment as an 8% 60 month loan. A $45k loan is $935 a month rough either way.    Honestly if someone cannot afford a car payment over 60 months, and need to push it out to 6-7-8 years, they should buy less car. Otherwise they’ll be buried the first 4-5 years of the loan. 

Even though this sculpture was used to hint at s650 and other upcoming Ford's, I also wonder if it was also designed as a wink and a nudge on where Ford was thinking about taking mustang design in the future. Designers love to hint at things like that. The proportions are obviously exaggerated, but toned down for production, this would be pretty perfect imo. Still keeping that muscle car look just with a more exotic flair.
