Ford Puerto Rico has introduced the new Bronco, the flagship of its redesigned off-road family of SUVs, which also includes the Bronco Sport model.
“The Bronco is the iconic model in Ford’s product line that has resurrected.” Robert Esparolini, Ford product manager in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, said: “It does not have a specific audience, although if it is for people who like adventure, they want to feel safe while driving and want Get the latest technology.
Like the first generation Bronco — nicknamed GOAT (go over any type of terrain) — the mission of the new Bronco is to deliver confidence and make it happen, Esparolini explained, incorporating off-road driving technologies to give rookie adventurers plenty of fun. As with the experts, while Built Wild Resilience delivers long-lasting performance in the harshest conditions.
Advanced four-wheel traction technology and a chassis structure are at the heart of its off-road prowess. It offers up to seven modes designed to help drivers better handle any type of terrain: Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, and Sand, with Low, “Mud/Crack” and “Rock Crawl” for off-road driving.
“There are three models to choose from and we expect a very good reception in sales. For the future of electric vehicles, electric is here to stay and we know that. These units are traditionally powered, but the outlook for other Ford products is electric. They will soon see new electric products like the Scape Hibryd,” the executive clarified about the variety of models they plan to increase sales with, although he did not provide numbers.
