Are there any updates to the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport?
Indeed there are! The new Bronco Sport offers a variety of new style options, including a 70s-inspired trim model, the Free Wheeling. You’ll definitely see the Free Wheeling coming, thanks to its sunset-colored side stripes and red exterior trim.
Since the Base model has been discontinued, the Big Bend is now the entry-level Bronco Sport trim model. And speaking of the Big Bend, shoppers can now equip this model with a sleek Black Appearance Package.
How much horsepower does the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport deliver?
Depending on which Bronco Sport trim model you like, your model can deliver up to 250 horsepower! The rugged Badlands trim model comes standard with the powerful turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine for improved off-road performance. But other Bronco Sport trim models also deliver a healthy dose of speed, thanks to the standard 181-horsepower turbocharged engine.
When it comes to tow ratings, either engine will help you transport a small watercraft or the family collection of dirt bikes. With the base engine and the proper equipment, the Bronco Sport can tow up to 2,000 pounds. The Badlands can tow up to 2,200 pounds.
The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport powertrain options include:
- Standard turbocharged 1.5L three-cylinder engine (181 horsepower, 190 lb-ft of torque)
- Badlands: turbo 2.0L four-cylinder engine (250 hp, 277 lb-ft)
- Eight-speed automatic transmission
- All-wheel drive
Is the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport a good daily driver?
The Bronco Sport was specially designed to bridge the gap between everyday comfort and off-roading capabilities. Thanks to a very spacious cabin and supportive seating, the Bronco Sport is a great commuter. Compared to other compact crossovers, this sporty Ford delivers excellent front-seat passenger space.
Because the suspension is tuned for a sporty drive, the Bronco Sport won’t feel quite as smooth and refined as some competitors. However, this sporty crossover was designed to strike a good balance between off-road capabilities and everyday comfort, making it a good fit for family road trips and work commuting. If you’d prefer to make on-road comfort more of a priority, we recommend checking out the Ford Escape, which gives you the same cabin setup without the off-road-tuned suspension.
In addition to space and seating comfort, the 2024 Bronco Sport is big on modern features. The entry-level Big Bend model comes with automatic climate control and stain-resistant seating upholstery, for example. Move up to the Heritage or Free Wheeling trim models for 60s or 70s style, respectively, with unique upholstery and interior trim. The Outer Banks is the swankiest option, with leather upholstery, heated front seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The rugged Badlands also has its finer points, building on the Big Bend features with power-adjustable, heated front seats.
