Ford has officially announced the Bronco Raptor, set to arrive next year

After a long wait and a lot of speculation, Ford has finally confirmed the arrival of the popular Offroad Bronco in a sharpened version of the Raptor.

The blue oval announced the sharp arrival of the Bronco in a short video, in which we see nothing but the darkened radiator grille, slightly chiseled fender edges, and then a rising layer of dust, which again clearly indicates a lot of fun on the paved roads. Way.

We’ll have to wait for more information, as according to the video, the car should not arrive until 2022. Thanks to the alleged leak of information from the Ford dealer order system, which was recently pointed out by colleagues from Carscoops, a message appeared, according to which the Bronco Raptor is provided directly in two trim levels .

The higher version should offer as standard equipment such as steering wheel heating, navigation, adaptive cruise control, audio system with 10 speakers, etc.

According to the most popular speculation, the Bronco Raptor should receive a 3.0-liter EcoBoost fork with 298 kW (406 hp) and 562 Nm of torque from the Ford Explorer ST. Compared to the standard 2.7-liter six-cylinder engine, the 52 kW (71 hp) Raptor can provide additional power, which is completely useless.

After all, it’s essential to realize that the Broncos are still rugged orthodox. So it will be interesting to see what modifications its chassis will undergo and what the Raptor will love on the road, even in the toughest terrain it was originally designed for. According to some rumors, the Bronco Raptor will only arrive in a four-door version, and its body can be decorated with a completely new shade of orange paint, which was also shown in a short demo.

But we will have to wait for more information. The trailer released today certainly wasn’t the last, and in the future the sharpened Bronco’s Ford may show us more. He has more than enough time for that.
