Twenty-five years after the last Ford Bronco was offered, an all-new model debuted in 2021. The latest Bronco pays tribute to the original in style but is a thoroughly modern sport utility vehicle with a powerful stance and off-road prowess. Available in two-and four-door configurations, it is the latter choice that offers the most room. To that end, we have assembled 12 attributes of the sixth-generation Ford Bronco Four-door.
