In this video I really push the limits of the Bronco Sport. Back at Uwharrie off-road park, I decided to go straight to the most difficult trails first. Daniel trail is very steep and has a lot of very large rocks to negotiate. other parts of the trail are very loose and offer very little traction. But the Bronco Sport is like a little mountain goat! It did sustain some damage to the plastic door protector and lower part of the front bumper, but that is to be expected since this car is almost showroom stock. In a later part of the video, I test out the Mud/Ruts setting on the G.O.A.T. modes. It didn't go so well. But for what it is, essentially a grocery getting crossover, it is truly amazing off-road! Thanks to all who watch and please take a minute to share this video with a friend.

I don't care what anyone says about this not being a "real Bronco". This little box on wheels is extremely impressive. Ford did a great job.
They said the same thing about the bronco 2 now everyone loves them.
This is the realest off road test I’ve seen for the Bronco Sport, great content👍🏼
The reel answer of the Bronco Badland capability: th-cam.com/video/5QE7A3ZqMRA/w-d-xo.html
Funny thing. My Wife said to me she really wanted a Bronco. I was excited. Took her to the Dealership, showed her the Bronco and she said, what’s that? That’s when my heart sunk. She meant the Bronco Sport. So, I’ve been watching and reading up on the Sport so I could show her she should get The Bronco instead. After everything I’ve read, watched and seen. Im good with the Sport. She’s not going rock climbing. We live in South Florida. Very impressed.
Exactly what I was waiting for! Great job, this is more than I’d even consider in a Bronco Sport. This capability with the daily driving livability makes this a no brainer
I was surprised it made it to be honest. I only planned on seeing how far it would go and then going back. But it went everywhere lol. The look on the Jeep guys faces is worth every penny
Nah, just throw in 10k more and get the big daddy Bronco. Don’t do something you’ll regret. You’ll recoup the $10k in resale value, probably more. Be smart my man.

@@SpaceTravel1776 the problem is the wait for the bigger Broncos. I believe it's still over a year. We just picked up our sport lastnight which we ordered the day after Thanksgiving in November. The dealer did a great job making sure that we knew it was going to be the end of March beginning of April before we would receive it. Still dealing with the chip issue (shortage) with the Broncos
@@scottw2157 You're right, and with the gas costs and extra insurance premiums for the more expensive big daddy Bronco, money would be flying out of your pocket left and right. The Bronco sport is the more intelligent purchase.
Best off road test of the Bronco Sport yet! Thanks man
Our badlands is badass. It’s still too new for us to attempt anything like this, but I will say it handles ice and snow better than anything I’ve owned. We got about 7 inches last week and it drove like the grounds were dry.
Just ordered my kit! Super excited to get this on my Bronco Sport Badlands. Thanks for creating this kit for us.
I can’t wait to buy one of these. The more I see videos of this thing off-road the more I’m convinced lol. I know it would never do this sort of thing in my possession, but it’s nice knowing what it is capable of. It’s gonna make a great family vehicle for inclement weather conditions
This is the most intense offroad video for Badlands I've seen. Kudos and nice one. 🎉
Thank you so much for this amazing review bro. I wanted the bronco sport to be test in something like this. God bless you and keep up the good work.
extremely impressive, appreciate the video. Can't wait to take my badlands up some hills.
You are to be commended. This is wayyyyy more than I would have ever considered attempting.
We just got the 2022 Bronco Sport, and this video makes me feel pretty darn happy with it! Can't wait to get out and see what it can do!
I came here because I have a Maverick 2.0L FX4 which is the same as this bronco. This little rippers are super capable! Thanks for this video!
This video really shows how capable the sport is!
Did a similar but less challenging trail in the Bronco Sport. Was pretty amazed. Only concern was tearing up something on the undercarriage or at one point tipping over on a hard angle. Neither happened.
Very impressed.
It definitely needs more clearance to take on the big stuff. It’s at 10.5” as it sits. But for what it is, it punches way above its weight
@@hrg_tvYep, just 2 weeks with my new BadLands but it definitely punches way above its weight. Beats My Land Rover Discovery Diesel in mileage per gallon, as well. So far, for what it is, impressive. We will see.
Wow - I would think twice about taking that trail on a motorcycle. Your willingness and ability to get up that trail in a new Bronco Sport is impressive. Very impressive.
Currently looking at the 2022 big bend. I’m not into aggressive off roading but more into camping in the woods type of off-road. This video definitely makes this vehicle more appealing to me. Thanks!
Dude! ... You did stuff that I havent even done on my Xterra Pro4X LOL... my wife and I went to the dealership today and test drove the little Badlands, I was quite impressed and after finding this video I am even more! Rock on man!
How did you even get a chance to test drive this? You dealership must be really nice man!
I was blown away with what you conquered with that little Bronco sport, great job!!
You was making me sweat just watching take it up that gnarly trail!
Next time you wanna run it in that deep mud hole, turn off the traction control completely and punch the gas, the computer will let you have every bit of it and I’m sure you will come flying out of that hole next time!
This is the video I needed to watch. Getting one
First real off road video ! great video!!
As an owner of a Bronco BL (big one), I was impressed. That trail appears steep, but shouldn't be too much a challenge with vehicle with a Sway Bar DC and lockers in both axles, but the BS doesn't have those. It gained some serious respect today for sure. Shame you didn't have anyone there to catch the outside angles and really show the articulation and flex. Those trails look super fun.
This thing doesn’t flex, it 3 wheels.
That place is nuts. Nice job.
My wife has an area 51 badlands on order so i most certainly will be contacting you folks. Ty for the great vids.
When I think I have seen it all. Then something crazy comes along. I just had to see it. I am now gonna go further than I ever thought pushing.
Thanks for doing this. TFL is so disappointing because they just do not take their tests to this degree of difficultly . Thanks again for being real!
seriously impressed with the Bronco Sport aka baby bronco. At the beginning of the video i thought you were crazy or stupid but damn that was cool to see. Not saying it was easy for the sport BUT definitely possible. I have one of your lift kits installed on my Pilot but didnt know you have a channel on YT. Definitely subbing
Got mine with some BFG KO2s... I couldn’t be happier. I would never put mine through what you just did but light off roading still plenty of fun for me.
Wow! Very impressive what this little guy can do with a great driver.
I just got my baby bronco and can't wait to get a lift installed!
Pretty insane what you did. Thanks.
We got the Big Bronco and the Bronco sport for my wife. The gas mileage on the sport it’s freaking awesome. She used to fill the tank weekly… now she fill up the tank like every two weeks, sometimes every two weeks and a half. Which is crazy!
Great video! Love the baby bronco.
I wish I could see the renegade go through this too, my wife wants one or the other, this is a true test.
hahaha.... goin through this solo, no spotter, nobody else on trail.. no winch... ridiculous! Balls of steel! you're a true wheeler man, nice drivin
It's great to see someone put this "soft roader" through the ringer, especially a lift kit manufacturer. Great showcase of what the vehicle can do with your product. It's quite surprising for a unibody SUV, Ford did well with the angles and the traction control seems to spin the tires a lot less than Subaru's system.
This is sooo bad ass and good to know how capable it is. But if this were personally mine i wouldn't you push it to its limits and risk damaging it especially when is brand new. Thank you to you sir for risking it all for us! I appreciate it. Lol.
OMG!!! Crazier than me width my Bronco in Brazil!
Great video! Conquering the front side of Daniel is no easy feat. Next time you should try Dickey bell. It’s probably the second toughest trail at Uwharrie. I’ll be getting my Bronco early next year. I’d love to hit Uwharrie with you at some point.
I did Dickie bell that same day. It was actually much more difficult than I thought. Unfortunately I was down to one camera so the footage wasn’t all that exciting. I may throw bits and pieces into future videos. I go to URE quite a lot for testing. It would be cool to meet up! Contact me through Facebook or email me through the link in description.
I was going to buy a used 2016 Land Rover LR4. BUT not anymore!!! Holy cow! I Don't intend to ever go this extreme, but it's nice to know Ford made a vehicle that competes and is 10x more reliable!
This guy is amazing! He makes it look so easy… he could probably get a Ford Taurus up this trail!
Your insane! Spectacular content! Had me sweating to. 😅
This is awesome. I have a BS Badlands with 30" Falken AT3's. Don't have a lift yet, but considering it. Not looking to do anything this wild, but good to know what's possible when SHTF.
You have 30’s under a stock lifted badlands??
What exact size are you running? Thanks
I ordered mine with the stock tires of course, but since its winter, they asked if I wanted winter tires put so I said yes. When they delivered to my house I never checked size but after running around through the snowy trails (and getting it bottomed out because I backed into snow covered ruts, I looked and they're 225's!! So I'm an inch or more lower than its supposed to be and probably 2" lower than when I put 245's on it.
I need to know that exact size please! I have a Badlands as well and want to max out tire size
Sorry everyone...didn't get notice of these comments. I have 245/65R17. OD is 30.0" width 10.0". No lift (other than the badlands additional inch over other models). No rub, lock to lock and I've taken it desert running (hit bump stops on the washboard with no hits on treads)
@@PG-lf3rr Thanks for the info!!
So many reasons never go alone. I've seen jeeps left a couple of days , Only to find it either stripped or some Charley Heston used it for target practice.
I'm surprised how darn great it did
From Raptor school we learned to turn off traction control to give it better throttle response. No dead pedal.
Nobody ever mentions the off-road screen that will give you all your angles. It’s awesome. What drive mode were you in?
An appropriate set of tires and rims would go a long way for traction and clearance. Maybe a 1" suspension lift would be in order. I have an old Bronco for wheeling. So a Bronco Sport would be a great addition to my quiver. Thanks for taking the time and risking damaging your rig. Great video..!
This bronco has a 1.5” lift and 30.5” tires
The one thing that keeps me from having a Bronco Sport in my driveway is the tow capacity. Maxes out at 2200 lbs. You can get the Escape with the same engine rated at 3500 lbs. I don't intend on doing any serious off-road with one but it would be nice to tow the side by side (wolverine x2 xtr @ 1700lbs plus trailer weight). The Maverick you can get the 4K tow rating but in order to get the dual clutch rear locker like the Bronco Sport they force you to buy it in the Tremor package which then drops the Maverick down to 2k tow. Each model is so close to checking off all the boxes but not quite.
Impressive !!
Did you try with the traction control off when you went through the mud pit? I just bought a brand new 2022 bronco sport and I love it. Very impressive. Thanks for the content. Just curious if you took off the traction control when you couldn't make it?
I have the same question, having the traction control off and stick to manual first gear might be the key.
Any plans on making a custom bumper to give you a bit better approach angle? I took mine out to Bulldog Canyon here in Phoenix and it made it the whole way! Some minor scrapes on the bottom but it never let me down. This was on stock height as well, looking forward to getting a lift and maybe a tad bigger sidewall.
Nicely done! I've been wanting a cherokee trailawk but an a loyal Fusion driver and Expedition owner as well. The bronco is kind of growing on me - a little.
get the trailhawk
@@boblozaintherealworld3577 thx Bob, after test driving and weighing my life rt now, I'm going to go with the Cherokee X. I don't quite need skid plates yet, and can use that 3mpg. When I've gotten used to some groomed trail driving and the kids are further out of the nest I'll upgrade !
@@JasonWjddphotography nice choice. the bronco gets good notices, but i'm a cherokee TH guy (2020) and currently using it to drive thru piles of snow just to get into town just three miles away (6700' elev). maybe this spring i'll take it up into the neighboring hills. good luck to you.
awesome!!
@HRG TV its 'the' best offroading video for bronco sport that I've ever seen. Im hooked & subscribed. Amazing content, would've like a bit more of outside perspective of the vehicle when tackling trails but I understand the limitation when doing solo filming. Kudos!!
Thanks, our local off-road park just opened back up for the 2022 season, so we are super excited to get back out there and test some more. 2.5 inch lift kit incoming!
@@hrg_tv 2.5" for the BS Badlands? Are we going to have to tune the engine to perform better with even larger tires? I'm already looking at tuners for my 2.0 EcoBoost.
Sand mode allows more wheelspin for that mud bog. You should try it in sand mode. Or maybe Normal with Traction control Off?
We're gonna have to take the sports out for an overlanding trip now that it's getting warmer. We are already planning an Appalachian trip.
Just bought a BS with Badlands off-road trim. This was impressive and you’re an experienced off-road driver so I wouldn’t attempt this. Plus the 1” lift helps along with the off-road tires. Thanks for the video!
Do you have a video of the Bronco Sport driving in snowy conditions?
Great video. And what timing I’m thinking about buying a bronco sport Badland for my Dailey driver. It’s nice to know its capability even though the worst I’ll do is drive through my local mall parking lot.
Booyah 👊🏽😁, is your bronco sport a 3 or 4 cylinder?
Do you make maverick lifts, for the hybrid models?
YES.
www.hrgoffroad.com/1-5-inch-38mm-lift-kit-for-2022-ford-maverick/
Are you aired down at all in this video? It looks like the tires are at full pressure but I know that in video's it can sometimes be deceiving. My wife has the Badlands and we'll be doing some lift/tires and such at some point. That's how I found my way to your videos. Thanks for the information.
Seems like bumper trims are needed for these things. I just got a Base today and plan to lift it and trim the bumper.
In Mud I use “Sand Mode” because it defeats the traction control and lets you give full throttle. Also I use 4WD Lock and Diff Lock at the same time
Impressive
Very capable for such a little fella!
It looks like I made the right choice what lift kit did you put on that great video bro

So...a year later and my BS badlands goes to the dealership for its RC lift kit. I was told its not as good as yours or the new one from woolworth motorsport out of las vegas. But..installed at the dealership for less than $1000. Now as a retired tank mechanic of 36 years as well as looking at the other rigs I build on my channel, you can see I could of installed it. I thought though, for $500 I ain't crawling around in the dirt! LOL!! 14 April it goes in!! Also, I have learned as well that if in deep mud or snow, brake torque it first and it has a massive amount of power. Just step on it though? Feels like a tiny 4cyl. LOL!!!
Did you have your traction control turned on when you got stopped by the mud bog (by the computer taking away your throttle)?
I'd love if you could try it with the jeep renegade or compass trailhawk.. just for comparison
Impressive for what it is.
That happens when 4 wheels are with no traction. 14:45 The engine just give no power no matter if it is wet or dry.
Maybe an inch would have made the difference. The ECU wouldn't notice the pressure of the body touching the ground so much.
I destroyed my bumper 5 days new.
way late on this but maybe attempt it in normal mode with the traction control on. If it's not trying to redistribute the power based on its mode programming; you may just get it to bite.
I drove the Big Bend for 3 years. Just traded for the Badlands. The difference is noticeable from the first minute. With the Badlands, you get a bigger engine and way more power, better suspension and off road capabilities. Totally different vehicles like night and day. I wasn't impressed at all with the Big Bend. The Badlands changed my mind almost instantly.
Would like to see the competition between a Cherokee KL Trailhawk. Comparing the two on these trails.
I suspected this thing would perform better than many would expect. I kind of think it should have been named Bronco II.
"Hello, how are you? I apologize as I don't speak English. I own a 2021 Bronco Sport, and I'm thinking about installing a 1.5-inch lift. I'm wondering if it will fit on the original wheels to use BFGoodrich All-Terrain 245/75R17 tires?
How much tire clearance do you have at full lock and full articulation and have you tried a larger diameter tire, like a 245/75/16 or a 245?70/17?
It has plenty of clearance. A bigger tire would fit with some trimming but honestly I’d rather not sacrifice the gearing. My Speedo is dead on with these tires too, according to a gps speedo app
Thanks so much for this confidence-builder! My Badlands is due to arrive here in CT next week, and I cannot conceal my excitement! Btw, what wheels are you sporting?
Do you know of any good off road spots in CT? I'm in CT all the time and will be cross shopping a bronco sport badlands and the Outback/Forester wilderness and would be fun to actually hit the dirt.
@@adam-to5re Adam, I'm a total greenhorn when it comes to off-roading, but I hope to try out some trails in RI/CT/MA/NH come spring and summer. Sorry!
This video means the Bronco Sport should be MORE then capable for anything I would ever do. I want to go off road but never really want to go rock climbing or go through bogs 2 feet deep.
Is there a reason to do a coil over lift kit? I feel like the ride of the BS is horrible and a coil over lift could help it a lot.
how'd you get from 10:54 to the next section? What sliders are those?
Is the 2.5” lift kit compatible with the Bronco Sport Base?
The maverick is coming out with tremor version that takes bronco bs badlands equipment. I cant wait see the comparison people do and the testing
Maybe a look at the damage done?
This made me want a bronco sport 😂think im gunna testdrive one this weekend maybe a jeep renegade trailhawk to compare
WOW! Scary
Supposedly in Sand Mode it will let you keep some wheel spin / speed, and you might have been able to do it with the Sand Mode.
Can confirm.
I tried it in the snow and none of the modes or disabling advance trac would allow it to spin for long.
You think its better than the outback wilderness?
Unbelievable. Is the Badlands the only trim with locking diffs?
Yes. Although they are not locking diffs in the traditional sense. It is more electronic and less mechanical. Call it what you will, the results are proof that the system is effective.
dude you got balls as steelie as that bronco sports prowness
great job great video great ford
#BADLANDS is the way to go with! I own one my self very great off road vehicle!! #Ford is the best way to go!!!
I want to see a side beside comparison of the Bronco Sport Badlands VS a 4 door base Wrangler. I think the results might surprise some people. ;)
The bronco would dominate a jeep with open diffs. But against a rubicon it would fall short. I’ve driven a Wrangler Rubicon, a Wrangler Sport, as well as a Gladiator Rubicon on 37s in Moab Utah and in the Nevada/California desert. I can tell you the difference between the Rubicons and Sport is vast. I plan on getting out to Moab this year with the Bronco and doing a matchup against my Raptor. Should be fun!
A base Wrangler of any year, with max-sized siped MTs aired down, bars disconnected, and cheap lunchbox lockers installed, could likely cruise all over this stuff without issue.
It's that easy to make a base Wrangler of any generation a relative offroad beast.
This video makes as much sense as wearing a windbreaker in a blizzard.
'showing off for the jeep guys'. that says it for me.
There is a HUGE difference between AWD and 4WD. I have never gotten stuck with a 4WD but have a few times with AWD
Looks like some sort of damage under the driver side front wheel at the 9:49 mark
You going to slap 2.5" lift on it?
Is it me, or does the Bronco Sport look like what a modern day LR Discovery should have looked like? 🤔
The sport and maverick are much more capable than people thought. 99% of people will not offroad trails like this.
