I personally own a 2022 Big Bend w/ the convenience package and I absolutely love it. I have experienced both the Big Bronco, Bronco Sport, as well as the Raptor and can say that the sport definitely feels like a younger brother, but if you take into consideration who it was made for, it make perfect sense. The Sport is made for the city driver, who wants the feel and look of a rugged crossover without the price tag that comes with owning a serious off-road vehicle like the Wrangler or Standard Bronco. It's made for the young professional who lives in the city but likes to go camping now and again or tailgating with friend on the weekends. It's perfect for long road trips, or for those who enjoy light overlanding in scenic areas. Overall, it doesn't try to be a Standard Bronco, rather it gives the Bronco branding another type of audience it can appeal to. Personally, I couldn't be happier owning mine!
I don't mind the vehicle itself, but the name is just a completely idiotic move by Ford. This should've been the next Escape instead of whatever that hatchback thing they are trying to sell. Having two completely different vehicles with the same name is just typical silly Ford doing silly Ford things. "Sport" is a trim level, not a name for a whole new vehicle.
Wow thank you for the informative review I just started working at a dealership and bought a 2023 ford bronco big bend with added convenience package in shadow black with medium gray interior. Love it never had a vehicle this nice in my life it’s crazy ! I wanted to thank you for ending on a positive note in your video and I need prayer to help overcome negativity from others and not let it eat me alive inside I tend to bottle things up. Stay blessed and healthy and thank you
Got a 2023 Big Bend for my wife with convenience package and trailer hitch. She loves it. It's a capable little SUV. With that being said it would be nice if it had the same cargo space as the Escape. I'm thinking it will get bigger with the refresh as Ford is discontinuing the Escape.
I have a 2021 Outer Banks trim and I love it. You did a really a great review but I would like to point out a tiny accessory. I the cargo area on the right hand side (4:47) is a built in bottle opener! Another feature from Ford anticipating people tailgating with this SUV.
Thanks for the review! I'm buying one in Panama 🇵🇦 and I needed a to hear a full review from someone other than the salesperson 😅 thanks again for that and the scripture reading ❤
I have the bronco sport badlands 2021, the first year model bought in july 2021 and it is working really great. The car is 100% reliable. I love it as well. At the end of This year 2024 i will put some tires Falken A/T 3w off road. I don’t want to switch the tires 2 times a year (mandatory winter tires in Quebec) despite having good bridgestone dm v2 blizzak and the original Pirelli.i will try to sell the tires to buy the falken that work for all 4 season here in Canada. If someone want to buy a bronco sport badlands i recomnend putting the Falken immediately instead of winter tires. You will save money. The falken are very good and solid and quiet and very good in all conditions and terrain inclyding highway, snow and ice, gravel, mud.
They ride decent and are nice if you don't want/ need a giant offroad bronco because lets face it, most people that buy the offroad one don't see mud or dirt a single time.
My new 2024 Badlands (and earlier?) rear view mirror greatly blocks forward vision. I don't like this. Also, transmission in "normal" GOAT mode is punchy - not smooth. Steering is too tight. I come from a 2005 Chevy Tahoe which ran great but had rare oddball electrical issues.
Have you found any of the major recalls to be a issue for purchasing the bronco sport? Obivously the main ones being a faulty fuel injector with the 3 cylinder model, and the Power train: Automatic transmission: Control module (tcm/pcm/tecm). Ive also heard about the seals around the duel clutch system. Thoughts?
This looks like a great secondary vehicle for someone who owns a Rubicon 392/ Bronco Raptor because realistically you wouldn't want to daily either and wear down tires and rack mileage especially since you live a solid hour away from next nearest main city. Like me.
@@AlphaSharkI feel like there are other options for a secondary vehicle, but honestly I wouldn't mind :)) if "Offroad" and "Gas efficient" ever got mixed together it would be great 😂
I had the "opportunity" to rent one of these from my favorite car rental company. Short story short, I did not like it at all, and when I revisited the city a few months later, all but one were gone, either through a massive recall notice or the more common "drive it away from here and leave it somewhere else, please" routine. My gripe was that it felt underpowered, cheap, and full of afterthoughts. I don't like to use the word "hate," but this new generation Bronco came oh-so- oh look, there's a Gladiator. I feel a little bit better now.
Love the Bronco but its made in Mexico so it wont last.And any vehicle made in Mexico shouldn't cost this much.There is a good reason why the Mustang will never be made there.Like the Mustang the Bronco should only be made in America.
I'm gonna push back a little Greg and say that statement is stereotypical. I think solid vehicles can be built in Mexico and garbage vehicles can be built in America. Chevrolet has most of their plants in Detroit and the transmissions and interior build quality have been terrible recently! I know many owners that have issues. And my '19 Tacoma is built in Mexico and it's got nearly 70,000 miles on it with exactly 0 issues.
@@AlphaShark Toyota is the only one so far to prove this no other brand has.I own a 2016 Honda fit ex and its better than the previous model in every way but if you look at 2014 models made in Japan and compare them to ones made in 2015 or a few years newer made in Mexico there is no comparison the made in Japan one is better.In Canada our Mazda cx-5 is made in Japan and is Lexus like . Mazda cars here are just not as good quality but still ok.
Great review. I think they made these to be the ladies version of the Bronco. There are a lot of nice features, but if you're a guy your buddies are gonna make fun of if you buy one. :))
Haha if your friends are gonna razz you more than once for buying one of these you need better friends. That's why I made that joke in the beginning, it's not a full Bronco, but it's not trying to be. Saying this is the "ladies version" sounds like you're saying ladies aren't as cool? 0_o
Oh, that's not what I meant at all. It's just smaller, easier to park. Good for shopping and running errands, but still capable for fun times occasionally. Honestly, this is probably more than enough for most guys, but guys generally wanna take things to the extreme. Usually for bragging right more than anything else. :))@@AlphaShark
Every car ever made has had failures within the first 10k miles. Doesn’t mean every single transmission is rated for 10k miles. 😂 when you get older you will understand Shane.

Well said. This car has its place, and I think it is definitely underrated.

How reliable the 1.5 3 cylinder is?

Thanks for your review. I ordered mine this morning. First new car in almost 25 years. I’m kind of thrifty. You have a pleasant voice.
The glass openning should be STANDARD on SUV's. I loved my 2017 escape bit so sad to see that feature go compared to the 2003 I had before.
It is a shame it’s not, you’d hope it would be.
Great review and thank you most of all for sharing the word of God. Was unexpected and well appreciated.
Thanks for the review! I'm buying one in Panama 🇵🇦 and I needed a to hear a full review from someone other than the salesperson 😅 thanks again for that and the scripture reading ❤
No problem!
I have bronco sport big bend base model 23 I love it !
I love that green color.
Good review, I liked how you went over a lot of the interior items that you just cant see in the photos.
I just bought a 2024 Bronco Sport Big Bend. I love it just wish it had fog lamps
i just bought a big bend and it was fog lights... you just dont have the convenience package added
I got the 2023 Badlands edition and I absolutely love it! I'm always looking for an excuse to drive it. Highly recommend!

Bought a 2023 and I love it
Thank you for your Knowledge reviewing this Bronco. Looking into this being my next vehicle!
I like the color on this one.
Right? I'm a fan too
I have this one in green and i absolutely love it. 9200 km so far. ❤

I don’t own this specific Bronco, I just review the vehicles. I don’t always follow recalls closely for every car.
Me and the wife have Bronco Sports and love them
Great review, does it come with a turbo charged 3 cylinder? Stay Encouraged and be blessed. Amos 5:15
depending on the trim you can get a 2.0 liter 4 cylinder eco turbo charged enging, or a 1.5 liter 3 cylinder tubo charged eco engine
Thanks Isaac! I'll be praying for you.
great review Isaac👊
This looks like a great secondary vehicle for someone who owns a Rubicon 392/ Bronco Raptor because realistically you wouldn't want to daily either and wear down tires and rack mileage especially since you live a solid hour away from next nearest main city. Like me.
So you're saying you would buy one?
@@AlphaSharkI feel like there are other options for a secondary vehicle, but honestly I wouldn't mind :)) if "Offroad" and "Gas efficient" ever got mixed together it would be great 😂
They need to seel a hybrid version.

Why does this
Look like a rover

Over priced and there’s no leg room in the back
No leg room!? How tall are you? 7 feet?
Wow, for a channel called AlphaShark, this guy is the least Alpha guy I know 😂. From that opening "hi" to calling the quickness of the bronco "spiffy"
I know right? That guy is such a beta loser! 😂
lol the end.... wow Love animals don't eat them.... meat is murder

@@josephstarnes8747yea only women run errands and buy things, amaright 💪🏽💪🏽
Real men don’t make misogynistic terms like, “ladies car.”
Maybe so. But the ads I've seen have ladies driving the Bronco Sport. Blame Ford for the perceived misogyny. @@matthewoaks2328
These things are junk. I rode in an Uber one that was brand new and it already needed a new transmission is what the driver told me😂
Wow!
Every car ever made has had failures within the first 10k miles. Doesn’t mean every single transmission is rated for 10k miles. 😂 when you get older you will understand Shane.
Yet it has solid reliability ratings and you have no clue how the driver cared for it?
I live in the Bay Area of CA and I've seen New BMW & Mercedes broken down. All cars can break down..
