When the great outdoors calls, you need an SUV that can traverse through the elements and different terrains with ease. The 2022 Ford Bronco Sport packs the performance and versatility needed for this job, along with a comfortable cabin and some of the most advanced tech features available in any crossover vehicle today. For a better breakdown, here’s a quick guide on the 2022 Bronco Sport and some of its most exciting standout features.

Strong Performance

Regardless of whether you’re taking to dirt trails or pavement, the Bronco Sport is ready for it all thanks to its two different engine choices, 8-speed automatic transmission, and standard four-wheel-drive powertrain. The base engine is a 181-horsepower 1.5-liter, while a 2.0-liter with 249 horsepower is also available.

To save on fuel, both engines feature Auto Start-Stop Technology, and you can tow up to 2,200 pounds with the 2.0-liter engine. H.O.S.S., a suspension system geared towards off-road driving, comes standard in all models, as does a five-mode terrain traction system, which comes with seven modes in the rock-tackling Badlands model.


Trail-Ready Design

Ford also designed this SUV’s interior with off-road activities in mind, so in addition to its spacious five-seater cabin, rubberized flooring is available with drain plugs, so you can quickly rinse out the dirt after taking to the trails. The second-row seats also fold flat if you should need more room for camping equipment or groceries.

A safari-style roof, as well as a heavy-duty steel roof, are both available, so you can decide if you’d rather have more space for cargo or a sturdy surface to camp out on above the vehicle.


Decadent Technology

For making phone calls while on the road or toggling through music playlists, you can connect your smartphone wirelessly to the vehicle’s SYNC 3 infotainment system. An available Wi-Fi hotspot is also available, so you and your family members or friends can connect to the internet simultaneously with your personal devices.

While charging your phone with the wireless charging pad, you can also keep a lookout for obstacles or animals on the trail around you with the split-view 180-degree camera.


Superior Safety Features

Many of the Bronco Sport’s standard and available safety features are ahead of their time. No longer will you have to remember to turn your high beams off for other vehicles or when lighting conditions change because the Auto High-Beam Headlamps can automatically do this for you.

There’s also Pre-Collision Assist with Active Emergency Braking, which can detect when obstacles are in your path and can then bring the vehicle to a stop when necessary. If there isn’t enough time to stop, the Evasive Steering Assist feature will then kick into action and will attempt to quickly steer your vehicle around an obstacle or other vehicle to avoid a collision.

The 2022 Bronco Sport has quickly earned its status as a first-class off-road SUV, thanks to its rugged design, robust performance, and phenomenal technology.
