The 2021 Ford Bronco is a throwback SUV in all the best ways.

Pros
Bronco’s back
Awesome retro looks
Removable doors and roof
Sturdy powertrains
Ready to hit the trail out of the box

Cons
How much will top trims cost?
How bouncy will the ride be?
Swing gate could be a problem in cities
Fuel economy not likely to be great
No word on hybrids, yet

Ford resurrects the Bronco nameplate for 2021, and it emulates the old-school vibe and off-road pedigree of its iconic mid-1960's predecessors. Now that Ford has revealed the thing, we have a much better idea of its capabilities and specifications. The new Bronco will arrive in dealerships in spring 2021.The base two-door Bronco starts at just under $30,000, but upgrading to upper trims gets expensive quickly. Our ideal configuration would be a four-door with the more powerful engine, and it needs to have the off-road hardware to live up to its roots. That points us towards the Bronco Wildtrack, which comes standard with 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels and huge 35-inch mud-terrain tires.
