Review
The 2022 Ford Bronco is a superior compact crossover for blending metropolitan living and open-air recreational escapades. Designed like a miniature copy of the large-sized Ford Bronco – which in and of itself is a classic version of retro Broncos – the tinier trim brings attention. Its pickup-like design yields high returns on the interior where both headroom, as well as cargo space, are commodious.
Additionally, the integration of practical attributes like secret repository compartments and fold-out work station are distinct features. AWD comes standard, but the powerful turbo-four motor is preserved for the high-end model.
What to Expect for 2022?
One year after its initiation, Ford is refraining from implementing any drastic adjustments to the 2022 Bronco Sport lineup. And no one here is complaining about it.
Price and Which One to Buy
The Badlands remains the most pricey trim, but on the same token, it’s also the model that’s most competent off-road. Coupled with a 245hp supercharged four motor – the more powerful of the two available powerplants – and a bolstered AWD system, the Badlands offers a raised suspension and improved dampers for managing coarse and challenging landscapes.
The Base model begins at a modest $28,910, and the Badlands trim goes for as much as $35,585, respectively.
Motor, Performance, and Transmission
The 2022 Bronco Sport cruises on the platform that establishes the compact Escape, and each trim possesses AWD. A 181hp, supercharged, three-cylinder is the foundational motor, but a 245hp turbo four-cylinder is accessible as well.
Each match with an 8-speed instant transmission, but the more potent motor offers mounted paddle shifters for the steering wheel in addition to enhanced cooling elements.
The Bronco has the capability to tow 2000 to 2200lbs. And the elite Badlands model provides an arrangement of high-class gear such as a twin-clutch rear-drive piece with a distinctive lock. Furthermore, it packs tires for all-terrain environments affixed on 17” wheels, a one-inch raised suspension for additional ground clearance, as well as shock absorbers.
Real-World MPG and Fuel Economy
The three-piston chamber Ford Bronco Sport is ranked at 25mpg in city and 28mpg on the freeway. The more potent, four-piston chamber model relinquishes those numbers to 21 mpg city and 26 freeway.
We took the small-scale motor on the 75mph route, which is a segment of the extensive evaluation regimen, and it came back an astounding 33mpg freeway.
Interior, Cargo, and Comfort
On the interior, the 2022 Ford Bronco displays an appealing composition as well as a myriad of high-end attributes. The ute offers a splendid quantity of space and many interesting rearrangements. The baby Bronco boasts upright seats in addition to an ample amount of legroom in the rear seats. Similarly, its raised roofline offers extra headroom and commodious cargo space to accommodate two bikes.
The space for cargo can also be equipped with a fold-out workstation that also acts as a dinner table. Additionally, a power supply of 200-watts, as well as LED lights, come as standard equipment within the rear gate.
Moreover, the rear gate offers a hatch and bottle opener. And the Badlands trim offers washable, rubber floors and tapestry that offers easy maintenance.
Infotainment and Connectedness
Each Bronco offers an 8” touchscreen display that bolsters Ford’s Sync software. It’s stock equipment that also comes with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. However, it can also be improved with satellite radio, SiriusXM, in addition to a Bang and Olufsen sound system.
Furthermore, the infotainment system also offers voice activation commands and can be run with the manual buttons option as well.

The 2022 Bronco Sport offers a myriad of driver-assistance features that include conventional forward-collision alert and instant emergency braking.
- Conventional blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic warning
- Conventional lane-departure alert and lane-keeping assist
- Adjustable cruise control with stop-and-go smart technology
