If you’re looking for a subcompact SUV that’s ready for adventure, the 2023 Ford Bronco Sport has your name written all over it. This vehicle offers a really fun ride and is filled with surprising features that will make your journeys more enjoyable and more convenient.

Even the look of the Bronco Sport welcomes you to go off the beaten path and see what’s out there.

Ford is known for making tough, reliable vehicles, and the Bronco Sport is no exception.

Performance
Two Powerful and Efficient Engine Options
You’ll never feel bogged down by a sluggish ride in this vehicle. Under the hood of the 2023 Ford Bronco Sport, you’ll find an engine combining power with solid fuel economy. You can opt for a 1.5L Ecoboost Turbo I-3 or a 2.0L Ecoboost Turbo I-4. Either one will be paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, which makes it possible to take small steps when shifting gears to optimize power.
With the 1.5L engine, you get 25 MPG in the city and 28 MPG on the highway, which are impressive numbers for a vehicle in the SUV family. Ford made sure this vehicle had good fuel economy because they knew that road trip warriors were going to be interested in the Ford Bronco Sport, so it’s important drivers can go far without having to fill up too often here.
The Capability of the Bronco Sport
You can do some decent towing in this subcompact SUV, too. If you want to take a small camper with you for overnight adventures, you can, thanks to a maximum 2,200-pound towing capacity with the 2.0L engine. With standard four-wheel drive, the Ford Bronco Sport is ready to explore most terrain with you. The four-wheel drive system will help you gain better traction and reduce wheel slip in certain situations.
The terrain management system can help with that, too. The Bronco Sport offers several G.O.A.T. (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) modes to optimize performance in a variety of settings, with trims like the Badlands and Heritage Limited featuring seven of them. These modes include Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, Sand, Mud/Ruts, and Rock Crawl. With all of these different modes to choose from, there aren’t many terrains you can’t tackle in this impressive ride. Finally, the Ford Bronco Sport is capable of water-fording, thanks to its impressively high ground clearance and suspension system that’s built for this type of adventure. So go ahead––get a little messy with the 2023 Ford Bronco Sport.
Interior
Convenient and Comfortable Interior
You’ll enjoy the ride on the way to your adventure, too, and find it easy to load up the Bronco Sport with friends and cargo thanks to a well-planned interior. The 2023 Ford Bronco Sport is known for having tons of conveniently-placed and discreet storage spaces, like available zipper pockets behind the front seats and under-floor storage for stashing valuables. Plus, the second-row seats not only feature a 60/40 split for versatile cargo management, but they also fold flat for times you need to turn the whole rear area into a giant trunk. That can come in handy for times you want to camp out in the backseat. Overall, you’ll get a generous 65.2 cubic feet of available cargo space in the Ford Bronco Sport.
On the road, tall passengers will be comfortable thanks to the Safari-style roof that offers extra headroom, and everyone will be content in the contoured bucket seats that hug and support passengers nicely. The driver will enjoy a six-way manual driver seat that’s easy to set to the ideal position, and the front seat passenger will get a four-way manual adjustable seat.
Ford knows that Bronco Sport drivers want to pull over and take impromptu hikes and jump in a lake at the spur of the moment. That’s why they’ve made the vehicle available with easy-to-clean mats and even a rubberized cargo floor in the Big Bed model, as well as available rubber back seat protectors. That should help you wash the mud away after you get caught in the rain on a hike. When you want to enjoy some creature comforts after a long day of outdoor adventure, the Outer Banks model gets heated leather front seats and a heated steering wheel. Wherever your journey takes you, you’ll get a nice view of it all through the available power moonroof. It gives clear, panoramic views of the sights around your Bronco Sport.
Technology
Loaded Up With Driver-Assist Features
The 2023 Ford Bronco Sport might be rugged, but it’s still full of the latest tech from Ford. It’s loaded with great tech to help you get where you’re going safely and all the while entertained.
For starters, it has a standard rearview camera and an available 180-degree split view for an even better look at what’s happening around your vehicle. It also has the Ford Co-Pilot360 driver assist suite standard across the lineup. This has the Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert to notify you when other drivers are coming up on those tricky-to-see zones. That feature can greatly reduce the chances of a collision.
This suite of features also has LaneKeeping-Assist to notify you when you’re drifting out of your lane and nudge you back into it. You’ll get automatic high beams that turn on by themselves in low light settings, as well as Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking to help prevent frontal collision accidents. There are also several available driver assist features you can add, like adaptive cruise control that will maintain your speed and safe distance from other vehicles, and Evasive Steering Assist, which uses a camera and sensors to know when the vehicle should take over steering to avoid an accident.
Loaded Up With Tech Features
The 2023 Ford Bronco Sport is also going to have the SYNC 3 system. This has voice recognition, so you can give the vehicle simple voice commands like asking it to change the song or make a phone call. It also has available voice-activated navigation, letting you speak out where you’d like to go rather than typing it into the screen or a smartphone. You will see your directions show up on an eight-inch LCD touchscreen with crisp graphics. Also, when you veer off regular roads and onto trails, the GPS can recall your route to get you back to the main road. Plus, the navigation system has audible turn-by-turn directions, so you can keep your eye on the road at all times. Other nice tech features include an available wireless charging pad for a tidy, cord-free dash area and a Bang & Olufsen sound system to empower you to hear your music, podcast, or other audio files on your way to your destination.
