Harley Lover Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Not really new news, but seemingly confirmation of what has been discussed here and should put to bed alternative theories: https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/autos-suvs/ford-announces-baby-bronco-will-be-based-on-the-focus/ar-BBLK9V5?li=BBnbfcL&OCID=HPDHP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 (edited) Reaffirms my belief that Ford can do way more than trying to sell twice as many Escapes. Good for Ford I honestly that they sell as many as they can make Edited August 11, 2018 by jpd80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02MustangGT Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Calm down Snooter. This is baby Bronco...errr Maverick. And its just a rendering anyway based on the teaser rendering from Ford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Exactly right. Take that rendering with a grain of salt, it doesn't take much to be off with style / proportions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron W. Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) OK it's a rendering, but for those of us that have been around for a while (I'm 63) I hope they come up with a new name. That is not a Maverick or a Bronco ... Don't call it by either name. Edited August 11, 2018 by Ron W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) Territory for North America..... Territory is not C2..(unless Ford is throwing the umbrella over JMC platforms). but it could possibly be built down the same line if the build process is the same.

rmc523 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 That rendering reminds me of nothing related to rugged. 1) It's a rendering 2) This isn't Bronco 3) People will buy the "rugged" image whether it can actually do anything or not.

Kev-Mo Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 No less rugged than Renegade and Compass. And of course all those popular Subaru's that somehow the kids think are rugged. I think this rendering fits into the wannabe rugged crowd quite well. Just have to convince the millennial customer that there are other brands other than Subaru and Jeep. Most would not even put Ford on a consideration list. Will need some cool advertising to make a statement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just show it driving over a dirt road with a dog in the back and it'll sell itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
