2022 Ford Bronco

Price Range: $24,222 - $59,700

Good

The 2022 Ford Bronco is a highly capable off-roader that makes minimal sacrifices to on-road drivability. Downsides include fuel economy, wind noise, braking distances and some cheap-looking interior materials. Otherwise the Bronco is enjoyable to drive and easy to live with. From its character and design to its helpful drive modes and wide availability of its off-road package, the Bronco is the best buy among its competition for most shoppers.

Overview

Written by automotive expert Mark Takahashi

Updated: 6/17/2022

The Ford Bronco is easily one of the most highly sought-after vehicles on sale today, and it's not all hype. Its all-terrain prowess is impressive, even when compared to the seemingly unstoppable Jeep Wrangler. And just like the Wrangler, the Bronco has a removable roof and doors, so you can drive topless for that extra bit of sunshine while on the street or tackling a trail.

You can get the standard Bronco with one of two turbocharged engines. Four-wheel drive is standard, and a seven-speed manual transmission is available for those who want to row their own gears. Even more exciting for off-road enthusiasts is the Sasquatch trim, which stands as a capable rival to both the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon and the Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. There are also tons of accessories from Ford and aftermarket manufacturers to customize your Bronco to your heart's desire.

The core Bronco lineup grows this year with the addition of the Everglades trim, which includes a few optional packages, plus a snorkel and unique graphics. You can also now get the Sasquatch package in conjunction with the manual transmission — a combo not offered last year. The big news, of course, is the introduction of the Bronco Raptor trim level. Like the F-150 Raptor before it, the Bronco Raptor is aimed at increasing the vehicle's high-speed off-road capabilities. Upgrades are highlighted by a more powerful V6 engine, high-performance Fox shocks, protective plates for the engine and transmission, and unique interior appointments.

There aren't a lot of other rivals with off-road chops like the Bronco or Wrangler. The short list includes the 4Runner and the much more expensive Land Rover Defender. The Bronco is easily our favorite in this rather exclusive class. Our Expert Rating clearly spells out why and also where some improvements can be made. Really, the Bronco's scarcity and outrageous dealer markups are the only reasons we'd look elsewhere.

What's it like to live with?

We got our hands on a 2021 Ford Bronco First Edition and are excited to spend 20,000 miles with it in our long-term review fleet. We're putting the Bronco through its paces and checking out where it shines and where it comes up short. We also plan to find out who on the team most excels at cleaning crusted dirt off brushed steel. Check out our experiences with our 2021 Ford Bronco First Edition here.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Good

7.9

out of 10

We drove the 2022 Ford Bronco on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

7.5/10

How does the Bronco drive? Whether you stick with the turbo four-cylinder or opt for the turbo V6, the Bronco has sufficient and smooth power for daily driving with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission. The extra oomph from the V6 makes on-ramps and short merges easier and more fun, and the V6 Bronco reaches 60 mph from a standstill in 7.3 seconds, an average showing considering the big tires and four-door configuration.

Jumping hard on the brakes produces plenty of nosedive — normal for off-road SUVs — though emergency stopping distances were much longer than we'd like. From 60 mph, a panic stop took 146 feet — we typically see that kind of distance with heavy-duty pickup trucks. It should be noted that our test Bronco was equipped with the Sasquatch off-road package and its rugged tires, but other Broncos we've tested with less aggressive rubber only stopped a mere 10 feet shorter — that's still longer than we'd like to see.

The real star is the steering. Thanks to an independent front suspension, the Bronco's steering wheel relays confidence and stability to its driver at freeway speeds. While you shouldn't expect excitement on curvy roads, you'll appreciate that the steering on long-distance drives won't leave you fatigued.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the Bronco? While far from a luxury vehicle, the Bronco is more comfortable on the road than an equivalent Jeep Wrangler, its most direct competitor. The Bronco's seats feature better support and enough adjustments to reduce fatigue on long freeway drives. A truck-based construction means the ride is a bit firmer and bouncier than in other SUVs, but not enough to make you want to drive it any less.

The available, and effective, dual-zone climate control allows you to adjust the intensity of the auto setting, and the heated front seats work extremely fast, which is excellent if you've got the doors off on a cold day. The removable hardtop lets in a significant amount of wind noise at pretty much any speed, dragging down the Bronco's score in this category. There were also several rattles and vibrations during our off-road testing.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? Like other off-road vehicles, getting in and out of the Bronco can require a decent step up or down, but there are plenty of grab handles placed throughout the cabin to help. We'd prefer the front grab handles be placed on the windshield pillars instead of the dashboard, but they'll do in a pinch. Inside, the generous adjustment ranges for the driver's seat and steering wheel will ensure that all controls and gauges are within easy view. We appreciate the large and chunky physical controls — their size and placement make them easy to see and use when you're wearing gloves.

Lots of headroom makes the Bronco's interior feel large. This feeling continues in the rear seat, even in two-door models, but accessing those seats in the two-door Bronco can feel like a pinch because the front seats don't slide forward far enough.

Technology

8/10

How’s the tech? There's the usual mix of standard and available driver's aids, including adaptive cruise control and exterior cameras. On top of that, the Bronco is available with a suite of useful off-road driver aids that can be individually controlled by experienced drivers or automatically deployed by the vehicle through different drive modes for novices. Unfortunately, we found some of the systems, including the adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist, are poorly tuned.

Otherwise, the Bronco benefits from the latest Ford infotainment and connectivity software. The center display boasts clean graphics and easy integration with Android and Apple smartphones whether you want to use a cable or go wireless. The stereo in our test vehicle had trouble covering up road noise at freeway speeds.

Storage

7/10

How’s the storage? The Bronco's bigger size compared to the Wrangler translates into a larger interior with more cargo volume. But the four-door Bronco has a touch less space than the similarly sized Toyota 4Runner. The Bronco's rear swing gate opens to the passenger side and stays in place thanks to a strut. On hardtop models, the rear glass folds up easily, but the soft top doesn't open as far and needs a prop rod to stay up.

Interior storage options are adequate, with an appropriate number of cupholders and nooks and crannies for personal items. The netting on the door pockets is too shallow for most water bottles. The front seatbacks on some models have Molle-style attachment points for hanging equipment.

An optional trailer hitch that includes four- and seven-pin connectors gives the Bronco the ability to tow up to 3,500 pounds. A trailer brake controller is not included but is available as an accessory. All Broncos can be flat-towed (all four wheels on the ground).

Fuel Economy

6.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? Because it's a newer vehicle with a 10-speed automatic transmission, we expected better from the Bronco's fuel economy. Four-cylinder Broncos have an EPA-estimated fuel economy ranging from 17 to 20 mpg combined. Similarly, six-cylinder versions range from 17 mpg combined to 19 mpg combined. Generally these figures are lower than those for comparable Jeep Wrangler models.

Our test vehicle, a four-door First Edition Bronco with the 2.7-liter V6, had an EPA estimate of 17 mpg. We were able to match that estimate in mixed driving, but aside from the Jeep's V8-powered 392, that's a lower estimate than any Wrangler you can buy.

Value

7/10

Is the Bronco a good value? Some people might be disappointed with a few cheap-looking interior materials in the Bronco, especially in higher-end models, but others may see the benefit to long-term durability when the interior is exposed to the elements. The Bronco delivers off-road hardware more broadly through its pricing spectrum than the Jeep Wrangler, providing greater access for shoppers at different price points. It should be noted, though, that our test vehicle was a First Edition Bronco that cost over $60,000. That's a big price tag, but thankfully it comes with pretty much all the standard and optional equipment that the Bronco offers.

Warranty and ownership perks are about average with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. The corrosion warranty lasts five years regardless of mileage, and roadside assistance is provided for five years or 60,000 miles.

Wildcard

10/10

The Bronco offers praiseworthy capability and character in equal measure. Its rugged design looks cool without trying too hard. As with the Wrangler, removing the Bronco's roof and doors makes for a highly enjoyable driving experience, but the Bronco has more on-road appeal with its superior ride and handling.

The off-road driver aids not only welcome rookies, but tools such as the Trail Turn Assist add genuine fun even for seasoned off-roaders. And if getting a manual transmission wasn't a bragging right already, the Bronco does one better by giving you a super high-ratio crawler gear.

2022 Ford Bronco trim level differences

The Ford Bronco is a four-wheel-drive SUV available in seven primary trim levels: Base, Big Bend, Black Diamond, Outer Banks, Badlands, Wildtrak and Everglades. All are available as either a two-door or a four-door and can be kitted out with a long list of options, ranging from appearance and personalization options to different roofs to off-road hardware, wheels and other accessories. There's also an eighth trim called the Raptor, which adds a more powerful engine and a copious amount of off-road hardware. Highlighted features include: Compare the 2022 Ford Bronco trim levels in-depth.

Which Bronco trim does Edmunds recommend?

The Big Bend trim gets our vote. Besides the multi-mode terrain management system, it also gains some minor interior upgrades that aren't included in the base model. As further enticement, it's eligible for the optional Mid and Sasquatch packages. If money is no object, however, the new Bronco Raptor adds serious style and performance that's hard to pass up.

Ford Bronco vs. Jeep Wrangler

The Jeep Wrangler is the poster child of off-road dominance, but so far it seems the Bronco is able to scale the same terrain with similar ease. Both are offered as two- and four-door models with a range of trim levels to fit your particular needs. The Bronco easily pulls ahead with its better on-road manners. Read Edmunds' long-term road test of the Jeep Wrangler.

Ford Bronco vs. Toyota 4Runner

The Toyota 4Runner can't quite match the Bronco when it comes to off-road performance, nor does it have a removable roof or doors. It's also slower. The main reason to get the 4Runner over the Bronco is if you need the extra cargo space or an available third-row seat.

Ford Bronco vs. Chevrolet Colorado

The Chevy Colorado may be a pickup, but its enclosed crew cab offers some of the same comfort and convenience benefits as the Bronco. We'd suggest opting for the off-road-capable ZR2 trim that should make it competitive with the Bronco. As an added bonus, the Colorado can be ordered with a powerful yet efficient diesel engine. Read Edmunds' long-term road test of the Chevrolet Colorado.
