In a market where the Jeep has dominated for years, the Ford Bronco is entering in the off-road segment as a strong competitor. Making its comeback after years of retirement, the revamped Ford Bronco has re-emerged as a Jackson, AL area all-terrain vehicle. Featuring an exterior design that is like that of the Jeep Wrangler and consists of removable exterior doors, buyers now have another option to choose from in this arena. While this is great for Grove Hill, AL and Thomasville, AL buyers, it is not so good for the Jeep Wrangler that once consumed this market space.
Lets see how the Jeep Wrangler stacks up when slated toe to toe against the revamped Ford Bronco.
Exterior Design and Stability
While we all know that the wheelbase and suspension of a vehicle greatly determines its overall stability and recovery abilities, this means quite a bit when you are an off-road adventure fanatic. The Ford Bronco features a slightly wider wheelbase giving it a more stable foundation when going over rocks and uneven Mobile, AL terrain. Yet, when you select a Wrangler model with two doors the wheelbase extends allowing it to exceed the width of the Bronco. With the Sasquatch Package, the Ford Bronco lengthens out and widens ever more than the two-door Wrangler. As one can see, these two vehicles are fierce competitors in many aspects.
Performance Comparison
These two vehicles similarly offer an available turbocharged V6, but the engine that each comes standard with varies a bit. The Jeep Wrangler sticks to its trusted 3.6-liter V6 that can produce up to 285 horsepower, which excels over the Ford Broncos 2.3-liter I-4 that falls short in its production of 270 horsepower. When you are out crawling up rough terrain or digging yourself out of a ditch, every little bit of horsepower matters. Buyers who frequently find themselves in these adventurous situations in Monroeville, AL and Baldwin County, AL would fare much better with the Jeep Wrangler.
The Final Verdict
We could compare the Jeep Wrangler and Ford Bronco all day. These two vehicles are very similar in many aspects, yet each possess a few unique features that set it apart from the other. Though the final decision is up to you, we would recommend the Jeep Wrangler over the Ford Bronco.
