2021 FORD BRONCO REVEALED: A CHANCE FOR A SCALE MODEL?

CAR FANS CAN APPLAUD Ford for bringing back the Bronco. The 2021 Bronco comes in plenty of variations, including our favourite doors-off open version.


SMN report: Ford designers went all the way back to the original Bronco of 1966 for inspiration. The classic roadster (below) clearly showed the way for a 2021 remake.

The first-generation Bronco also featured a three-door version (below), a style that is again echoed with the new 2021 version.

The 1986 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer edition (below) had many upscale features, such as the somewhat suburban two-tone paint.

 

The concept Bronco of 2004 (below) showed a real change of thinking for Ford designers, though it still retained broadly similar proportions. Hollywood hunk Dwayne Johnson drove it in his 2018 movie Rampage.

The 2021 Bronco (below) includes a masterstroke – doors that remove simply and completely. Just right for sun worshippers like this writer. Roof rails (bottom) can clip on and off, as can various types of mini-LED light bar.
