Sporty compact SUV
A smaller version of the regular Ford Bronco, the Bronco Sport is a potent compact SUV that shares many of the strongest suits of its bigger brother. The 2024 Bronco Sport is a capable off-roader with decent towing power, while the main difference is that it’s more practical and suitable for daily driving in urban settings due to its smaller size. Given its compact shape and toned-down size, it boasts greater maneuverability and it’s much easier to maneuver on crowded city streets. It brings together the ruggedness and abilities of a true off-road SUV and the versatility of a compact SUV that you can use as a daily commuter vehicle.

5 reasons to buy the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport
1. Rugged and capable
Above all, the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport is a great vehicle for outdoor adventures. It performs well on different terrain and can overcome various obstacles it may run into while driving off-road. This is, in part, thanks to its standard all-wheel-drive setup with a twin-clutch rear drive for increased traction. Another notable standard feature is Ford’s Terrain Management System, which includes different driving modes to tailor the feel of the vehicle. The five available settings include Sand, Slippery, Sport, Eco, and Normal. The standard ground clearance of 7.8 inches helps to further enhance the Bronco Sport’s off-road performance.
2. Powerful engine lineup
Another feature of the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport is its strong powertrain. The base engine is a 181-hp turbocharged 1.5L three-cylinder, but for even more power you can opt for the available 2.0L four-cylinder that generates 245 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque. Both are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. These powertrain options make the Bronco Sport fast and agile for an SUV of its size. When powered by the standard 1.5L three-cylinder engine, it goes from zero to 60 mph in 8.6 seconds, a respectable figure for a predominantly off-road-oriented SUV.
3. Towing abilities
While some rivals boast a higher towing capacity, the 2024 Bronco Sport’s ability is still quite respectable. With the more powerful, 2.0L four-cylinder engine, it can tow an estimated 2,000 lbs when properly equipped.
4. Lots of standard features
The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport comes with an impressive number of standard features. Starting with infotainment, there is an eight-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration, along with voice recognition, satellite radio, and a six-speaker stereo. Then there are additional features, such as roof rails, a rear liftgate, automatic climate control, and a rear fold-down center armrest with two cup holders. All this standard equipment helps to provide a more pleasant ride experience for all passengers.
5. Abundant cargo space
The utilitarian nature of the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport is reflected in its high cargo capacity. It offers ample room for storage thanks to a large trunk, and the boxy shape helps make packing easy. There is 32.5 cu-ft of space in the back, which increases to 65.2 cu-ft when you fold the seats. This space should be more than enough to carry all the necessities for your off-road adventures and family vacations.
