#Ford Bronco Raptor

We've all known a Ford Bronco Raptor was coming, but nobody in the public Broncosphere has known for sure how Ford Performance planned to endow the Bronco with F-150 Raptor-worthy performance—would it do so using an EcoBoost V-6 (and if so, which one?) or a Coyote V-8? Well, now we know: The Ford Performance gang has worked its magic on the 3.0-liter EcoBoost twin-turbo V-6 from the Explorer ST, modifying it extensively to suit the Bronco Raptor's mission, which is to "reward the revs." (For more on the V-6/V-8 decision, head here.)

The Ford Bronco Raptor is finally here because Ford figures that combining the horsey and dinosaur nameplates is tantamount to printing money; Ford’s probably right. As you’d expect, the Bronco Raptor is loud, brash and stupidly wide. So wide you’ll want a spotter to help you reverse, in case your dune runs dust over the rear camera lens. But the Bronco Raptor is not as much of a showoff as its fenders would suggest, and I’m grateful that Ford did not stick two or more big, dumb tailpipes on this thing, like those of the F-150 Raptor.

The 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor carries a starting price of $69,995. Ford has yet to release option prices or details about trim levels, but we imagine a fully equipped model will be considerably more expensive. Ford says deliveries will begin this summer, and those with an existing Bronco order can...

New York (CNN Business) — Ford just unveiled the Bronco Raptor, a high-performance version of its off-road Jeep Wrangler competitor. Based on desert racing trucks, this version has more power, bigger tires and taller suspension than a standard Bronco's for bounding across sand dunes at "highway speeds," according to Ford.

It's finally here. After years of rumors and waiting, Ford has finally unveiled the Bronco Raptor. With over 400 hp from a twin-turbo V-6 and a totally revamped suspension system, it's the desert running SUV of our fantasies.

This 4x4 SUV boasts a shocking number of model-specific changes, all with the aim of improved off-roading, especially high-speed work. Ford officials say the company hasn't compromised the Bronco's innate rock-crawling abilities, though. The new model features a larger, 3.0-liter twin-turbo EcoBoost V6. Ford is targeting 400 horsepower, but doesn't...

DETROIT – Ford Motor is expanding its Bronco SUV lineup to include a new Raptor model that will go on sale later this year starting at about $70,000. The 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor adds to an already wide lineup of the popular SUVs as the automaker attempts to fulfill an order bank of tens of thousands of reservation holders for current models. Ford said a majority of the first new Raptor models will be offered to existing reservation holders, followed by orders opening in March and deliveries beginning in the summer.

Unless you’ve been avoiding the internet, you likely heard that Ford finally threw the covers off its hot new Bronco Raptor. The truck is wider, faster, taller and more aggressive than its standard counterpart. But, how does it stack up against its rivals?. To find out, we pored through...

Ford Performance, the successor to the SVT team that gifted the world the original Ford F-150 Raptor, has revealed extensive details about the new 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor. The latest trim level to join the already extensive Bronco lineup, the Bronco Raptor takes inspiration from the Ultra4 racing series and features several competition-level hardware bits and features. Ford will sell the Raptor in street-legal form as the new flagship of the Bronco brand.

The Ford Bronco is so hot that dealers can’t keep them on lots more than about seven days right now. That stat applies to all Broncos regardless of trim so it’s understandable that the public is stoked to get their hands on the upcoming Bronco Raptor. The problem is, it’s still months from being delivered. John Hennessey and his team have just solved that issue with a 411-horsepower Bronco Velociraptor that’s been fast-tracked for sale.

Good morning and welcome to our daily digest of automotive news from around the globe, starting with…. Volkswagen has settled with the state of Ohio after the carmaker’s argument that the Clean Air Act meant only the federal government could pursue emissions claims was rejected. The $3.5 million the company settled for is, however, a fraction of what the state had initially sought, which could have been as much as $350 million per day.

The Ford Bronco Raptor is slated to be introduced later this year, but it isn’t the only new Bronco on the horizon as the company has already confirmed plans for an Everglades variant. It continues its slow march to production as Ford’s Mike Levine has tweeted pictures of the...

The unveiling of the all-new 2022 Ford Bronco has us in a real off-roading type of mood. But with a $70,000 price tag, is it a better idea to use the same money to build something custom? If you ask the people who built this supercharged Toyota 4Runner project, the answer is absolutely a yes.
