2021 Ford Bronco Sport Badlands Comprehensive In Car Review: Real Sport. Real Utility!

Ford's Bronco Sport is the real deal. Not a Ford Escape with a bit of cladding and a wheel package, but a genuinely rugged and capable machine to get a bit adventurous in. Choose the Badlands model and you get a modified suspension, a locking rear-diff, and an oil cooler for the eight-speed transmission. It looks cool too.
