While there is a lot of excitement, and rightfully so, for the reemergence of the Ford Bronco, we thought it was time to see how it stacks up against other legendary adventurous SUVs.

In this showdown, our Marshall Ford team is ready to settle the debate between the 2021 Ford Bronco vs. Jeep Wrangler and help you decide which you'd prefer to drive around Marshall, Jefferson, and Waskom, TX.

The Capabilities of the 2021 Bronco vs 2021 Wrangler

It isn't a secret that the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler are two of the most rugged and adventurous SUVs on the market. From the thrill of open-air driving to their capability to go off-roading anywhere you'd like, they are ready for any excursion.

Although, a closer look at the specs shows some differences worth noting, especially if you will be doing some off-roading in your new SUV:

 

Ford Bronco

Jeep Wrangler

Maximum Ground Clearance

11.6 inches

10.8 inches

Maximum Departure Angle

37.2 degrees

37.0 degrees

Maximum Breakover Angle

29.0 degrees

27.8 degrees

With that higher ground clearance, the Bronco can cross deeper waters, and its departure angle shows it is ready to safely handle steeper hills. Plus, it offers some exclusive features, like the available 7-speed manual transmission, Trail Turn Assist, and Trail 1-Pedal Drive to give you even better control and handling along uneven terrain.


Your Everyday Commuting

How about when you are just driving locally around town, though? Which SUV is ready to provide a more comfortable and practical driving experience? To find out, let's first see what space they each have.

Opting for the 4-door configuration of either SUV provides room for five passengers. You and your partner or friend who rides along with you up front will enjoy more space in the 2021 Bronco:

Front Headroom

42.6 inches

Front Legroom

43.1 inches

41.2 inches

Front Shoulder Room

57.1 inches

55.7 inches

Plus, the 2021 Ford Bronco comes with the SYNC® 4 infotainment system, which lets you access your smartphone's applications on the 8-inch touchscreen by wirelessly connecting it via Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto™. The system will also automatically update itself to offer the best user experience possible.

As you drive, its available enhanced voice recognition lets you easily find directions to a nearby gas station or restaurant. The Jeep Wrangler has a more basic infotainment system, which doesn't offer wireless smartphone connectivity, has a smaller 5-inch display, and doesn't feature automatic software updates.


Bronco vs Wrangler: Which is More Versatile?

While many models are labeled as an SUV, the Bronco and Wrangler both stand out with an embodiment of the utility part of a sport utility vehicle. Each model gives you a good deal of room in the back for cargo and the ability to quickly fold down the seats to utilize even more room for larger items.

Overall, the Ford Bronco has more room, though, for cargo with up to 38.3 cubic feet of cargo volume behind both rows of seating and a maximum of 83 cubic feet behind the first row. The 2021 Wrangler offers 31.7 cubic feet of cargo volume with the seats upright and a maximum of 72.4 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. 


The Choice Between the 2021 Ford Bronco vs Jeep Wrangler

While both SUVs have a lot to offer, you may find the added space, performance capabilities, and high-tech features of the 2021 Ford Bronco make it a better pick for your travels around Marshall, Jefferson, and Waskom, Texas.
