How the New Ford Bronco Was Designed for Easy Customization and Endless Personalization

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

  • Confidence to customize: Exclusive Bronco® two- and four-door modular platform allows owners to easily create the 4x4 of their dreams, whether it’s a simple grille change and new fender flares or building out a full custom machine
  • Game-changing: Modifications are quick, easy and extensive – off-road customization is limited only by your imagination; create a wide-open rock crawler with tube doors and open fenders in an afternoon or reconfigure an all-weather camper for next weekend
  • Future-proof: Today’s innovative modular #design positions #bronco as the hub for a burgeoning aftermarket parts and customization industry to grow – and for customers to continuously reconfigure their #bronco well into the future

DEARBORN, Mich., March 2, 2021 – The two- and four-door #ford Bronco® SUV’s patented off-road modular #design offers a user-friendly platform that can be stripped to its base structure so that alternate doors, fenders and grille can be added in one afternoon. The following day, a whole new #bronco SUV can be reconfigured for another new adventure with a different body and roof setup.

“Whether your goal is to build the ultimate desert racer or rock crawling rig – or both with the same vehicle – the #bronco modular #design provides the ease and confidence to create a 4x4 that is as unique as each of our customers,” said #bronco #design chief Paul Wraith. “Because of that ease and flexibility, no two Broncos should ever be alike.”

Game-changing modular design

The #bronco two- and four-door SUVs were designed and engineered from a clean slate to make off-road customization easy, quick and attainable for all enthusiasts with a wide variety of interests and skill levels.

Basic modifications to prep a #bronco for a fun-filled open-air afternoon can be completed in a matter of minutes by hand. Available modular roof panels can be removed by one person using simple latches. Available modular rear quarter windows can be removed with minimal effort, simply by releasing a latch for each window, while two people can remove the rear hardtop assembly after removing a few fasteners. Easy-to-use quarter-turn fasteners make removing four fender flares possible in just a few minutes each.

Bronco logos stamped on the body and interior fasteners indicate removeable modular components such as frameless doors, fenders, bumpers, grille and grab handles. Unlike competitive SUVs, both front and rear fenders can be removed by simply taking out the bolts – and can be replaced just the same without welding or other complicated means.

Frameless EZ Air doors can be removed in minutes by anyone of any size by taking off two bolts and disconnecting an electrical connector. Each door takes between two and four minutes to remove depending on the skill level of the customer. Threaded #bronco logo mounting points from the factory enable the addition of accessories like LED pod lights to sideview mirrors and installation of roof racks to the top sport bar. Available modular front and rear bumpers also come with threaded taps to mount winches, safari bars and LED lights.

When design-intent body parts are removed for off-road use only – fenders, quarter panels, doors and roof – the #bronco two- and four-door models retain all required Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Thanks to the vehicle’s innovative door #design, cowl-mounted sideview mirrors remain in place when the doors are off or when optional doors are installed.

“I expect a lot of #bronco owners are going to have a lot of fun engaging with the DIY aspects of the modular #design because it gives them the opportunity to create the perfect 4x4 for their unique needs without requiring a lot of mechanical expertise or experience,” said Wraith.

Future-proof: #bronco customization now and into the future

A portal into a new approach to the off-road business, the #bronco two- and four-door modular platform will become a hub for a burgeoning aftermarket and customization industry based around the off-road enthusiast community.

Several custom Bronco concept vehicles demonstrate the flexibility of the platform and underscore the growing number of Ford-licensed accessories at events like Bronco Day and #bronco Super Celebration, while third-party aftermarket companies are vying to showcase their performance parts on ULTRA4 #bronco 4600 series vehicles.

Theresa Contreras, custom builder and co-founder of LGE-CTS Motorsports based in California, served on a panel of off-road experts who brought a performance aftermarket voice to #bronco product development to help steer its #design to optimize customization. Months ahead of launch, Contreras is already seeing custom #bronco parts in forums and at trade shows.

“The way #bronco is engineered with the modular platform will create a lot of new opportunities for performance parts manufacturers and custom shops – giving them something new to hang their hats on,” she said. “And from a #design perspective, the vintage #bronco #design combined with some incredible new technology will give custom builders a lot to work with to create some really extreme off-road machines.”

For the #bronco brand, midcycle product updates can be created – even rapid-prototyped and 3D-printed – without having to change the base structure, extending the life of the platform so #bronco owners can look forward to years of modifying their vehicles with the latest features.

“Because of modularity, you can hang onto your #bronco longer and keep it fresh and up to date with new body parts, accessories and new technologies – some that can be made in low volume and others downloaded,” said Wraith. “The possibilities for this platform stretch as far as your imagination.”

The all-new 2021 #bronco two- and four-door models arrive starting this summer. To learn more about #bronco and #bronco Sport, please visit Ford.com/Bronco.
