Ford has unveiled a new addition to its Bronco family, exclusively for the Chinese market. Dubbed the Bronco New Energy, the SUV comes in two electrified versions: a fully electric model powered by a 105-kWh battery and a plug-in hybrid version featuring a 44-kWh battery paired with a gasoline engine in a range-extender configuration.
The EV variant boasts a claimed range of 403 miles on the WLTP cycle, while the PHEV offers a notable 136 miles of electric-only driving and up to 800 miles total with a full tank and charge. Though technical specs remain limited, the model is expected to offer all-wheel drive and further off-road equipment.
Slated to go on sale in China later this year. While Ford has yet to electrify its U.S. Bronco lineup, this new release could be a preview of future hybrid or EV models heading stateside.
