The all-new 20121 Ford Bronco Sport off-road vehicle signals a welcome return to roads and trails less traveled.

Five trim levels are available, including the base model, Big Bend, Outer Banks, Badlands and First Edition.

Badlands and First Edition models pack an advanced 4x4 system with a class-exclusive twin-clutch rear-drive unit with a differential lock feature to allow greater off-road performance -- similar to a traditional mechanical locking differential.

The Badlands and First Edition series are powered by a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine that produces a targeted best-in-class 245 horsepower and 275 lb.-ft. of torque for high-speed off-road performance. Base, Big Bend and Outer Banks series feature the proven 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine with a targeted 181 horsepower and 190 lb.-ft. of torque.

Both engines are paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, while Bronco Sport Badlands and First Edition add SelectShift with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters to help drivers maximize control both on- and off-road.

Its upright design and safari-style roof contribute to Bronco Sport's adventurous silhouette. The cargo area has enough height to accommodate two standing 27.5-inch-wheel mountain bikes.

A flip-glass rear window, low-load floor cargo area, overlanding-ready roof rack with capacity to make roof-top tent camping easy, and front fender peaks that allow the driver to see the corners of the vehicle easily from behind the wheel reveal this small SUV is purpose-built for adventure from front to back, top to bottom.

Bronco Sport can quickly help with basecamp setup thanks to an innovative slide-out working table, plus a class-exclusive 400-watt inverter and liftgate floodlamps that illuminate up to 129 square feet.
