Ford Bronco vs. Jeep Wrangler: How do They Compare?

Off-roading enthusiasts all over Fort Mill, SC, have plenty of exciting vehicles to pick from. Arguably the top two contenders are the Ford Bronco and Jeep Wrangler. Both of these SUVs are optimized to handle the toughest trails. But does one have the edge? At Keith Hawthorne Ford of Belmont, we think it’s the Bronco. But don’t just take our word for it; here is how the Bronco compares to the Jeep Wrangler.

Performance

The Bronco has two engine options: a 2.3-liter EcoBoost® I-4 engine (up to 300 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque when paired with premium fuel), and a 2.7-liter EcoBoost® V-6 engine (up to 330 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque with premium fuel). The Jeep Wrangler has three engine options: a 2.0-liter I-4 engine (270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque), a 3.0-EcoDiesel V-6 engine (260 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque), a 3.6-liter Pentastar® V-6 engine (285 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque). All of the Jeep Wrangler engine options fall short of both Bronco engine options in terms of horsepower, and only the Wrangler diesel engine can compete in terms of torque.

Spaciousness

If you need to pack a lot of gear on your next adventure, you will love the space afforded by the Bronco. The standard two-door Bronco has a maximum cargo volume of 52.3 cubic feet. For comparison, the standard two-door Jeep Wrangler has just 31.7 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume. If you need as much room for off-roading equipment as possible, the Bronco is the clear choice.
