Ford did say that it would launch four SUVs in the next four years. On the confirmation that one of those SUVs is the Bronco, then it opens the possibility that the company could launch either a 2017 Ford Bronco or a 2018 Ford Bronco or a 2019 Ford Bronco or a 2020 Ford Bronco.
While most of the bet is that the 2020 Ford Bronco is most likely to happen compared to the other three, the 2017 Ford Bronco is still very much a possibility to say the least, which is why even though it is just a rumor at this point, it has better leg to stand on compared to the hoax that was the 2016 Ford Bronco.
Reports have it the 2017 Ford Bronco shall sport the most modern technologies available on most modern SUVs. It will have a touch-screen dashboard with SAT-NAV and infotainment system that is reportedly one of the state-of-the-art features that the upcoming SUV will come with.
The SUV shall reportedly be based on the Ford Atlas Concept on which the Ford F-150 Raptor was based. It shall be made of lightweight materials such as high-strength steel and aluminum which would be very durable and dependable.
