Ford Unleashes the Bronco Raptor

We knew it was in the works and now it's been unveiled to the general public. Ford has unleashed the unbridles Raptor version of the Bronco SUV and shared most everything fans have been clamouring to to know about it.

This new variant see Ford's ultimate off-road model, the Bronco, teamed with the company's high-performance off-road Raptor package. The result, as you might expect, is designed to turn heads and get people talking. As Ford mentions in its press release, with this model it brings to life a vehicle “designed for desert racing and rock climbing”.
