Ford Bronco Heritage Spied Uncovered

 

We've got our first look at the Ford Bronco Heritage model, and it's not what you think.

The new 4-door is a little bit different than your average Bronco. In fact, it looks exactly like a typical Bronco four-door with a few unique features.

At first glance, you will notice the red Ford branding in the grille, and that’s the primary clue that this is a Heritage model.

The rest of the exterior is pretty standard for an off-road SUV, but with some notable exceptions.

We hope that the coming days will reveal more of this new version of the beloved Bronco.
