The new Ford Bronco is due to launch very soon — perhaps even with a manual transmission. So perhaps it’s not all that surprising that photos of what appears to be both the two-door and four-door production models have leaked onto the Internet.
The images were posted by the user who goes by the handle “BroncoKong” on the Bronco6g.com forum. The original posting now indicates that “pics and content have been removed by request of Ford,” which suggests these photos are the real deal.
In the original posting, BroncoKong asserted that these were the base models. The pics show a Bronco with a completely removable roof, and what may be a swing-out rear hatch, much like the Jeep Wrangler has. A backup camera protrudes from the spare tire holder. The Bronco also has rounded wheel arches and six-lug wheels with what certainly appears to be a Bronco emblem.
(That said, if this leak was not secretly sanctioned by the carmaker, BroncoKing did Ford a solid by not photographing the front of either vehicle.)
The Broncos pictured here are black, though Ford will offer an array of interestingly named color options. Not all of them are shades of gray, but sadly, none seem to be bright blue, either.
