Bronco vs Wrangler: Off-Roading Capabilities

It is no secret that the Jeep Wrangler and new Ford Bronco are two of the most equipped vehicles when it comes to off-roading performance. However, we think there are some aspects of the 2021 Ford Bronco that the truly adventurous drivers will appreciate having.

Maneuverability will be better when off-roading in the Bronco, especially along steep inclines and down big drops, thanks to its available departure, breakover, and approach angles. With available Trail Turn Assist too, you can make tighter turns along narrow trails in the 2021 Bronco thanks to the system's ability to give you a reduced turning radius.

Plus, when you come across a deep stream crossing, you can trek your way through water up to 33.5 inches deep in the Ford Bronco. The Jeep Wrangler can cross water only up to 30 inches deep. A higher available ground clearance of 11.6 inches allows you to stay clear of larger obstacles with the 2021 Bronco as well. At its best, the 2021 Wrangler offers a maximum ground clearance of 10.8 inches.  

2021 Ford Bronco vs Jeep Wrangler: Interior Space

Both models come with similar cabin designs, with both offering either a two-door or four-door configuration. They also offer spacious seating for five, so friends and family can always join along for the adventure!

You'll be able to pack up more gear and supplies in the 2021 Bronco, though. That is because there is up to 38.3 cubic feet of cargo volume behind both rows, which can be expanded to 83 cubic feet when you fold down the rear seats.

The 2021 Jeep Wrangler provides up to 31.7 cubic feet of cargo volume behind its second-row seats. While you can also fold down the rear seats in the back of the Wrangler to create more cargo space, this only will give you maximum of 72.4 cubic feet of cargo volume.

Comparing the Tech Features of the Bronco vs Wrangler

Each vehicle also offers a range of technology systems, from safety features to options that help keep you and your passengers entertained. A more advanced standard cabin though is found in the 2021 Ford Bronco.

It comes with both an 8-inch productivity screen to keep you informed as well as the 8-inch touchscreen that features SYNC® 4. Through this system, you can wirelessly connect your smartphone through Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto™.

That way, you can easily select one of your playlists to listen to using the touchscreen or simply respond to a text message through voice recognition. The 2021 Jeep Wrangler comes standard with a more basic infotainment system that has just a 5-inch, non-touchscreen display and doesn't offer the same level of integration to your smartphone.
