Built for a thrilling off-road adventure, says, Ford. G.O.A.T means Goes Over Any Terrain and was the original code name for the Bronco project back in ’66 and now decribes the various drive modes in the SUV.
“Similar to the first-generation model, Bronco’s square proportions, short overhangs, and wide stance are optimized for off-road adventure,” said Paul Wraith, the new Bronco chief designer. “The side profile features a flat, no-nonsense surface with clear-cut edges and robustly flared fenders. Large, open wheel wells are a modular design with a quick-release attachment for simple customization.
Roof panels are removable on the 2-door and 4-door models.
