The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
7.2
7.0
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2021 Ford Bronco Sport carves out a new all-terrain niche for one of the most beloved off-road names in auto history. The 2021 Ford Bronco is a throwback SUV in all the best ways. The 2021 Ford Escape is the softer side of the Blue Oval’s small crossover 1-2 combo.
