Based on the front-wheel drive Ford Escape, the Ford Bronco Sport climbs a middle ground between the sedate compact crossover and the larger Bronco all-terrain conqueror.
The Jeep Cherokee and the Jeep Compass can be optioned as overlanders to occupy a similar space as the Bronco Sport, and they can all take on the Wrangler for the urban and suburban crowd that may foray off-road on occasion.
Any Subaru crossover appeals to a similar set, but the Crosstrek better compares to the Bronco Sport than the wagon-like proportions of the Subaru Outback.
