Here Are 5 Positives About the 2022 Bronco Raptor

The 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor comes with greater capability and performance than the base Bronco. As part of the Ford Raptor family, the Bronco Raptor arrives with a powerful turbocharged engine and enhanced driver-assist features. These upgrades provide the 4×4 SUV with increased performance so owners can take on the toughest terrain. Along with increased performance, Ford has also added new equipment to the 2022 Bronco Raptor, like a digital display and a sport wheel kit. With so much versatility and capability, we thought we’d take a look at 5 reasons why consumers should consider the 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor.

1) Twin-Turbo V6 Engine 

The first reason consumers should consider the 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor is its engine. In joining the Raptor family, the Bronco was given several upgrades too. One of these was a powerful engine. Equipped with a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 engine, the 2022 Bronco Raptor is capable of 418 horsepower and 440lb-ft of torque. This engine is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission as well as 4-wheel drive. All together, owners of the 4×4 SUV will enjoy impressive performance both on trails and on the highway. Also, as is expected from the Raptor family, the Bronco Raptor has a 0-60 mph time of 5.6 seconds. 

2) Impressive Off-Road Performance

A second reason to consider the Bronco Raptor is its off-road performance. Ford has upgraded the SUV with a beefier suspension, as well as a larger track width. The Bronco Raptor also features stronger half shafts and stronger constant velocity joints. These upgrades combined with the Bronco’s unique G.O.A.T mode (‘Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) allow the SUV to outperform when off-road. This G.O.A.T mode offers several distinct driving modes like mud, Baja, sport, rock crawl, and more. Designed for specific terrain and functions, these modes help drivers by improving the Bronco’s steering, handling, and powertrain performance. The Bronco Raptor also has Fox adaptive dampers and 37-inch all-terrain tires to help navigate tough terrain. 

3) Aggressive Appearance 

Another reason to consider the 2022 Bronco Raptor is its rugged appearance. While the 2022 Bronco Raptor starts at a higher MSRP ($68,500 plus destination fee) than the base Bronco, it’s well worth it. This is due to the vast amount of upgrades in performance and capability. Another change is in the appearance of the Bronco Raptor. The high-performance SUV is offered with a 4-door configuration and comes with LED headlights with LED DRLS. It also has a massive Ford logo on the grille and dual tow hooks. The Bronco Raptor is also bigger and wider than the base trim. Additionally, consumers can choose from a variety of customization and personalization options like a shadow black-painted hardtop roof.

4) Ford CoPilot 360

An important factor when choosing a vehicle is safety. With the 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor, owners will be able to make use of the Ford CoPilot 360 suite. This safety suite offers features like automatic emergency braking, lane departure warnings, forward-collision alerts, and more. This safety suite also includes driver-assist features like a blind-spot monitoring system and adaptive cruise control. The Bronco also has a 5-star safety rating, so owners can rest assured that they will remain safe and secure.

5) Towing Capacity 

Last but not least, the 2022 Bronco Raptor offers impressive towing capacity. While this is part of its performance and capability, compared to many other 4×4 SUVs, the Bronco offers greater towing capacity.  The Bronco Raptor comes with 4,500 pounds of towing capacity as well as 1,155 pounds of payload capacity. This makes the 4×4 SUV extremely versatile in that it not only outperforms on trails and rough terrain but also serves those who need a vehicle capable of towing and hauling.
