2022 Ford Bronco Raptor Debuts as the Most Powerful Bronco Yet

Built for desert running and boulder crawling, the all-new 2022 Ford Bronco Raptor gives off-roaders next-level performance.

The Bronco Raptor, the newest member of the Bronco outdoor brand Built Wild SUVs, debuts today as the most powerful street-legal Bronco ever. It is also the world’s first Ultra4 Racing inspired SUV. Ford Performance, the same team that produces the F-150 Raptor, designed and engineered Bronco Raptor as a calling to hardcore off-road enthusiasts.

Bronco Raptor is equipped with elite off-road technology and hardware. Ultra4 Racing is the epitome of grueling off-road competition, featuring demanding races such as the famed King of the Hammers in the Johnson Valley in California, where the Bronco Raptor will be on display on Feb. 3. Ford and Bronco will continue as the official truck and SUV of the Ultra4 series.

Bronco Raptor packs extreme Built Wild™ capability and durability with an exclusive twin-turbo 3.0-liter EcoBoost® engine targeted to deliver more than 400 horsepower*, a Raptor HOSS 4.0 race-ready suspension system, a fully boxed, high-strength steel frame, and standard 37-inch all-terrain tires

Styling and Design

The first-ever Bronco Raptor delivers purpose-built design by infusing Raptor-family signature cues with the trucks Built Wild innovative design.

Familiar Ford block lettering stretches across the signature two-piece rectangular grille. Model specific LED headlights feature amber daytime running lamps and integrated amber marker lamps tie in the DNA of the Raptor to provide a menacing look. A heavy-duty front bumper features tow hooks, removable bumper end caps for improved off-road clearance, and removable Rigid LED fog lamps and road lamps.

The hood is made of sheet-molding compound, offering the design team the ability to dramatically sculpt the muscular shape. An integrated hood vent is molded-in-color Carbon Black and fender vents are painted body color. Raptor logos on the left and right of the hood bulge hint at the twin-turbo power underneath.

Bronco Raptor proudly leverages the Bronco SUV’s patented off-road modular design, stripped it to its base, and replaced components with unique-to-Raptor front and rear quarter-panels, fenders, fender flares and door appliques.

Sheet-molding compound is once again used to sculpt the wider front fenders and integrated body side heat extraction ducts, which provide additional engine cooling. Sheet-molding compound rear-quarter panels are equally bolstered for a muscular look.

Together with fender flares, Bronco Raptor sits 9.8 inches wider than a standard Bronco. Bronco Raptor-specific reinforced rock rails with removable running boards increase rock crawling capability.

For even more Raptor-styling DNA, an available Bronco Raptor Graphics Package includes new splatter graphics on the rear body sides and hood that use an overlapping broken trapezoidal pattern and floating shapes to present a sophisticated digital appearance.

Exterior colors include Hot Pepper Red Metallic, Velocity Blue Metallic, Eruption Green Metallic, Shadow Black, Iconic Silver Metallic, Area 51, Cactus Gray, Cyber Orange Metallic Tri-Coat, Oxford White, plus Ford Performance-exclusive Code Orange paint.
