7th Gen 2030 Bronco Coming End of 2029, Together With Electric Bronco EV (TE1 Platform)

[JBlanco]

So it's coming 2031, got it.

You better order it now! (well, not now, the order banks are still closed, but you know what I mean...)

No hybrid? What a waste, an electric car is fine for city use but no thanks for living out here nor going any great distance.

This...

My 2014 Volt takes 4 hours to add 30-40 miles of range to the battery at maximum allowed voltage of 220v(it also has a gasoline engine), the 2022 Hyundai Ionic 5 takes 18 minutes to add over 200 miles to the battery.

This is literally how much EV battery technology has improved in 8 years...

Buwahahaha. That’s not how it works. This is not a linear thing. Batteries are about at where they can go. You would need to add more of them to increase range and thus increase charge times. (You can only push so many electrons so fast until the medium you are pushing them is destroyed).

Wy wife’s old volt was fine for charging off of 110. She needed 240 for her current Clarity. And the amount of range she gets in the cold from the batteries is a joke.

There would literally need to be a magic battery created to handle any meaning full distance and charge time. Especially in the real world and real world weather conditions.

Electric cars are fine for short distance and city use but forget about it for any distance or travel/road trip practicality. I’m not saying there is only gas then and only gas now and only gas forever! No, but electric cars will fill a niche for urbanites and something like fuel cell cars will replace gas for others. IMHO. But you still need a magic battery for anything other than the use I outlined above.

hoping to get Hydrogen Cars by 2029 ....

Next gen Bronco info:

• 7th gen Bronco will remain on the T6 platform and continue being built at Michigan Assembly Plant
• Electric Bronco BEV will be built on TE1 platform (shared with Ranger BEV) and built at Blue Oval City in Tennessee

What does "BEV" and "T6 Platform" mean?

 

[Simmy]

What does "BEV" and "T6 Platform" mean?

BEV = Battery Electric Vehicle
T6 = the platform for 7th gen Bronco (non EV model)

 

[shieldsy]

BEV = Battery Electric Vehicle
T6 = the new electric vehicle platform that the Bronco EV and Ranger EV will be built on

Not according to the OP. Bronco EV to be built on the lightning TE1 platform. Which is interesting because I thought the whole point of the T6 was that it was future proofed for EV.

Oops, misread that. Fixed my post:

[mikec426]

Cool. I figured the B was for Battery. And I just wondered if the T6 had some sort of significance that would hint at things to expect in the next gen Bronco.

 

[Tricky Dick]

I would be thrilled with this timeline, parts and accessories for 6G will be plentiful with a run like that.

 

[HotdogThud]

Assuming Ford continues to delay my build, I may get one by then!

Just hold on for your 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 2026 2027 2028 Badlands Raptor Everglades Oates Craftsman EV edition Price Protection!

*edit*

STAY PUMPED!

Guess with a release of 2029, you could expect to take delivery sometime around…. I don’t know, maybe 2035 based on the fact that Ford can’t even efficiently deliver the 6G Bronco.

 

[DaBronCo33]

No thanks

By then, I'll make the mistake of spelling bronco in small caps and the price protection will be denied!

yeah but imagine how many "special editions" they'll pump out!
