First Fuel Economy Numbers Seen on Window Sticker = 16.9 MPG (converted) for Sasquatch Badlands 4-Door Bronco 2.7L

Can’t say I’m surprised, this thing is is literally a rolling brick pushing 3 tons on 35” M/T tires with short gearing, a boosted V6, and the active grille shutters deleted. It is physically impossible to even approach 20 mpg in mixed driving with that combo, and in the real world I would expect any non-highway suburban driving to max out at 15.

But as mentioned in other posts a 2.7 4D BL SAS should be the absolute floor. The other side of the spectrum would be a base 2.3 2D auto with the tallest gearing on Prius wheel/tires with AGS...that might eke out 20+ combined.

Yeah knowing all this I'd be happy with 17MPG mixed driving. If MPG is of concern the 2.7 four door with Sasquatch isn't the Bronco that someone should be looking to buy.

Everyone: Please cancel your orders now.

20mpg combined? Not sure how their fuel ratings work because I’m coming up with 16.9 mpg (converted from 13.9L/100km)

In Canada the Imperial gallon is used, that's why it says 20 mpg.

Looks like 16.9 mph checks out:
