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

[jaruss01]

Got it. The Raptor is 15 / 18 / 16 (city / highway / combined). If this is 17 combined, you could estimate 16 city / 19 highway / 17 combined.

This is dead on with my estimate. Close to, but not hitting 20 on the highway, and maybe only 1 or 2 mpg better than the raptor in the city, with a combined around 17.

Hoping for 19 in my 2 door Badlands 2.7L. Lol

if you are heavy on the highway use (under 70 MPH), don't have a short commute, or a lot of stop and go traffic, it might be so.

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

What's with all the Frenchy, French stuff.

Canada is a metric country, so we use the metric gallon. 4 litres.

And that still doesn't work out to 20mpg..... As shown in my post... The imperial matches the window sticker.

yes, 16.9 MPG (US) combined. Just about exactly as predicted. Gives me hope my stock BL will eke out 18 mixed.

That seems likely. I drive "normal", mixed of highway and city and get just under 20MPG long term average in my F150 2.7 10sp. That is with 32" road biased tires, 3.55 gears and all the f150 mpg tricks employed. It does great on the highway 70MPH and under and can get 24 at 60MPH. 80MPH=19 on the highway. Bronco will likely do slightly worse, although now that we know we get the completely tepid, super light duty 10R60 trans, maybe it will get 30MPG?

I don’t buy this personally. No way Bronco gets that much worse mileage than a Jeep or the same as a raptor.

The part that was even better was there were at least 12 semi trucks pulling in to obviously drop off parts!!!!!!

Any of the trucks say WABASTO on the side of them?

OK 52 posts in, where did we officially land on the mpg? And this is for 2.7 SAS?

Underrated post, @shoelessjoe .

This is a common daily occurrence at every plant in the country. They usually don't store months worth of every part.

Come on. How many times as admin have you seen me post about the rated MPGs of the new ranger tremor. that is 19/19 with smaller tires, smaller engine, lighter weight.

Edit: and i'd guess more aerodynamic

 

[AcesandEights]

Will the 2.3L get better highway, but poorer city; vice-versa?

 

[Zeebo390]

17mpg combined in Bald Eagle Units

I don't know if Canada uses the same testing as the EPA mandates though...

Canada uses the exact same EPA test cycles (MFGs just use their US numbers for Canada) so aside from the unit conversions it will be the same.

To be fair, isn't the 4 door Badlands Sasquatch with a 2.7L the heaviest of all Broncos? It's only uphill from there (no pun intended).

Ha! Joke's on you. Those were all IMPORTANT delivery trucks!
