How much Ranger in the Bronco?

[lowmpg]

Is it too early to know how much of the Bronco's suspension is taken from the Ranger?

Since Bronco is being built and released first, I think you have that backwards.

If you mean the 10 year old international Ranger, I would guess not very much.

The Bronco is built on the same frame as the Ranger, built in the same plant.

Rear suspension is completely different from the Ranger.

Um, what? Better tell Ford since they've been building the Ranger hahaha.

I believe this is a new ranger platform and the “new” ranger is not yet in the US. So probably means in the US the bronco will be the first vehicle using this platform.

Bronco shares architecture with the NEXT Ranger, not the current one.

You’ve got some catching up to do.

The Bronco is using the same frame as the current Ranger that was introduced in 2019.

No, the frame the Bronco is using is an updated version of that platform. The next Ranger will be using that updated frame.

Thank you and thanks to the others who had replies, appreciated.

Here's where I get confused -- so when the new Ranger releases in 202?, will there be a Bronco Pickup? Is the choice between cool-looking Bronco front clip vs current Ranger/future Ranger that looks like a reduced F-150? Basically the same (but maybe not performance) "guts" but one is for the cool kids and the other is for work?

2023-2024 ish (don't recall exactly).

Bronco pickup is reportedly supposed to be Sport-track like (better proportioned and a shorter bed than Gladiator.
