Ford Bronco 3D at a glance
Quick model context before comparing photos and trim-level specifications.
As a true body-on-frame SUV, the sixth-generation Ford Bronco 3D is aimed directly at off-road enthusiasts who value mechanical capability and heritage design. The short-wheelbase, three-door layout with a 2550 mm wheelbase prioritizes maneuverability on the trail over maximum interior volume. Ford engineered this generation to reference the original 1966 model while introducing modern engineering, including independent front suspension and advanced four-wheel-drive transfer cases. Available with either a traditional part-time 4WD system with a 2.72:1 low range or an advanced automatic 4WD setup with a 3.06:1 ratio, the Bronco provides options for both casual adventurers and serious trail drivers. The inclusion of specialized equipment packages and comprehensive underbody steel protection ensures it remains highly competitive in the dedicated off-roader segment.

Ford Bronco 3D overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The exterior of the Bronco 3D relies heavily on functional, boxy proportions that recall early generations. Key styling elements include round headlights set within a rectangular grille, short overhangs, and flat body panels. A major functional design feature is the modular body system: the roof panels, rear sections, and doors can all be completely removed for open-air driving, paying homage to the classic Bronco Roadster. The stance can be further enhanced with factory 35-inch mud-terrain tires, which significantly improve ground clearance up to 295 mm and water fording capabilities.
Interior
Inside, the Bronco 3D is strictly a four-seater with a cabin designed for durability and outdoor use. Depending on the specification, the interior can feature marine-grade vinyl upholstery that resists mildew, paired with rubberized flooring and active drain plugs, allowing the cabin to be washed out with water. The dashboard incorporates a mounting rail with 12-volt power outlets for securing devices like phones and action cameras. Essential off-road switches are rubberized and positioned on the center console. Technology is handled by the Ford SYNC 4 system, operating through either an 8-inch or 12-inch touchscreen.
Performance
Power comes from a choice of two turbocharged gasoline engines. The standard unit is a 2.3-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost producing 274 horsepower and 420 Nm of torque. This engine can be paired with either a 10-speed automatic or a 7-speed Getrag manual transmission, which includes a dedicated low-speed crawler gear. For more power, a 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 is available, delivering 314 horsepower and 542 Nm of torque, matched exclusively to the 10-speed automatic. The chassis utilizes a double-wishbone front setup with a Dana differential, while the rear uses a solid Dana 44 axle with a five-link design.
Practicality
While highly capable off-road, the three-door Bronco makes compromises in everyday practicality compared to its larger five-door sibling. Seating is limited to four passengers, and the shorter wheelbase naturally reduces rear legroom. The trunk provides a capacity of 668 liters. However, its compact dimensions, measuring 4412 mm in length, make it easy to maneuver in both tight city environments and narrow forest trails. The washable interior materials add a layer of everyday convenience for owners who frequently deal with mud, sand, or snow.
Safety and tech
The Bronco is equipped with a suite of modern driving aids and safety technologies. Off-road specific tech includes the Trail Toolbox, featuring low-speed trail cruise control, a 1-pedal driving mode, and a system that brakes the inside rear wheel to tighten the turning radius. Standard and available on-road safety features include adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot monitoring. Drivers can also utilize a 360-degree camera system, which is particularly useful for spotting obstacles on tight trails. Convenience options include a wireless smartphone charging pad and a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen audio system.
Buyer notes
When shopping for a 2020 Bronco 3D, buyers should pay close attention to the drivetrain and suspension packages. The choice between the 2.3L four-cylinder and the 2.7L V6 largely depends on whether you prefer the engagement of a manual transmission, which is only available on the smaller engine. For serious off-roading, looking for models equipped with the Sasquatch package or front and rear locking differentials is highly recommended. Note that trim availability, specific off-road hardware, and interior features like the washable floors may vary depending on the chosen configuration.
