By Nicole Rodrigues, 01 Aug 2023
Ford has taken a nostalgic trip back to the 1970s with the introduction of the 2024 Bronco Sport Free Wheeling special edition. Following a 25-year break, the new vehicle takes inspiration from the iconic Ford Free Wheeling trucks and Broncos of yesteryears.
The Free Wheeling special edition boasts sunset-inspired graphics adorning the body sides, liftgate, and hood, showcasing a palette of red, orange, yellow, and silver stripes. These striking colors pay homage to the original design, capturing the essence of vintage appeal.
The exterior of the Free Wheeling edition further stands out with a silver-painted grille featuring two-tone Bronco badging, a modified lower front end insert, a Shadow Black roof, and 17-inch high-gloss black wheels accentuated with red highlights. Each element adds a touch of sophistication and uniqueness to this special edition.
Ford continues the theme inside the cabin with a Black Onyx and Dark Space Grey finish complemented by sunset-colored seat inserts and ombre stitching. The interior ambiance exudes a sense of style and luxury, ensuring a pleasurable driving experience for occupants.
It’s worth noting that the Free Wheeling special edition retains all the standard equipment and drivetrain options of the popular Bronco Sport Big Bend model.
Ford also introduces the Black Appearance Package for the Bronco Sport Big Bend models, offering an alternative aesthetic choice for those seeking a more daring and sleek appearance. The package includes a Carbon Black grille, two-tone Bronco lettering, Matte Black 17-inch wheels, Matte Black hood graphics, and a Shadow Black painted roof. The interior features Sport Contour seats and a modified airbag cover with a black bucking Bronco badge, adding to the overall allure of this package.
In addition to the special editions, Ford is expanding the color palette for the 2024 Bronco Sport, with Azure Gray and Desert Sand joining the options. These colors will be exclusive to specific models, offering even more variety for customers seeking a personalized touch.
The 2024 Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling Special Edition is now available for a base price of US$33,730.
