Bronco Sport Raptor??

[sinbuster007]

so i hear all this talk about Ford doing "raptor" on just about everything now....
Bronco, Ranger, and now Mustang(?) .....
so do you think they will "Raptor"-ize the bronco sport? what would it look like?
engine? etc..... is this even a possibility? would be an interesting vehicle i think....

thoughts?

It would sale of course but many, me included, would question why you would need one over a comparatively priced Bronco.

I think that there would be a Maverick Raptor before a BS Raptor. But I think that is unlikely.
Raptors are aggressive birds of prey, at the top of the food chain.
Being unibody vehicles, neither one fits the image, IMO.

I've thought about this too, but I don't think there's room for it anymore. The only way I could see it happening is if ford just wants to expand the Raptor line up. I'd be more willing to bet on a Bronco Sport ST version with more power and on 19s or something. But that's just me.

I’ll be the negative Nancy here and say it’s never going to happen. Same with the Maverick. It doesn’t fit in with with these cars places in the market and a raptor version would cost considerably more placing this car into a different price segment altogether and car would not be competitive value wise there

Raptor should be reserved for body on frame vehicle. So I think they’ve got it covered.

But, I wouldn’t put it past them. could you image. A $50K+ Bronco Sport?

 

[sinbuster007]

im not saying i would want it, just day dreaming what one would look like, drive like, etc...
would be very $$$, as with the "shelby" lineup of mustangs....

seems they are in the market now to do "one-offs" on every model and see what happens...
im sure as some suggested Maverick might have one before BS does...

i have an Edge ST, i like it. power, handling...roomy. nice vehicle.

Can the 2.3L fit in our engine bays?

Yes , in2020 I ordered a First Edition bronco sport that I was well aware that I would be giving about 44,000 out the door, if you look at 2.5 years now that would make your estimate of 50.000 correct.

If a Sport Raptor was under $60k, I’d order day 1 available. But it would be north of $70k if I had to guess. I mean the Mustang Raptor is supposedly $110k according to some articles.

Can a LS or coyote v8 fit? That's what I want to know ?

What would it look like?

About $15,000.00 (at least) added to the current price of the model price. I don't see a 1.5L or 2.0L doing the Raptor name justice.

If there's a way to squeeze another dime out of consumers, they will do it.

Not if it there is a fair chance of sullying their reputation. A superficial Raptor just wouldn't be a good idea, and would be nicknamed the Craptor.
