Highest ranked small SUV huh? I can believe that based on the response here for sure. But then the article states it beat out the Mini Countryman & Nissan Kicks. That’s the small SUV class? Suddenly this seem like an easy win for the Sport.

Not quite the way it looks from this link I found, but still pretty much at the top. But yes, given the ‘small SUV’ competition it would be hard to find a better choice I’d think.

Yeah sorry it's in line with the jeep Compass and similar small SUV it's not a micro SUV but whatever

Here I always figured it’s competition is other compacts, RAV4, CRV, Forester, Escape, etc. I guess it is a bit shorter. So small enough, but large enough to be comfortable.

I love my Badlands. I don’t give a rat’s ass what it’s compared to.

Sport beats Rav4 by just a little on total passenger volume, is about tied with CRV, loses a little to Forester. Of course you take any of those against a Badlands off road and the Bronco will win hands down.

That's what I shopped the B.S. against (plus Mazda), but Ford's 'official' word has been to position the B.S. against the smaller SUVs mentioned in the article. I wonder how much that plays out amongst buyers "IRL" -- the Blazer and Renegade never crossed my mind.

No, to me it seems there’s a whole ‘subcompact’ class that exists below the Sport. Narrower than comparable compacts & shorter yet again. Trailblazer & Renegade as you mentioned, various Kias, the subject article mention of the Kicks. Not even necessarily 4WD/AWD. Tall hatchbacks. Nothing wrong with that, just a size too small for me, but nothing that I’d be comparing the Sport to either.

Of course FordAuthority is going to say its the best. It's FordAuthority where Ford is life lol. Now if this was on say like GMAuthority or MotorAuthority, I would be more inclined to believe the statement as it wouldn't have been so biased.

Either way, I'm pumped to get my BS someday. Still waiting for shipment for 3 weeks now just about lol.

I’m going out on a limb and guessing your BSBL will be at your dealer by the end on next week. Any other predictions, guys?

Same here.

There's so many things I love about it... but the most obvious is the fact it doesn't look all the other SUVs on the road while reminding me a lot of the Bronco II my dad drove me around in back in the mid 1980's.

Nothing about my 2021 BS reminds me or even remotely resembles the old jalopy called the Bronco II.
Not even the II, only the Bronco name is from the old ones.
I actually thought I was looking at a new model Range Rover when I saw my BS for the first time.
I did a crap ton of looking and found a Range Rover model that FORD obviously copied. There are a dozen details on the body of my BS that scream Range Rover.
But man did Ford execute with perfection the overall package.
I like many looked at a crap ton of the current SUV herd that’s available from ALL the other manufacturers and not a single one had anything I wanted in the style, size, and category that these Bronco Sports clearly dominate.
My only concern is the extreme complexity of the vehicle.
At around 80-90,000 miles I’ll trade my BS in for a AWD Maverick.
I’m hoping in four years I can get a Hybrid AWD Mav and get a 40 mpg avg.
FORD if you keep this up your going to dominate the entire Auto Industry.
And I’ll do my best to support you.
And Ford Corporate you need to listen to me.
Bring down the complexity of your vehicles, bring it way way down.
Auto stop start, head lamp fans,
Really ? Give me a break.
I do dig the louvers in front of my radiator:’P

Interesting that if you scroll down in the jdpower linked article, there is a link for compact SUVs. In that list Is the Ford Escape. Explain that.

The list with the Bronco Sport calls them ‘small’ SUV’s. The link with the Escape calls them ‘compact’ SUV’s. I’m not sure what the difference is.

The difference is somewhere between small and compact!

There's one in every crowd...

To answer the question, there is no answer. Like the debate about AWD vs 4WD, "small" or "compact" means whatever the manufacturer selling it wants it to mean.
