What parts of the Bronco Sport are made of aluminum?

[Benny]

Sorry if this has been covered already: Does anyone know what parts of the Bronco Sport are made of aluminum? Exterior, components etc? I'm seeing online that there is mention of the Bronco having substantial aluminum components (hood etc) but I can't find anything about the Bronco Sport.

Thanks!

No results except for my own thread question and wheels. It doesn't appear the topic has been discussed yet.

Maybe someone can go put a magnet on body panels to determine if they are aluminum? Don't look at me mine down in some storage area in Mexico with missing chips.

There's a mechanic review of the bronco sport on you tube. Aluminum parts that stand out to me from what I remembered were the rear trailing/control arms.

I can confirm from my badlands. Hood, front fascia, gas door are not sheet metal. Magnet adhered to all four doors, fenders, rear gate, and roof. I used a soft magnet on a clean paint job, no flecks of paint were injured in the experiment.
