2023 Bronco Raptor debut 01.24.22

It’s Official: The Ford Bronco Raptor Is Coming On Monday, January 24


https://tflcar.com/2022/01/ford-bron...r-teaser-news/

So many questions.

Suspension design? Will it simply be a ROW Ranger Raptor derived system or something unique?

Drivetrain? Will it simply be the 3.0EB this seems most likely as it shares all mounting points as the 2.7EB, but provides a healthy power bump.
Maybe the 3.5EB, but probably not, unless it's going to be a H.O. version offering the full 450/510, I don't see the R&D for it being "worth while".
How about the Coyote, this is actually more likey than one might think. With development into the Bronco DR to hold the 5.0L it would make sense to utilize that R&D to recover costs. The only thing I have doubts about on this are would it encroach on the DR's uniqueness?

Guess we'll find out on Monday.

The suspension looks pretty good over all. The travel especially. Stronger axels, wider stance, 37's, bead lock wheels, live valve dampers, etc.

The 3.0EB was pretty foreseeable. The 400hp/415tq in it's other applications should work well, however Ford not clearly stating those numbers makes me wonder if they're looking to bump the number up a touch. The 400/415 is with a stock 12 psi max boost, if I remember correctly. Adjusting that is relatively easy. I guess it depends on if they really want to try play a numbers game vs the Wrangler 392, my gut says they won't.

Can ford even build them? Have they caught up to existing Bronco demand?

I've maybe seen 1 one the road in my neck of woods.

Me too. Thankfully more than Sports, lol.

But also any new GM stuff. Lucky area I guess. Like Hummer EV drives casually since last year, like a guy/gal lives nearby. I've seen C8 pulled over by Police before they officially announced it

Not that anyone will ever see one for base MSRP.
