The Automatic climate control and Voice-activated climate control systems ensure the cabin remains at your preferred temperature regardless of the weather outside.

Practicality is evident throughout the cabin, from the 60-40 folding rear seats that expand your cargo capacity to the Cargo area concealed storage and Front Driver/Passenger Seat Back Map Pockets. Passengers in the back will appreciate the Rear under seat climate control ducts and the Rear seat center armrest. The inclusion of a POWER MOONROOF allows natural light to fill the space, while the Leatherette steering wheel and Metal-look interior accents add a touch of refinement to the Sport front bucket seats.

Safety and Driver Assistance Systems

Safety is paramount, and this SUV is equipped with a comprehensive suite of driver-assist technologies designed to provide peace of mind. The Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and Pedestrian Detection act as an extra set of eyes, while the BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) and Rear Cross-Traffic Braking help you navigate crowded parking lots and lane changes safely.

On the highway, the Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go and Lane-Keeping System with Lane Centering reduce driver fatigue during long hauls through the surrounding area. The vehicle is protected by 7 airbags, including a Driver side knee airbag and the Safety Canopy System curtain first and second-row overhead airbags. Parking is made simple with the Rear mounted camera and Rear parking sensors, while Auto High Beam headlights ensure optimal visibility without blinding other drivers.

The Carbon Black Grille with Black Painted BRONCO Lettering and Black front and rear bumpers emphasize its adventurous DNA. This model also features the BLACK APPEARANCE PACKAGE, which complements the 17-inch black aluminum wheels and the Painted Shadow Black Roof.

Functional design elements abound, such as the Roof rails for carrying extra gear and the Flip-up rear windshield on the Liftgate, which allows for quick access to the cargo area.
