If you aren’t wild about big, burly SUVs, but need more space than a car can provide, and you’d like something a bit sporty, the 2024 Ford Bronco Sport should suit you perfectly. Better yet, even the base model is so filled with highly desirable standard features, that you probably won’t even have to look at upgrades or higher trim levels. The Bronco Sport is in the top five of Car and Driver’s 2024 Best Compact SUVs list. Check out why the Bronco Sport personifies adventure in compact form.

Design
You can even be comfy while adventuring in your 2024 Bronco Sport because its upright seats help to provide more space. Even the amount of legroom in the back seat is quite satisfactory. The safari-style roof also contributes to the spaciousness, there’s room for two bikes to be stored upright. Even the lowest trim has convenient standard features such as heated side mirrors and Electronic Automatic Temperature Control with rear air ducts.
It’s obvious that Ford engineers seriously considered how you might use your Bronco Sport. The bottle opener and two standard floodlights on the rear liftgate will add a great deal of convenience to your future tailgate parties and camping trips. If you do happen to be interested in upgrades, a power moonroof, 8-way adjustable driver’s seat, and heated front seats are all available for the base model.
Performance
Adventures should have 4-wheel drive, and it’s standard throughout the 2024 Bronco Sport lineup. The base model’s standard 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder EcoBoost engine provides 181 hp and 190 lb-ft of torque. It’s matched with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Another standard feature you’ll appreciate on your adventures is the terrain management system that offers five driving modes from which you can choose: Sand, Slippery, Sport, Eco, and Normal.
Technology
There’s no reason you can’t have entertainment on adventures, and all of the 2024 Bronco models have a 6-speaker audio system with AM/FM stereo and Sirius XM satellite radio except for the top two trims, which have 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound systems. An 8-inch LCD swipeable capacitive touchscreen is standard throughout the line. It’s the interface for Ford’s SYNC communication and entertainment system, which includes Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and enhanced voice recognition.
Two USB ports are standard on the Bronco Sport, one Type A and one Type C. All models have the option for a wireless charging pad and a voice-activated touchscreen navigation system with SiriusXM Traffic/Traffic Plus and Travel Link.
Safety
You need not worry about the 2024 Bronco Sport’s safety. The National Highway Traffic Safety Association (NHTSA) awarded it a perfect 5-star overall safety rating. Plus, even the line’s base model has valuable standard driver’s aid safety features, including:
- Pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking
- Lane-keeping system
