PERFORMANCE
Ford Bronco

Power is essential for a thrilling off-road adventure. So, it only makes sense that you’d be curious about the amount of power each of these compact SUVs packs under its hood.

Power From the Start

The standard 2.3L EcoBoost® engine inside the Ford Bronco delivers a potent 300 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque. To find even more power, rev the Bronco’s available 2.7L EcoBoost® engine to achieve the following specs:

  • Up to 330 horsepower
  • Up to 415 lb-ft of torque
  • 4,500-pound towing capacity (when properly equipped)

If even that’s not enough oomph, the Bronco also makes available a 418-horsepower 3.0L EcoBoost® V6, which is standard on the Raptor trim.

The Competition Falls Behind

Each of these numbers provides an advantage over all trims of the RAV4. The Toyota’s standard engine is a 2.5L 4-cylinder powertrain, which generates 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. Its only alternative is a hybrid that pairs a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine with an electric motor. Together, they generate a maximum of 219 horsepower.

Additionally, the RAV4’s towing capacity peaks at just 3,500 pounds when properly equipped. So, when looking for the more powerful option, the answer is clearly any iteration of the Bronco.

Still, power alone isn’t the ultimate end result; it’s the catalyst that enables you to do whatever you want to do and go wherever you want to go. So, what can you do with all that power?

Custom-Designed for Your Adventure

While both SUVs can handle adventure, the Ford Bronco lets drivers choose the vehicle that matches their lifestyle and can power them to their dream destinations with available features such as:

  • Steel front and rear bumpers
  • Sasquatch package with 35-inch tires
  • 4x4 with Part-Time Selectable Engagement
  • Easy-to-remove doors and roof
  • Steel bash plates

The RAV4 doesn’t offer nearly as much flexibility. For example, it limits its drivetrains to standard front-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive. Plus, if you’re searching for greater traction, you’ll only be able to equip the TRD Off-Road trim with 18-inch wheels.

Off-Road Prowess

When talking about the Bronco, discussing the G.O.A.T.™ isn’t just flexing—it’s a core part of its identity. The Ford’s G.O.A.T. Modes™ (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain™) provide drivers with the management system to handle seven types of terrain.

The Toyota RAV 4 also offers a Multi-Terrain Select option through its TRD Off-Road Trim. Still, this terrain-management system only provides five off-road modes. So, drivers of the RAV4 will be more limited in their ability to take the road less traveled.

INTERIOR

Both the Ford Bronco and the Toyota RAV4 provide a comfortable driving experience, but which?interior?is better built to handle the great wide open?

A Look Inside

Available features inside the Ford Bronco allow you to select an SUV equipped to handle your next getaway:

  • Marine-grade vinyl seats
  • Rubberized flooring with drain plugs
  • 360-degree camera

The Bronco can also accommodate design features, like leather seats and carpeted flooring.

Almost, but Not Quite

Like the Bronco, the RAV4 does give drivers an available 360-degree camera to provide a glimpse of your surroundings. However, Toyota’s SUV doesn’t include rough-and-ready interior features, like rubberized flooring and marine-grade vinyl seats.
