Compare Bronco Sports with competition

See How the New Ford Bronco Sport Outperforms Its Rivals in Hanover, MA

If you're seeking a compact SUV that can power through rough terrain, but can also handle well on paved roads in Hanover, get the new Ford Bronco Sport. This crossover has rugged exterior styling and an open, airy interior. Other compact SUVs such as the new Jeep Compass, the Toyota RAV4, and the Chevy Equinox have their good points, but they can't match the Bronco Sport's combination of comfort, class, and capability. Jannell Ford of Hanover built the following comparison to show you why.

New Ford Bronco Sport vs. New Jeep Compass

The new Ford Bronco Sport and the new Jeep Compass are both compact SUVs that are famous for their off-road capability. While the Compass has been on the market for decades, the Bronco Sport was an all-new model in 2021. The Bronco Sport is a better all-around SUV than the Compass because of its:

  • Ride and Handling: The new Ford Bronco Sport has composed handling through turns, providing a pleasant, comfortable ride on paved streets in Brockton. The new Jeep Compass has a stiff ride, and harsh bumps and jolts can be felt in the cabin.
  • Engine Power: You'll have no problem merging into busy highway traffic in Weymouth with the new Ford Bronco Sport. It comes standard with a turbocharged 181-horsepower engine, but a turbocharged 250-horsepower four-cylinder motor is available for punchier get-up-and-go. The new Jeep Compass's lone engine is a turbocharged 200-horsepower four-cylinder engine that can get noisy under hard acceleration.
  • Cargo Space: If you're going to explore wooded areas outside of Marshfield, you'll want an SUV that has room for your gear. The new Ford Bronco Sport has up to 32.5 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats upright and up to 65.2 cubic feet of room with the back seats down. The new Jeep Compass only has 27.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row and just 59.8 cubic feet of room with the rear seats folded.

New Ford Bronco Sport vs. New Toyota RAV4

The new Ford Bronco Sport and the new Toyota RAV4 are both compact crossovers, but the RAV4 is more than a half foot longer than the Bronco Sport. The Bronco Sport has a boxier, more outdoorsy look than the conventionally styled RAV4. The Bronco Sport outdoes the RAV4 with its:

  • Off-Road Chops: If you want to be able to traverse treacherous landscapes near Plymouth, MA, you'll need an SUV that can clear large obstacles. The new Ford Bronco Sport comes standard with 8.8 inches of ground clearance and four-wheel drive that make it perfect for going off the beaten path. The new Toyota RAV4 only comes with 8.6 inches of ground clearance. All-wheel drive is available, but the RAV4 lacks the necessary go-anywhere equipment that you get with the Bronco Sport, like locking differentials and low-range gearing.
  • On-Road Handling: The new Ford Bronco Sport has responsive steering that keeps it poised on winding roads in Brockton. Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, and Sand drive modes allow you to fine-tune its driving dynamics. The new Toyota RAV4's steering feels somewhat vague at highway speeds, making it prone to wander within its lane.
  • Engine Power: It's a breeze to pass other vehicles in Hanover with the new Ford Bronco Sport. Its base engine is a turbocharged three-cylinder motor that makes 181 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque. You can upgrade its powertrain to a turbocharged four-cylinder motor that puts out 250 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque. The new Toyota RAV4's sole engine is a 203-horsepower four-cylinder engine that produces 184 pound-feet of torque. This motor sounds raspy and coarse when accelerating hard.

New Ford Bronco Sport vs. New Chevrolet Equinox

The new Ford Bronco Sport and the new Chevy Equinox are both classified as compact SUVs, even though the Equinox is over a foot longer than the Bronco Sport. While the Equinox is more known for being a people hauler, the Bronco Sport emphasizes capability. It outshines the Equinox with its:

  • Off-Road Proficiency: All Ford Bronco Sport models come with four-wheel drive and Badlands trims have 8.8 inches of ground clearance. They also come with Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, and Sand drive modes so that you can master any road or weather condition you may face in Weymouth and beyond. The new Chevy Equinox only has 7.6 inches of ground clearance. All-wheel drive is available in the Equinox, but it can't match the off-road skills that come with the Bronco Sport's four-wheel drive system.
  • Engine Power: The new Ford Bronco Sport is offered with two engine options, including an available turbocharged 250-horsepower four-cylinder motor that cranks out 277 pound-feet of torque. This engine shuttles the Bronco Sport around Marshfield with authority. The Chevy Equinox's only engine is a turbocharged 175-horsepower four-cylinder motor that makes 203 pound-feet of torque. It lacks the gusto most people want for spirited highway driving.
  • Cabin Quality: The new Ford Bronco Sport has durable plastic and rubber on its dash and door panels for easy cleanup after an excursion through the mud. Higher trims have plaid-patterned cloth seats or leather upholstery. Plymouth, MA drivers will like the Bronco Sport's available slide-out table, which doubles as a workspace in the cargo hold. The new Chevy Equinox has a simple interior design and too many hard plastics that detract from its overall feel.
