Buying the 2021 Ford Bronco Sport Base

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2021 Ford Bronco Sport Base for sale by us right now. Here is the 2021 Ford Bronco Sport Base for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA has 709 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, power train and engine. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 16 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

Under the hood

It is powered by the 1.5L 3-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 27 litres, from its 9.0 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $139.50. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Inside and out

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

Good uses for the Bronco Sport

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Try before you buy

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the Bronco Sport on your commute before you commit to it. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.

Running costs

The EPA estimates US$2,600 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $139.50 at our price setting.

Narrowing it down

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

A note on Java

Java is about 771 km from our Toronto location: the car is picked up in Toronto, or delivered on request. If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Java.

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.
