So not a bronco, but yet... a bronco.

the bronco sport is not a "sport" trim of the bronco. they really are completely different vehicles.
the bronco sport is a family oriented unibody SUV with a tiny 3-cylinder 1.5L engine and the bronco is an off-terrain body-on-frame vehicle with a much larger engine.

Somewhat larger. 2.3L base. 2.7L available. And in the Bronco Sport: 1.5L, 2.0L available.
Really hard to tear down people on here for a stupid thing Ford did.
Naming the Bronco Sport that was designed to create a confusion (association) with the other Bronco. Ford is reaping what they sowed.

I agree, but that doesn't change that people reading the article would've helped.
