2020 Ford Bronco Scout/Adventurer:

LINK

International Harvester introduced its Scout SUV five years before the launch of the 1966 Ford Bronco. So it almost seems fitting that Ford's new, rugged-looking Escape-based Bronco Scout—which may actually end up being called the Ford Adventurer—will launch before the highly anticipated Ranger-based Bronco. Shown here are artist's renderings of what we think it will look like.

Engine choices will mimic what's available for the new Escape, from a 1.5-liter EcoBoost inline-three with 180 horsepower and 177 lb-ft to a 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder with 250 horsepower and 275 lb-ft, plus two hybrids—a conventional hybrid and a plug-in-hybrid option—both coupled to a 2.5-liter Atkinson cycle four.

In other news, Chevrolet is bringing back the Trailblazer.....as a compact crossover targeting younger buyers who like to think that they are rugged and outdoorsy. It will be on sale in January and will be offered on every continent on earth.

And if there was any doubt that all of Detroit’s automakers uses the same focus groups, both the new Trailblazer and new Bronco are going to offer multi-colored roof options and blacked out grills with their turbocharged 4 cylinder engines.

I am sure these are good crossovers that 17 year old girls will enjoy driving, but I miss the 1990s SUVs.
