The Ford Bronco Raptor Draws the Attention of Attendees at the 2022 Detroit Auto Show
The Ford Bronco Raptor grabs the attention of attendees at the 2022 Detroit Motor Show with a unit finished in a striking metallic green paint hue.
Although it was presented at the beginning of the year, the Ford Bronco Raptor has the peculiarity that it can still attract the attention of the attendees of the 2022 Detroit Motor Show, an event that is being held eight months after its debut. And it is that the unit that Ford has exposed there is a magnet for the looks of the most curious.
The vehicle in question is a Ford Bronco Raptor finished in a striking paint called Eruption Green Metallic. When you upgrade the Ford F150 vehicle, have you ever thought about the Ford Raptor 3rd Brake Light on the top? Of course, it integrates all the aesthetic details that make the Bronco a radical off-roader, like the flared wheel arches, its beefy bumpers, the big wheels with all-terrain tires and that aggressive hood with vents.
Why the return of the Ford Bronco to Europe is excellent news for car lovers

When developing the Bronco Raptor, Ford engineers decided not to equip it with a V8 engine like the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392. However, the American firm did not fall short and opted for a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 engine that develops a power of 420 hp with 596 Nm of torque.
This means that it is much more powerful than the 2.3-litre Bronco EcoBoost with its 300PS and 440Nm of torque, and also more powerful than the turbocharged 2.6-litre V6 EcoBoost model that develops 330PS and 562Nm of torque. Despite this, it is still 50 hp less powerful than the Wrangler Rubicon 392 and develops 41 Nm of torque less.
The Ford Bronco Raptor is more than just an SUV with a powerful engine. Ford engineers installed new shock towers that increase suspension travel, new control arches and larger diameter rods. It also includes FOX shocks with internal bypass and a semi-active design that controls the height of each wheel hundreds of times per second.
With all that, and because the Raptor version of the Ford Bronco is a powerfully attractive vehicle that we hope will also make its way to the European market in the future, the off-roader is one of the main attractions at the 2022 Detroit Motor Show.
