2020/2021 Ford Bronco Test-Mule Spied(??)

[E365]

Allegedly a test-mule for the new Bronco. And no, it won't actually look like this. ...„ Most likely testing the chassis/suspension/power train with a chopped-up Ranger body installed. They're really hiding the rear suspension set-up with those brush sets.

Here's the official Ford teaser image from a year ago to see what the real profile will look like.

It appears to be IRS.

That sure does make the eyes do funny things.

That's what I'm afraid of. IRS just doesn't seem right in a Bronco, but this is Ford. It does look like it has some ground clearance, but the big tires are helping.

Not that I'm going to buy one anyway, I bought me a fancy used Explorer. 247K miles isn't that much over 25 years. ...

I didn't know there was going to be a "family" of Broncos as the article states, should be interesting.

I like the ground clearance and solid rear axle. TTB or a solid axle up front would be nice, but I know that won't happen.

I hope it's not really ugly.
