The standard 1.5-liter EcoBoost delivers 181 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque – plenty of power for your daily commute.

Either Ford Bronco Sport engine is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission for smooth handling. For those who crave control, choosing the 2.0-liter EcoBoost adds paddle shifters to the steering wheel so you can take gear shifting into your own hands.
Ford Bronco Sport Top Speed
You can expect a zippy Bronco Sport top speed, rivaling other SUVs in its segment. While you may be able to push the gauge on the speedometer, this sport-ute's focus isn't on speed, despite its sporty nature. Rather, it's built for rugged capability, with features that make hitting the trails easier while maintaining practicality.
Ford Bronco Sport Drivetrain
The Ford Bronco Sport is a champion among versatile SUVs with its standard 4x4 drivetrain. When you opt for the available 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine, this drivetrain adds a twin-clutch rear-drive unit that makes traversing through tough terrain and challenging weather conditions even easier.

It's time to talk about enhancements and accessories. Whether you're looking for Bronco Sport 1.5 performance upgrades or something for the 2.0-liter powertrain, there are tons of OEM components for sale. Although you likely won't find genuine parts designed to boost horsepower or torque, you can access everything you need to keep your powertrain in pristine condition – from full-on kits to individual pieces.
