Description
The 2021 Ford Bronco marked the triumphant return of one of Ford’s most beloved off road nameplates after a 25 year hiatus, having last been produced in 1996. Revealed in July 2020 to widespread anticipation, the sixth generation Bronco arrived as a genuine competitor to the Jeep Wrangler, offered in both two door and four door configurations built on a body on frame platform for serious off road durability. Power came from a choice of a 2.3 litre turbocharged four cylinder or a 2.7 litre twin turbocharged V6, paired with either a seven speed manual featuring a crawler gear or a ten speed automatic transmission, giving buyers a genuine mix of everyday usability and hardcore trail capability.
True to its off road mission, the new Bronco featured removable doors and a removable roof, a twin arm front suspension paired with a solid rear axle, locking differentials, and an available Sasquatch package with 35 inch tires, among the largest offered on any factory SUV at the time. Ford also equipped the Bronco with a suite of trail focused technology, including downloadable trail maps and dashboard mounted “Off-Road Hero Switches” for controlling features like the sway bar disconnect, blending old school ruggedness with genuinely modern capability.
Matchbox brings this reborn off road icon into its Mainline series, numbered 102 out of 125. This casting captures the new Bronco’s boxy, upright proportions, round headlamps, and flared wheel arches, translating the SUV’s rugged, trail ready stance into 1:64 scale with the accurate, close to real world detailing Matchbox is known for.
