Features That Make the 2024 Bronco Sport Big Bend Ideal for Adventures Around Union County

Life on the Kentucky-Indiana border affords residents plenty of fun outdoor recreation, and you need a vehicle that can enhance your adventures. As a Ford dealer near Morganfield, we know that the 2024 Bronco Sport Big Bend is that vehicle. This subcompact SUV boasts awesome features that make it ideal for camping, days on the river, cruising around town, and whatever excursions you have planned. 

As the little sibling of the Ford Bronco, the Bronco Sport offers much of the rugged capabilities of the Bronco but in a convenient subcompact SUV frame, with great fuel economy and an undeniably attractive price point. The Big Bend is the starting trim of the Bronco Sport, making it the most affordable model. However, its low price point doesn’t translate to any sacrifices in terms of features and powers. Ready to get to know this energetic small SUV? Below, we’ll cover our favorite features that ensure this model will bump up the fun factor of your driving.

A Party-Ready Liftgate 

After a long day of kayaking on the Ohio River, you might want to kick back, enjoy the scenery, and have a little waterfront party with your friends. So you’ll appreciate the liftgate, which has two floodlights and a built-in bottle opener. If the party lasts past sunset, you’ll need a way to illuminate your hangout area. 

Those powerful floodlights can illuminate a large area, like a campsite or BBQ zone. So if you’re all set up on a remote stretch of the river with few (or no) street lights in sight, you don’t need to shut it down just because the sun has gone down. These floodlights will come in handy on camping trips, during tailgates, and really any outdoor excursion where you need a powerful light source.

Then the built-in bottle opener means you’ll always have a way to crack open your refreshing beverages, even when nobody has packed a portable bottle opener. The Bronco Sport Big Bend is made for the types of adventures that have you craving a cold one after, so you’ll love ensuring you always have a way to open your bottles, whether you’re sipping sodas or adult beverages. There is also a total of eight cupholders inside the vehicle, so traveling with a tasty drink on hand is possible for all of your passengers.

Roof Rack Side Rails and MOLLE Straps For Endless Cargo Options

Think of all the items you need to transport to enjoy your adventures. Kayaks, dirt bikes, and coolers full of bait for fishing. If you’ve loaded up your Bronco Sport Big Bend with buddies, then you’ll need a way to secure these items on the exterior of the vehicle. You have it, thanks to the roof rack side rails. You can use these as mounting points for roof racks or other accessories that boost your cargo-carrying capacity. They’re also great for items that simply would never fit inside the vehicle, like dirt bikes or surfboards. Even when your adventure gear could fit inside, you might not want to put it inside if it’s wet and muddy after a long day of play. So you’ll like the fact that you can stash it on the roof and keep the interior clean.

On the inside, you’ll find a MOLLE strap system. These rows of heavy-duty nylon webbing, stitched directly into the backs of the seats, give you a secure place to attach small items you need to keep nearby. From flashlights and climbing ropes to water canisters and multi-purpose tools, there are probably several small items that you frequently use on your outdoor excursions. Stuffing these deep down inside of a backpack just isn’t practical-you don’t want to go digging for them each time you need them. The MOLLE strap system lets you store them in plain sight without creating clutter on the seats or floor.

A Terrain Management System That Can Go Anywhere

When your plans take you off the paved and predictable US 60, you need a vehicle that can handle whatever roads come next-especially if they aren’t exactly roads. So, you’ll love the Bronco Sport Big Bend’s Terran Management System with its five GOAT (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) modes. The five modes are sand, slippery, sport, eco, and normal. 

Whether you’re going off-roading on sand dunes or muddy paths or spending a day in town running errands, the vehicle is ready to make adjustments to adapt to your environment. The best part is that you can easily make these adjustments using the rotary knob just to the right of the driver’s seat. Plus, since 4WD comes standard on the Ford Bronco, you’ll always get the traction you need on all your tires when the roads get slippery.

An Available Power Moonroof and Standard Flip Up Rear Glass

On those beautiful summer days in Kentucky, you might just want to let the fresh air and natural light in. So you’ll enjoy the available power moonroof. At the touch of a button, the solid roof panel will slide back to reveal a sprawling window. You can leave it at that if you just want to enjoy the sun rays inside the vehicle. If you want a refreshing breeze in the cabin, you can also open that moonroof to let the fresh air in. 

Look to the back of your Bronco Sport Big Bend, and you’ll find a rear glass that you can actually flip up. So, between that open moonroof and rear glass, you can enjoy a really nice cross breeze. Whether you’re heading out of town on adventures or just cruising through the center of town, this is a great feature to help you make the most of warm weather days.
