2021 Ford Bronco: Lightning Blue Is Limited, Warthog/Raptor Getting 37-Inch Tires

Ford's official Twitter account kicked out two significant revelations about the 2021 Bronco SUV today: First, it'll offer a huge 37-inch tire option from the factory, and second, the available Lightning Blue paint color will be limited to Launch Edition models . Besides turning the spotlight back to the Bronco after its big reveal in July and before its on-sale date early next year, the tweets filled in some more pieces of the production 44's puzzle for excited fans eager for more info. Testing 37-inch hooves! Future weekends are about to get a lot better! #FordBronco pic.twitter.com/KVugNgCT5r — Ford Motor Company (@Ford) September 25, 2020 Seriously, the Bronco's Getting a 37-Inch Tire Option? The tire-related Bronco tweet blares: Testing 37-inch hooves! alongside a picture of what appears to be a camouflaged prototype of the Raptor/Warthog high-performance version. Ford isn't being very coy here, and anyone who knows off-roaders knows the company is referring to the outer diameter of the tires on a camouflaged Bronco shown in the tweet.When the Bronco debuted, we were promised that Launch Edition models and every Bronco equipped with the available Sasquatch hardcore off-road package would ride on 35-inch meats. We also knew that the Bronco's spare tire carrier could hold bigger rubber, though we assumed that extra space was designed to ensure customers could upgrade to larger aftermarket tires. But it now appears the 2021 Bronco will offer larger, 37-inch tires from the factoryalthough whether they'll be limited to a beastlier off-road model such as the expected Raptor/Warthog or offered either as an option or via Ford Performance for other trims remains to be seen. For reference, the largest tire available from Jeep for the Wrangler measures 33 inches in diameter and comes with the Rubicon trim. On a scale of 1 to ????, how good does the #FordBronco look in Lightning Blue? Exclusively available to those who reserved a First Edition. pic.twitter.com/bDNIL7KnJB — Ford Motor Company (@Ford) September 23, 2020 Lightning Strike! In a separate Bronco-related tweet, Ford informed fans that the 2021 Bronco's Lightning Blue paint option would be restricted to the Launch Edition trim. No word yet on whether any of the other planned '21 Bronco paint colors are similarly limited in availabilityFord has yet to put up a consumer-facing online configurator for the new SUV, so specific feature and option offerings, restrictions, and combinations remain a mystery. --> The post 2021 Ford Bronco: Lightning Blue Is Limited, Warthog/Raptor Getting 37-Inch Tires appeared first on MotorTrend .
