This is the new Ford Bronco!
It’s an almighty, All-American off-roader and Mat’s taking it for a test drive to see if it really lives up to the hype!
For starters, there’ll be no mistaking it for another car, thanks to the huge BRONCO badge up front. Not only that, but the boxy style & shape are instantly recognisable as Ford’s well-known off-roader.
When it comes to performance, there are two engines to choose, with the top-of-the-range being a 2.7-litre V6 that delivers 330hp & 560Nm of torque. It’s also equipped with AWD, and it comes as an automatic.
So, does the new Bronco have what it takes to compete with its oh-so popular predecessors? Or are you better off looking elsewhere if you’re in the market for an off-roader? Mat’s about to find out!

So, do you need a Ford Bronco!? Let us know below!
love your vdos
Nope
Mat please do more Toyota reviews and drag races
Don’t need one but doesn’t mean I don’t want one
Sure I need one
We can all agree that we missed a big opportunity to go full "Cowwow" here
‘What have you 🎓🎩💎
go into her room, don’t 🤙🤘🖖🤞✌️👇
Exactly what I thought 🤣
🤣🤣😜
I would argue that it would be Cowcupwow...
"Someone from Birmingham with a cowboy hat" - isn't that just *Richard Hammond* 😂
This is some serious Cultural appropriation going on here. I just can't think of which authorities we are supposed to report them to.
We all know Hammond is a secret American.
@@guidedmeditation2396 Woke police... You can only find them on twitter though
That's Lemmy too
The reason for the cheap materials on the interior is the same reason for all the seats to be manually adjusted, because it has floor drains and is made to be able to be sprayed out with a hose to rinse the dirt away.
since when is water resistant and cheap materials unavoidably tied together lol
@@JMNTN cause cheap feeling is usually hard wearing, its a 4wd the inside will get coverd in mud so id want it to be hard wearing and easy to clean
That's just what they tell you. This thing is a profit machine.
No, it’s cheap cause it’s cheap and makes them more money
@@fryconntinumum6559 mate it starts at 30k usd(about 22k gbp)
As an American, I can say that parading animal carcasses around town on the hood of my car is one of my favorite past times!
🤣
😂😂
😂😂😂
Yes
@Roberto buitrago Jesus Christ man it’s a youtube comment not a goddam essay
😂the moment when Matt realized you wouldn't need the window switch if the door wasn't there
😂😂
I thought i was the only one
what about the wiring and stuff?
Lame comment
I’ve been tryna figure that out for the past 5 years 😂
FINALLY! Someone has realized the importance and scientific validity of the universal CGT (cup-glove test)
@Phoenix 𝙾𝚙𝚎𝚗 𝙼𝚢 PROFILE how many times have you made this comment looking for subscribers?🤔
Also CGT **** rating is the only reason for 'buy it' recommendation outside of north America.. because competitors just offer more for less $. WTH Matt?
Yes!
9:50 a possible reason for NO PLASTIC covers is that, if such a vehicle is used in wet off-road terrain. Then water could accumulate under the covers thus speeding up corrosion. But still, I agree the finish should be better. (That's exactly what happened on my old off-roader)
As an American i appreciate you wearing the cowboy hat throughout the entire video.
i love how some broncos can be pulled apart like a lego set
Holy hell, how many bots are there?
@@BurnPerimeter Too many.
"obviously the americans need to push the steering wheel back because of their big bellies" -🤣🤣🤣 mat cracking me up
I wish Jeremy Clarcson could review this car it would be 5% review and 95% roasting americans.
Lame comment
Yes, and the Broncos exported to the UK include dental floss and tooth brushes...
I just come to read these random bot messages.
CAN THE SPAMMERS PLEASE PISS OFF?!
I LOVE your reviews, even if it isn't a car I'm interested in! Your wicked sense of humor, while still giving GREAT information is so much fun! Keep up the GREAT work!!!!!
Matt, I have watched many of your video reviews and you are getting better all the time. This review of the “Great Bronco” had me laughing my ass off, keep them coming!!! Cheers.
I totally forgot about the existence of teletext… Made me realize how old I actually feel right now. 😂
the fact that i dont even know what that is
My dad still use teletext, he has a smartphone an know well how to use, but oldschool is oldschool
I remember playing a game on teletex but can't remember what it was called
Reminds me of my childhood. I remember my dad used to use it all the time after watching the F1 😆
the house, and thought🧗♀️🤹♀️🤹♂️🤺🤾♀️🤾♂️🤽♀️
8:40 I think that is an emergency funnel adapter for a petrol jerrycan because the fuel filler is a capless design
You are correct, however Mat has found another usage for it 😆
Lmao petrol
I have one in my car's boot where the spare wheel is and I never quite figured out what it was for, so thank you!
Hi mat, I went on the website and saw a 2021 Cadillac escalade. If you could review it that would be epic to see if it could cope in the UK.
Yes but make sure that it’s the new one, the old one sucked
@@julienklimsza6698 it didn’t suck, it was just a bit old.
It's not available in the UK.
@@gavinwyllie7855 ik, but he said that the man I think imports it from America and converts it to UK style so with like t right hand drive and stuff so then you can get it here.
Agree!
Those hooks on the hood are not only for tie downs, but for running lines to the corners of the roof. This is to push branches and debris away from the windshield when on trails, protecting the driver and vehicle.
I test drove it at my local dealership here in the states and I had SO MUCH FUN. The turbo V6 is stout imo, it's big, beautiful, and have road presence. Can't wait to see what the Bronco R will look like
Me:"It was red in the thumbnail" Mat:"It wasn't" Me: "Wasn't it ? It was red" Mat:"It wasn't" Me: "I'd have sworn it was red, wasn'it it?" Mat: "It was blue"
reference to TG Bolivia Special? No? just me? OK.
@@JohnnyBC1337 Top Gear New Zealand Race but hey you were close mate
Lame comment
@@egnolanosnhoj3596 How old are you? Kids these days.
The two bits sticking up either side on the front of the bonnet are for attaching wires to them, then up to the attachment point on the roof or to the roof rack, the idea is that it will then deflect any tree branches etc off the bonnet and windscreen, just in case the trail gets narrow. :)
Looks wise, this wees all of the new Defender. Looks like a great homage to the original, while looking completely fresh 👌
3:00 Clive Sutton is about to become Carwow’s equivalent of Doug Demuro’s CNC Motors
yes.
True, although Clive Sutton doesn't have controversies unlike CNC Motors.
Review all of them haha. Love your reviews. All will be informative, interesting and hilarious :) Keep up the good work
Hooks at top front of vehicle are tie downs but also useful for branch deflection by means of attaching a cable between the tie downs and the roof rack to protect your windsheild from protruding obstacle at the sides.
Bronco looks amazing with big off road tyres. And of course it's a proper off roader with huge mud tyres.
Mat Watson best car reviewer

Just not off-roaders.
I'd definitely be curious to see Matt's take on the Escalade or GT500
I've seen so many reviews talking about how perfect this truck is, it's nice to see all the annoying 'quirks and features' pointed out. Still like it though.
Love this machine ❤️
but why? its ugly and too expensive
@@Thatsme849 I think it looks cool. But it’s not even expensive. It’s right about where it should be.
@@Thatsme849 it makes others like a birth defect lol

is it rest in peace or in pieces ?
07:18 when Mat talks about the doors & windows. Best part of this video 😃
Great video! I loved the ‘coffee cup’ hands! My mate has no hands and he will be learning to drive in a year or so. It’ll be interesting to see whether he can operate the ‘normal’ heater, infotainment, window, light etc. controls. Just a thought, maybe consider a video for people with physical disabilities who can still legally drive. Which ‘normal’ family cars work best for those with, for example, no hands (stumps instead). He’s a massive fan of yours Mark and loves when you race against Yanni. Keep up the great work guys!👌
That was so funny. ;p
This is a true offroader and has a stunning design
I love these boxy muscular SUV’s way better then those weird crossover looking things
11:42 Love the Ace Ventura reference!
wow, those prices are crazy. A Bronco here in Canada starts at 40k CAD and you can get one for 50-52k well equipped. 50k is £30k.
It is so cheap there
The hooks on the front attach to the hooks on the roof, creating a 'rope wall' to keep the tree branches away from the windshield
They’re called limb risers I believe.
"im not allowed to take this offroad vehicle offroad"
That's because if he break it, he owns it.
🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪
With stock tires on 4 door version of Defender against optional bigger tires for 4 door version of Bronco, Bronco is a better off-roader than Defender as you can see in the video below, but Defender is definitely more luxurious and enjoyable outside off-roading, while Wrangler is more akin to agricultural tool/pure off-roader, as was the original Land Rover Defender with not so much to offer in terms comfort or exceptional road worthiness but it is smaller and more nimble for off-road and tight old town infrastructure... kzhead.info/sun/Zp1qcdd5iqijnHA/bejne.html
Não se pode exigir demais de um carro rústico, esse Bronco é um espetáculo
Informative . . . and gave me the giggles, a couple of times ! - Nice one Mat
A purple Ralph Lauren t shirt, a navy cowboy hat and two handsome staff in a convertible Bronco. You boys are ready for the Pride Parade!
Jealous that you aren't there?🤔
@@gavinwyllie7855 Jealous that he’s a regular human being?🤣
Since I’m not British, I have a hard time with his humor, I’m confused as to when this guy is just saying something awfully stupid or when it comes to the humorous register...
Not quite. They’d need a Dodge diesel to complete the look.
Hi carwow! Please review more cars that are American but imported in the UK 🇬🇧 plz
Not many american cars are officially imported and if you import a new one yourself it usually doubles the price. So...pointless generally.
how bout no they're all cringy he tries so hard to offend them somehow and make fun of them smh
@@BenSpies19 who?
I love it. I think if you want a practical offroader that works it's a great option and certainly not dafter than all those Chelsea tractors on the road.
Quite difficult choice, we all know the Land Rover will break down continuously, but the Ford looks cheaper. At least you will look rich waiting for LR assist next to the road.
Mat roasting Americans 🤣😂 is the best thing 🤣

Does it make you feel better about yourself?
The way Matt behaves, his kids have the best dad. He seems funny
I'd also guess the same but without knowing him personally that's impossible to say. Maybe he gives it all while on camera and when he's home he turns into the grumpiest person on the planet 🤣
Bro he doesn't have a wife he is just dating for now
@@sayaan3259 It's really creepy when people start discussing KZhead personalities like they know them personally. Pease stop, everyone getting involved in this.
Unless you're one of those kids that outgrow their parent, and think the comedy bit is immensely embarrassing.
I don’t think he has any kids as far as I know.
Those tie points on the hood/bonnet are for cables that also attach to the roof so, when branches fall in the woods, they dont crush/scratch your windshield.
Love the comment about windows switch.....Matt you are hilarious 🤣
This was a particularly entertaining episode.
Most entertaining really
Your life must be eternally boring. You must be fun at parties (if ever invited)

Mat Watson would make an amazing Top Gear presenter.
Gotta say the Outer Banks, despite being the 2nd trim from the bottom gets quite a lot of nice stuff. Guess I'm off to Clive Sutton tomorrow to quote on a Black Diamond delivery 😂😍
Love the bronco,personally I prefer it to the defender,great video.
Absolutely lost it at "is that a she wee"
As Doug DeMuro said: "The Ford Bronco is the hottest SUV of the year." And it really is!
We need to appreciate that carwow havenliked your comment Respect carwow 👏
I'd like to see a Matt Doug collab like Doug checks out Matt's Quirks and Features Wait no that's kinky

At first I thought this might be a successor to my old Grand Vitara soft-top....... but not so much. The GV was cheap and relatively economical for its day, whilst still being very capable off road. I'll just have to hope Dacia will take a can-opener to the Duster, like the old one from the 80s.
This one is cheap too. Standard popular crossover pricing.
Tabs on the hood are for tying cables from them to the roof, so when driving through the woods, branches will be pushed up and over the roof.
Removable roof looks like it was designed in the 60's and fit in diabolical.
Oh man, if you said “And you’re watching Cow WOW”, that would of been so funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is One of the funniest car review video of Mat. Like the way he reviews a vehicles😄
As an American who watches you all the time, this is by far the funniest video you’ve ever done. Love it
I think mat going insane, cup gloves.....😂😂
I love what Matt said about the window switches, every single car reviewer are God damn lazy and generic in their response say that the window switches are not on the door because you can take the doors off, but if you take out door you still not going to use that switch, He really critizes vehicles and he is not trying to sell you the car like others he really goes in detail and explains all the negatives, like Mercedes off set steering he was the only person who pointed that out too me and no one else even noted this not even Doug Demuro
The switches not being on the door means that there is less wiring going through the door, (less complexity means a smaller and less complex wiring link can be used where to doors separate from the car) so making it easier to remove the doors. The other reviewer presumably already knew this and figured the audience would know as well. whereas Matt did not do his homework, the same reason why he did not know what the two bits on the bonnet was for either.
@@RobG001 - Also, if the switch was on the doors there would need to be constant 12V (IGN) power on the door jamb. Potential issue shorting out fuses if someone poked around in the connector. Or, more probably, plugged in accessories, since off-roaders always want to add insane amounts of things like lighting bars.
@@RobG001 How often in the entire life of this vehicle is it going to be driven with doors !! Now imagine reaching out every single time to the middle console of the front seats to open the windows....
Best review and video by far 🤣😂😂 best motoring journalist 👌🏻
Loved the boot space clip 😃
Matt I'm nominating you for the Oscar Award for being the best car show presenter ever, (Slowly like Matt will say) if there's any thing like that. Eat your heart out Doug.
7:20 that reaction is crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cup gloves bit had me laughing my head off comedy that Matt haha
Mat, although I don't always agree with your opinion (it would be a bit weird though if I did;p) I found this channel as well as your private one as l unquestionably the best sources of information about cars. I love the way you are describing them and have much of respect for how the real passion for automotive keeps pouring out of your heart whenever you talk about a car. Keep doing great work 👍 👏
7:25 They moved the window buttons so that when you remove the door, you dont need to remove the wires.
So are the window motors like wireless or battery powered or something?
@@JamieFrew Hamsters. You have to feed and clean the doors daily.
11:43 I laughed more than I should 😂 hilarious part
Cup Gloves!!!😂😂😂epic. I love this channel.🍾🍾🍾
Would love to see a review of Escalade, Yukon and the navigator - if I money was no object, I would love to get one of these, fell in love with them when I went to the Washington car show many years ago……. Their bonnets came up to my armpits 😂😂😂
They were great in their time, but with today's gas prices you'd need to remortgage the house just to fill the tank.
Matt's jokes had me dying 🤣
Love how you kept the cowboy hat on for the entire piece and not just the opening segment 👏🏻 🤠🐴
Happy and proud to live in America! Having not boring cars like in some other areas.
You should definitely check out the Escalade. The tech on that car looks insane
Funny, Matt has just one stereotype of Americans: Cowboys from Texas. That's alright. Americans think all Brits are snooty Downton Abbey residents that speak the Queen's English while sipping tea with their pinkies up.
It could be worse. It could be a fat guy with burger in one hand and gun in the other.
Most Americans never leave their own state,never mind leaving their country so that's why the rest of the world laugh in their general direction. How wouid you know about other countries or cultures apart from tv?😂
@@gavinwyllie7855 most people in general don’t leave their countries, goofy.
the uk from top to bottom is totally different. im from dundee scotland and just 60 miles from me i cant understand the west coast language then 3 hours from there your in england and cant understand liverpool.
I'm from Arizona and living in Texas. We wear cowboy hats in our full size trucks not Broncos and Jeeps. We wear them to protect from the sun while we work on the ranch. We don't have the dreary drizzly weather you have. But, Mat does wear the hat well. Cheerio
The ultimate off-road vehicle! Can’t wait for the Ford Bronco Raptor! 😅
You keep getting better... Entertaining and Informative-Best humor is when you make fun of yourself and trash both sides of the pond
The hooks on the bonet are for cables that reach up to the roof to protect from branches
Does it have a hydraulically-actuated bonnet that can flip other cars several feet into the air? If not, it's not worthy of the Bronco name.
or you may fall and break the😸😺💩🤖👾👽👻

Great review! Just wait for the INEOS Grenadier if you're looking for a quality off roader.
The white plastic tube is for filling up with a gas can because there is no gas cap and to get more storage height there is a lever near the left side of the rear window that you press and then there is a bar to hold the rear window part
Dream car, even the original one will do💯
14:15 is this the same road where James Bond wrecks his Aston Martin in Casino Royale?
Correct, it's Millbrook Proving Grounds, Having been there myself a few times, the mark where the flip actually happened is still in the road surface today.
@@edwardfeast1697 interesting, thanks mate!
LMAO The cup gloves was a genius touch! (Scuse the pun pardner)
4:55 I have died 😂 Matt I finally rest my case, I honestly don't think your ok, why wouldn't it fit the real GOAT acronym 😂
FYI, an M3/M4 Competition does the brake test from 70 MPH in 39 metres! This did it from 60mph in 39 metres!
But it’s not as heavy and a Bronco isn’t a sports car
Bronco may done a bit better with optional bigger tires.
Ford - “ hi Matt. Here’s a new off-roader we’ve made!” Matt - “can I take it off-road?” Ford - “eeeerrrm…..no”
kzhead.info/sun/iNuxd8NojpVjfaM/bejne.html
typical Ford, right?
not sure what your point is... many people have taken it off road and the thing is insanely capable
Car wasn't from Ford. It was from someone who imported it for sale. So they don't want it ruined.
It’s not from Ford. lol 🤦♂️
Sorry if someone else has pointed this out but the tube thing in the boot is for filling up in case the nozzle on the pump doesn't fit! I carry one in my Ford Focus Diesel.
Finally, a reason to watch Carwow!
I went in a range rover for the first time the other day, they're not very big on the inside, it actually felt a little cramped in there even compared to my old S-Max.
what world do you live in were the Range Rover is a small car ?
@@The.Fake.Adam.Lulich I didn't say the car is small just small inside, given the size of the car you'd expect lots of room but it was small, genuinely don't see the appeal, all that money for less space than a car half its price.
@@will4may175 Oh. My bad
i’d love to see a review of the f1 car
Matt! I loved the reference to Ace Ventura in this video… only if you had hair like Jim Carrey too 🤣🤣
Throw the auxiliary anchors out the back to improve braking. They're in the pockets either side of the trunk. Can you fit a larger motor under the hood?
