In the first three weeks, more than 165,000 people placed $100 deposits for orders online, and more than 13 million tuned in on television and social media platforms to see the highly anticipated off-road SUVs.

Hours after the July 13 reveal, #FordBronco dominated social media platforms and trended to the top conversation on Twitter in the United States. Ford Bronco also became the top Google search request, helping drive more than 5.4 million visitors to the ford.com website in the first 48 hours.

Ford converted these amazing numbers into sales as by the following day, all of the 2,000 limited-run Bronco Sport First Edition models and 3,500 Bronco 2-Door and 4-Door First Edition models were spoken for. There was so much demand for the latter models that Ford doubled production to 7,000 units. Ford continues to accept Bronco reservations on its website, while Bronco Sport models are now available for ordering online and at dealerships.

In a related announcement, Ford said the first of four ‘Bronco Off-Roadeo’ locations in the United States will open in summer 2021. Located in the hill country of Austin, Texas, the Bronco Off-Roadeo will enable Bronco and Bronco Sport Badlands series owners to get the most adventure out of their rugged SUVs and build connections to the greater Bronco community.
