Since we’re currently enjoying the much-beloved holidays, we could easily say this Big Bend 4-Door 2021 Ford Bronco would have been a perfect fit as a replacement for Santa’s old sleigh. But we all know the Blue Oval is not letting the SUV into the wild just yet and won’t do so until next summer.
As such, we already know this Rapid Red, soft top-equipped example is a prototype. One that was spotted courtesy of the Bronco Battalion USA just casually chilling the winter wonderland weather of Michigan. That is an opportunity to extract some interesting information.

First of all, we all know there’s a major conundrum among Internet fans of the Bronco – people can’t seem to agree if the reinvented off-roader looks good when sporting white detailing or not. With the Michigan snow at the forefront in this group of shots of the Bronco, we have a weather-based solution.

Just leave the Bronco out in the snow whenever you feel like sporting white fender flares and running boards. Then, when you get tired of the white looks, just take the proper detailing tools and get rid of the snow. And yes, we know very well the solution is a bit trickier to apply when focusing on the top!

Joking aside, we have a feeling that Rapid Red is going to become a favorite among Bronco buyers – based solely on the reception these spotted prototypes have among the community dwellers. It’s an optional hue but at $295, it’s not exactly the most expensive acquisition from the Build & Price online configurator tool.

As far as the Big Bend trim is concerned, things are a little muddier for the “Mainstream Off-Roading” option from the catalog. The second out of five guises, a 4-Door Big Bend Bronco costs at least $35,880, and opinions are divided between selecting the cheaper base model ($34,795) and shelling a bit more cash for an Outer Banks rig ($38,955), for example.
