In the realm of off-road exploration and desert racing, the Ford Bronco has long been a revered name, synonymous with durability and adventure. Pushing this legacy to unprecedented heights, Ford introduced the all-new 2023 Bronco DR—a testament to extreme off-roading prowess, designed exclusively for the aficionados of desert racing. With its launch, the Bronco brand elevates its desert racing capability to an unparalleled level, making the Bronco DR a limited-production SUV that’s more than a rarity.
The Bronco DR stands as the most powerful production Bronco to ever hit the terrain. At its heart lies a largely stock 5.0-liter Coyote V-8 engine, renowned for its robust performance. Complemented by thunderous exhaust headers, this powertrain is made for conquering the untamed with vigor and might. But let’s be clear—this vehicle isn’t for the faint-hearted. It’s a specialized tool designed for a select few, destined to become an instant off-road legend.
Every aspect of the Bronco DR screams competition-ready. Equipped with Multimatic Positional Selective DSSV™ Dampers and a Multimatic safety cage, it’s clear that safety and performance go hand in hand. The 37-inch BFGoodrich® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM3 all-season tires and beadlock wheels are ready to tackle any challenge thrown at them, making this Bronco a formidable contender in the harshest of environments.
Angles matter in off-road racing, and the Bronco DR boasts an approach angle of 47 degrees, a departure angle of 37 degrees, and a breakover angle of 33 degrees. These specifications ensure that virtually no obstacle is insurmountable. Moreover, to align with desert racing requisites and to achieve significant weight savings, non-essential features such as the air conditioning, interior amenities, and all glass have been removed, reinforcing its race-focused demeanor.
Marking its exclusivity, this Bronco is numbered #33 out of only 50 ever made, making it a rare jewel in the off-road racing world. Ready to conquer the Baja 1000, it comes with race essentials including 1 Race Tyre, 1 Spare Wheel and Tire, Steering Wheel Paddle Shift, Siren, 1 Lighting Roof Bar, 1 Lighting Grille Bar, and a Lighting Accessory Kit with Factory Livery. These additions, valued at just under $50,000, are not merely add-ons but necessities for the discerning racer.
This 2023 Ford Bronco DR Limited Edition is an investment in unparalleled performance and exclusivity. It’s a testament to Ford’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of what off-road vehicles can achieve and an invitation to become part of a legacy that few can claim to belong to.
For the hardcore off-road enthusiast who seeks the pinnacle of desert racing capability, the Ford Bronco DR is more than just a machine—it’s a dream realized. Are you ready to take the helm of this ultimate off-road champion?
