hey guys it's chris from cnn today we're going to be talking about the brand new
2022 bronco raptor as well as some new s650 things including dark matter gray now seen on the s550
as well as some rolling footage of the s650 mustang so stay tuned we're going into it
first things first the bronco raptor this morning at 6 00 am ford dropped the video
the press released everything when it comes to the new bronco raptor and it is awesome it definitely
lives up to the name we've been seeing plenty of camouflage footage and photos and everything else
of the bronco for the past six eight months rolling into this and finally they released it
we knew it was coming and it's finally here so kicking things off the exterior looking at the
bronco in comparison to the regular bronco it's a huge difference when you're talking about stance
and how these two vehicles look next to each other there's no doubt that you know the bronco raptor
from the regular bronco not only is it taller and wider the track width is actually 8.6 inches wider
than the regular road-going bronco meaning this raptor is going to have a dominating presence on
the street or off-road in addition to that the overall width of the bronco is 9.8 inches wider
than your standard four-door bronco as well and you're also going to get 37-inch bf
goodrich ko2 all-terrain tires these can also be found on the regular f-150 raptor as well
but the big thing here is standard 37-inch tires these are the largest tires that have been offered
on an suv ever and the bronco has them standard definitely a statement from ford you can also
expect a minimum ground clearance of 13.1 inches but here's the cool thing this bronco raptor will
ford 37 inches of water that's over three feet of standing water very cool and you can bet that
the 37-inch tires definitely help that quite a bit because you're getting the bronco higher up
off the ground moving up to the engine bay this thing sports a three-liter ecoboost twin turbo v6
engine i believe it's very similar to the engine that we already see in the explorer st but on the
bronco raptor you can expect it to have over 400 horsepower no solid horsepower numbers quite yet
i'm sure they're getting their sae numbers in order as well as the epa ratings and things like
that so we can expect to see a horsepower and torque number here in the near future and with
increased power comes the ability to handle all that power all the way down to those 37 inch tires
you have a 10 speed automatic 10r80 transmission unfortunately that is the only available
transmission with this combo but let's be honest for those crawler guys and if you're jumping sand
dunes and doing all kinds of crazy stuff with this bronco rafter the 10 speed's all you need
in the f-150 raptor is a perfect example of that in addition you'll have a dana 44 up front as
well as a dana 50 in the back with upgraded half shafts up front and upgraded axles in the rear
this is all definitely necessary and i'm happy to say that there were also upgraded larger diameter
inner and outer tie rods which has been seen as a weak point on the regular road going broncos
so the bronco raptor definitely welcome addition to get some beefier parts in this thing the bronco
raptor engineering team also took a couple notes from the f-150 raptor team and they implemented
active exhaust on the bronco raptor this is pretty cool and obviously ford's in tune with the fact
that this is a six cylinder especially a smaller displacement three liter six cylinder at that
so to give it a more throaty sound you can expect equal length exhaust as well as those modes
to give it a more throaty and aggressive exhaust note before we move on to the interior i do want
to mention the bronco raptor does have a fully boxed steel frame for additional durability
and longevity as well as 13 inches of front suspension travel and 14 inches of rear
suspension travel it's definitely apparent that if you're looking to buy a bronco raptor it's
almost mandatory that you take this thing off-road because that's what it's built for
for 2022 the bronco raptor is going to come in a ton of awesome vibrant colors as well as some
aggressive neutral tone ones you can check it out on area 51 cactus gray code orange
cyber orange eruption green hot pepper red metallic iconic silver oxford white
shadow black and velocity blue moving on to the interior the biggest thing to talk about is the
fully digital 12 inch gauge cluster that you're going to see in place of the existing kind of
three-quarter digital and half analog with the speedometer being analog but it's fully
digital which is awesome to see as well as an additional goat mode this is exciting baja mode
the biggest difference with baja mode is that it actually features an anti-lag turbo calibration
which keeps boost up when you're trying to jump those sand dunes at highway speeds pretty cool
last but certainly not least with the bronco raptor you're going to be able to see
paddle shifters as well it's going to complement the 10r80 transmission and you're going to be able
to get exactly what gear you want to be in at the time you push that button that's about all we know
on the bronco raptor so far so be sure to stay tuned as we roll out new parts and content on the
regular bronco as well as the bronco raptor right here at steeda.com as well as our youtube channel
shifting focus back to the mustang we now have some photos of what dark matter gray
is going to look like on the 2022 mustang courtesy of lightning ecoboost on mustang
6g if you check out these photos i believe dark matter gray is replacing magnetic on the mustang
so this is something a little different it has a little bit less flake in there a little bit
less metallic from what we're used to on magnetic has more of that flat look if you
know what i mean and it has that kind of ghost aggressive i i'm really a big fan of it and
check it out for yourself comment below and let us know your thoughts last but certainly
not least we finally have some s650 video footage of the car actually rolling around on the streets
a big thanks to mustang 7g for posting this up as well as kgp photography for grabbing the footage
now diving in first things first we see a bullet steering wheel as well as a stick shift on the car
in the video you zoom up and you can see very clearly it has that bullet steering wheel this
totally makes sense they use partspins cars and they kind of mix and match parts together as they
roll these out on the streets for photographers to grab content of now the exhaust note that's really
what i want to zero in on here does it sound like a coyote to you we've heard bullets we've heard
mach ones we've heard gts we've heard the coyote since 2011. doesn't a hundred percent sound like
one what do you guys think it is comment below because we really want to hear what your thoughts
are is it a hybrid is it's a smaller displacement is it the larger displacement push rod godzilla
who knows but again we're not 100 sure so comment below and let us know your thoughts
that wraps things up for this video everything from the bronco raptors to the to the new dark
matter gray as well as s650 rolling footage it's gonna be an exciting 2022 for these new vehicles
rolling out on the streets from ford go ahead and comment below let us know your thoughts like
