AEV had all the hardware ready, Ford had to know it was coming.

Heck, AEV has 37" package so even if Ford response it just packaging for the Wrangler to respond. Ford being IS on all corners makes it difficult.

Get things out of the factory with proper build (pre-Chip shortage)is a big problem for Ford.
Hence why Ford make the least Automotive profits among the Legacy Michigan 3 OEM’s.

Apparently Ford has a Bronco on 37 inch tires in development right now, internally called the Warthog. It will be interesting to see just how quick they respond.

Solid axle is basically infinite, or at least to a practical tipping moments. IFS has to have dynamic redesign.

My opinion would be that majority of buyers will not actually care about who has the best on paper specs. Wrangler is better offroader as it will have better articulation / less 3wheel tottering and has better visibility.

But it is the other characteristics of the vehicles that will make the difference. Do you like something that feels bigger and looks blocky = Bronco. Likely more comfortable front seats = bronco. Open air hardtop design = Bronco. Do you have to have that new shiny thing = bronco

I think there is space for both the wrangler and bronco to be successful. No doubt the bronco will make jeep better.
