Here's what's under the hood.

With off-roading becoming one of the most popular automotive trends of the decade, automakers are stepping up to fill some rather big boots. Fordlast year to compete with the likes of the Jeep Wrangler, and while it has some nifty party tricks for the trail, the Wrangler Rubicon holds the crown when traveling off the beaten path. But that may soon change.

This particular engine is unique to the Raptor variant of the Bronco, as other trims in the nameplate are offered with either the less powerful 2.3-liter inline-four cylinder or 2.7-liter V6 engines. Ford says this configuration will produce more than 400 horsepower , though the final numbers are still being worked out.

Baja Mode also borrows a feature straight from the Ford GT race car to seriously crank up the performance. Called “anti-lag,” the feature keeps the Bronco’s onboard turbos spinning so as to minimize any loss in boost pressure that typically happens when letting off the throttle. When in Baja mode, the Bronco will not close its throttle body when the driver takes their foot off of the accelerator pedal. Instead, it forces the butterfly valve wide-open while shutting off fuel and spark, allowing the turbochargers’ compressor wheels to maintain rotational speed and have less lag when stepping back onto the throttle. This type of performance driving aid is ideal for cornering, or in the Bronco Raptor’s case, maintaining contact with the ground over bumps at high speeds.
