While Ford Australia has yet to officially announce the Chinese-made model, a ‘Coming Soon’ page featuring an image of the Bronco New Energy went live today on the website for Metro Ford in Queensland, confirming the new SUV for Australia. Ford Australia wouldn't confirm the new model for Australia when contacted by CarExpert. “The Bronco New Energy is an exciting addition to the global Ford line-up, adding a new energy drivetrain to one of the world’s most iconic nameplates. Ford Australia is always evaluating options to expand our line-up for customers, but we have no news to share about future products at this time,” a previous Ford Australia statement said.
