Ford Shows Rugged Ranger And Broncos At SEMA

The SEMA Show is underway and Ford Performance Parts is showing an assortment of modified trucks and SUVs. However, these aren’t one-off models as they have packages that you’ll be able to buy online or at dealerships.

Starting with the Bronco, there’s an ORV package that is billed as a “turn-key solution” for transforming the model into a rugged off-roader. It includes a Bilstein suspension with a 2-inch (51 mm) lift as well as 17-inch white wheels wrapped in 35-inch tires. They’re joined by a “unique software calibration” for the 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine.

The package is designed for Base, Big Bend, Black Diamond, and Outer Banks Broncos with the aforementioned engine. Customers will also be able to order options such as an ARB jack, an air compressor, and a high-clearance cat-back exhaust.

Sticking with the Bronco, the Ford Accessory Personalization package adds a splash of fun as the model has been equipped with retro-inspired graphics, tubular doors, an open-air Bimini roof, and painted fender flares with a matching grille.

Those aren’t the only changes as the model has been outfitted with the aforementioned suspension that features a 2-inch (51 mm) lift. We can also see auxiliary lights and a roof rack with a surfboard attachment.

The Bronco Sport Blue Free Wheeling is exactly what the name suggests as it’s a blue version of the Bronco Sport Free Wheeling Edition. Instead of the traditional red, orange, and yellow stripes there are varying shades of blue.

Besides the side graphics, there are blue accents on the grille and wheels. The changes continue inside with blue trim and multi-colored cloth seats. Ford said the model shows the “dramatic changes … owners can make to their vehicles via the Accessory Personalization program.”

On the truck side, there’s an ORV package for 2024 Ranger XLTs and Lariats equipped with four-wheel drive. It adds an ARB overland suspension kit as well as beefy ARB bumpers. The model can also be outfitted with options such as SOLIS lights, an onboard air compressor, and a refrigerator/freezer.

Note: The packages are technically concepts at this point as some details or contents may change

Gearhead Nirvana: We Visit Porsche’s Atlanta Workshop Where Classics Get Reborn

Image
Maintaining any car is a duty that different owners approach in vastly different ways. For some, a few zip ties and a rattle can of spray paint is good enough. Far on the other end of the spectrum are owners like the ones who take their car to the Porsche Classic Center in Atlanta. During our trip there to see the new Macan EV in virtual reality , we had the opportunity to tour the Classic Center as it was deep in the midst of multiple repair and restoration projects.  To the owners of these cars and to the Porsche brand itself, what these mechanics, technicians, upholsterers, and painters are preserving is heritage. The center’s mantra “As good as new. But with even more character” is on display for anyone who visits the site.

The New Honda Prelude Will Be A Global Model, But It Won’t Be A Toyota GR 86

Image
Last month, Honda rolled out the red carpet for the the hybrid Prelude Concept , heralding the comeback of a historic name in the motoring world. Now, this car has been given the green light as a global model, set to cater to both right- and left-hand drive markets. However, it might not quite rev up to be the full-throttle sports car many enthusiasts were anticipating Despite being labeled a concept by Honda, the car presented at the Japan Mobility Show (JMS) looked quite production-ready. And if we know anything about Honda, they have a knack for unveiling thinly-disguised production cars as concepts. Take the last two Civics, for example. The 10th-gen Civic Concept was more or less the Civic coupe of that generation with a more aggressive stance and altered bumpers, while the 11th-gen Civic Prototype was virtually the same sedan that made it to production.

As Good As New Porsche 918 Spyder With Just 43 Miles Could Fetch $2 Million

Image
This Porsche 918 has been kept in a climate-controlled storage facility ever since it was delivered. The car is one of just four Hong Kong-spec 918s in existence. Driving the hypercar is a 4.6-liter V8 hybrid powertrain with 887 hp. A 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder that has never been registered will be available at a Hong Kong auction running from April 2-5 and is expected to sell for between $1.5 million and $2 million. The 918 Spyder launched as one of the ‘hypercar holy trinity’ alongside the Ferrari LaFerrari and McLaren P1. While there are many low-mileage examples out there, few are thought to have been driven less than this one. Over the past decade, it has been driven less than 70 km (43 miles) and has been owned by a single person in Hong Kong. It has also never been registered for road use. The listing doesn’t specify how the car has racked up 70 km without being registered. Read: This Porsche 918 Is One Of Just 2 With A Gulf Oil Livery Nevertheless, this car i...
