The legendary Ford Bronco was arguably the most popular SUV on the road in the mid-1990s. Its 2021 model is backed up with cool retro styling, impressive off-road capabilities, and innovative features.

It’s a tough SUV customized to hit open roads. It’s the ideal vehicle for individuals who love off-roading because it’s loaded with technology and bold capabilities that suit any kind of adventure. 

The 2021 Bronco comes with durable waterproof surfaces that offer protection to cargo when the soft and hard rooftops are removed. Its convertible design, plus two and four-door body nature, pits Ford’s Branco rugged SUV against the famous Jeep Wrangler.

Chevrolet Trailblazer- $19,000

After being absent in the US since 2009, the Chevrolet Trailblazer is back and even better than before. This revamp comes after the success of the larger Blazer SUV reintroduced by Chevy last year.

The 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer is a crossover that fills the gap in the Chevy lineup between the tiny Chevy Trax and the larger Equinox. Although it shares some similarity with the Blazer in that it adopts some Camaro-like exterior cues for a uniquely aggressive appearance, it stands out from other subcompact crossovers because it offers an Activ trim level.
