This is an independent design study by Samirs Customs that is neither related to nor endorsed by Ford.
While there’s essentially only one other vehicle that directly competes with the Ford Bronco, the concept of an off-road SUV is not all that uncommon. That’s likely why digital artist Samirs Customs decided to dial the weirdness up to 11 by turning it into a cab-forward off-road van.
Sometimes called a “forward control” vehicle, this body style was more popular in the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s, but largely fell out of style in applications other than commercial trucks.

Samirs Customs’ rendering, called the BroncoVan, moves the greenhouse and mirrors all the way forward, placing the engine under the driver and shortening the hood as a result. The Bronco was also digitally fitted with new wheels and tires, as well as a roof rack, light bars, and new running boards.
The wheelbase also looks to have been extended to now include four rows of seating, but we’re not entirely sure how you’d get into the front row without any doors. Perhaps it’s the opposite of how one would access the rear seats in a traditional three-row SUV, but that seems like a bit of an inconvenience. Nevertheless, this vehicle is entirely fictional, so in the end it doesn’t really matter.
On top of that, Samirs Customs rendered his creation in multiple different color schemes, including all black, yellow and black, white with sunset graphics, black with sunset graphics, red and white two-tone, and grey and white two-tone with a matching camper, among many others.
