Are we looking at the first shots of a mule for the upcoming Ford Bronco? Sources inside the blue oval wouldn’t outright confirm, but hinted as much with these exclusive shots.

Underneath this Everest body should be the underpinnings of the Bronco, spotted testing with prototypes of the new Ranger pickup (Raptor, Wildtrak and Regular crew) that will share a number of components with the midsize SUV. 

The Bronco name will return after a 20-plus-year hiatus on a new truck-based SUV that will be built in Michigan. It’s expected to compete with the Jeep Wrangler and Toyota 4Runner. Power will likely come from turbocharged four- and six-cylinder engines, though diesel and hybrid variants are possible.

The MPMC Media Trade Conference is a unique event that brings editors and reporters from all over the world together with racing and performance parts and accessories manufacturers.

Exhibitor applications for the 2018 Motorsports Parts Manufacturers Council (MPMC) Media Trade Conference are open now through September 5, 2017. Only 100 exhibitor spots are available, and participants will be chosen using a random number lottery system.

The 2018 MPMC Media Trade Conference—to be held January 23–25, at the Embassy Suites Orange County Airport North in Santa Ana, California—is a unique event that brings editors and reporters from all over the world together with racing and performance parts and accessories manufacturers. Unlike a traditional trade show, where exhibitors meet with attendees on the show floor, the Media Trade Conference consists of individual, private, one-on-one interviews between media representatives and manufacturers. The event consistently serves as one of the largest platforms for manufacturers in the motorsports segment to promote their product lines while creating lasting relationships with the media.

Not an MPMC member but want to exhibit in the 2018 event? Join today. MPMC members must manufacture parts used in sanctioned motorsports events, and all applications for membership are subject to review.

Manufacturers who submitted an application but were not selected for the 2017 event are automatically guaranteed a spot in the 2018 event if they submit a new application by the September 5, 2017, deadline. Exhibitor selection is available only for MPMC-member companies.

Media Registration will open in October 2017. For media inquiries, contact Della Domingo at dellad@sema.org or 909-978-6723.

For general or exhibitor inquiries, contact Lindsay Bianco at lindsayb@sema.org or 909-978-6692.
