As you can see, while the Volvo gets slightly better gas mileage on the highway, the situation is reversed for city driving. It will depend on the type of driving you do as to which SUV works better for your needs, but either way, you’ll have an efficient daily driver for all your St Louis travels. Plus, with the Bronco Sport’s off-roading chops, you might develop a preference for the Ford!
If you want to head off the beaten path near Fenton or Arnold, you need an SUV with the off-roading performance to give you the confidence and thrills you deserve. With five selectable G.O.A.T.
