Teased: A New Ford Bronco Concept Is Coming

Recently, Ford raised the possibility of a very special Ford Bronco concept that could pay homage to the classic patrol and rescue Broncos of years past, tipping their hand in a sense with their use of the phrase "Might As Well Have The Best." That's the official slogan of Filson, a premium American outfitter, and it points to the possibility that the concept will be born out of a partnership with that company. Now, we've got a fresh batch of additional Filson Bronco teaser images courtesy of the official Ford Bronco Instagram page, and this time, we get a sneak peek at the exterior of the vehicle. The photo of the vehicle's exterior leaves a lot to the imagination, but we can see that it's based on the four-door Bronco, and it wears matte black fender flare extensions and beadlocking wheels with bright machined-finish beadlock rings.

We'd Love To Get Pulled Over By This C8 Corvette Cop Car

Meanwhile in Dubai, the police have become famous for its seemingly growing fleet of supercars. Even in the US, there's the occasional Ford Mustang with a set of rollers on its roof. So, what all-American sports car/muscle car could come next? Perhaps the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. These new renderings created by graphic artist Aksyonov Nikita, via Behance, show a possible future involving a C8 Corvette Police Interceptor. Some familiar must-have police modifications are obvious, such as the light bar, spotlight, and bigger steel wheels.

550-HP Lexus J201 Concept Is An Off-Road Enthusiast's Dream Chunky off-road rubber and a raised air intake are just two of the many upgrades.

The Lexus LX 570 has been around for over 10 years in its current basic form, which is an age in modern automotive terms. Although Lexus has tried to keep the big SUV fresh with a host of updates, most recently a limited edition LX Inspiration Series, there's no denying that a replacement is due. Hopefully, this isn't too far off. Until that happens, Lexus has just unveiled something else to keep us intrigued: the J201 Concept. It's essentially a beefed-up, raised version of the LX 570 which Lexus says has been assembled by overlanding experts Expedition Overland. The name 'J201' stems from the LX 570's internal chassis and platform code, URJ201.
