As others have said, this is incredibly misleading. Saleen is a performance company, so by calling something a "Saleen Performance" model, it would imply that that model has upgraded engine and drivetrain components that are reminiscent of the Saleen brand promise. Perhaps intercoolers, air flow control, performance programming, etc. None of this exists. And while companies like Saleen also make/sell parts purely for aesthetic reasons, I don't believe there's a single Saleen part on this Bronco Sport. It's the same as if I had Rousch physically install some Rough Country LED lights and a WeatherTech bed cover on an F-150 and then market it as a "Rousch Performance F-150." Umm, no.

At the end of the day Saleen Speedlab built it. Daughter of Steve, Molly Saleen. so there's the facts. Subscribe so you don't miss our trip to Saleen as we go to test drive the cars with Steve.

is that a rough country nudge bar ? i haven’t seen it with a led light bar before, it looks better that way rather than with the 4 spotlights

Yes it is l, but we started using the Saleen nudge bars now. They have a nicer fit. Appreciate the feedback on the lights!

any huge hit in mpg with the lift and swap of tires?

Not really. This was a brand new vehicle and driving conservatively around Austin and to Pace Bend Park I was around the 20mpg.

did this also have a recall for engine fires?

Yes the Recall is for 2021 to 2023 Bronco Sport equipped with the 1.5L engine.

B stands for Bronco

why aren't you using a SALEEN PUSH BAR?

@LeifAutoGroup

Жыл бұрын

At the time of this build their push bar was not available.

So what parts were added specifically to make this a “Saleen” Bronco Sport. As far as I know, Saleen doesn’t make parts for Bronco Sports. I could be wrong but I’ve never personally seen anything like that.

They are built by Saleen Speed Lab. Still part of the Saleen family, they specialize in aftermarket accessories and much more. I need to correct myself, the terminology for this sport is “Leif Johnson Specialty Vehicle” or LJSV not “Saleen Performance Bronco Sport”. I hope I was able to answer your question!

First, I would like to extend an apology about the video being clickbait, that was not my intention. Moving forward I will do a better job. I also know the internet has a varying understanding of the world "built". To some people if a Viper isn't built by Calvo Motorsports to have 1,300 HP its not a build, yet to others a set of coilovers, intake and an exhaust is a build. In this very specific case, this Bronco was handled by Saleen Performance and they added all the aftermarket accessories. To some this may be built, to others not so much...
