In recent years, the electric vehicle wave has not only swept the passenger car market but has also brought the rugged "boxy" SUV into the electric era. Two giants, Ford and BYD, have successively launched their flagship models – the 2026 Ford Bronco and the 2025 Formula Leopard Titanium 7. Both are large electric SUVs, yet they exhibit distinctly different product philosophies. Today, we will conduct a comprehensive comparative analysis from multiple dimensions, including price, design, configuration, intelligence, and applicable scenarios, to see which "electric box" is more suitable for you.
Price is the first hurdle for consumer decision-making. The Formula Leopard Titanium 7 clearly follows a high-cost-performance route, with a suggested retail price range of 179,800-219,800 yuan. Its starting price is more accessible, targeting family users who value practicality and value.
The Ford Bronco, on the other hand, is positioned at a higher end, with a suggested retail price range of 229,800-282,800 yuan. Behind the higher price tag are its dual power options (pure electric and extended range), more prominent off-road capabilities, and Ford's tough off-road heritage, offering a choice for users with ample budgets who seek a versatile "city and off-road" experience.
Both vehicles adopt the iconic boxy shape, but their design languages are distinctly different.
Ford Bronco
The Ford Bronco perfectly embodies "classic reinvention." It inherits the rugged silhouette of the gasoline-powered Bronco but is reborn through electrification. The circular headlights are replaced with digital headlights and an illuminated "BRONCO" letter grille, forming a continuous dynamic light strip. This retains the hardcore character while adding a touch of fashion and approachability. Classic elements such as the externally mounted spare tire and side-opening tailgate are retained, and the LED light strip on the spare tire cover echoes the front design, completing the stylistic evolution from pure off-road to stylish family use.
Formula Leopard Titanium 7
showcases a more forward-thinking "interstellar ark" design concept. The narrow, closed front grille, split headlamps, and two-tone bumper create a rugged yet technologically advanced visual effect. The side lines are sharp, and the externally mounted "small backpack" and rounded rectangular taillights at the rear are simple and clean. The Titanium 7 also offers seven color options and various customization schemes, allowing for greater personalization.
Both vehicles are positioned as mid-to-large 5-seater SUVs, and spaciousness is a common advantage, but they differ in their focus.
Dimensions and Space
The FORD BRONCO has body dimensions of 5025/1960/1825mm and a wheelbase of 2950mm, with slightly superior length and wheelbase. Its highlight is that the rear seats can be folded flat with one touch to form a 2-meter "large bed," and it has a 497L trunk capacity. The pure electric version also has an additional 160L front trunk. The Formula Leopard Titanium 7 has dimensions of 4999/1995/1865mm and a wheelbase of 2920mm. Its advantage lies in its high "space utilization rate" of 70.9%, and the boxy shape provides excellent headroom. The regular trunk capacity is as high as 970L, and it can be expanded to 1880L when the second row is folded down, offering extremely strong storage capacity.
Off-Road Capability
This is the most significant difference in their positioning. The FORD BRONCO has a 30° approach angle, a 32° departure angle, a 220mm minimum ground clearance (unladen), and a 600mm maximum wading depth. The hardware parameters indicate that it has a solid off-road foundation, balancing urban and light off-road scenarios. The Formula Leopard Titanium 7 is more focused on city driving, with approach and departure angles of 24° and 25°, respectively. Specific ground clearance and wading depth data are not available, clearly indicating a focus on urban comfort.
Both vehicles strive to create a technological atmosphere in their interiors, but they differ in style and functional emphasis.
FORD BRONCO
The interior blends a rugged aesthetic with technological elements, featuring a 15.6-inch 2.5K floating central control screen and an 8.8-inch full LCD instrument panel. The intelligent cockpit is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8255 chip, supporting four-zone voice recognition, continuous conversation, facial recognition, in-car KTV, and DeepSeek AI assistant integration, providing a smooth interactive experience. For outdoor scenarios, it also offers unique features such as a 7.5L hot and cold refrigerator and a modular multi-functional tailgate with an integrated induction cooktop.
Formula Leopard Titanium 7
The interior design is more avant-garde, featuring a double-layered, wrap-around floating center console. Its intelligent cockpit emphasizes "7-screen linkage," including a large central control screen, LCD instrument panel, extra-large W-HUD, rotary control screen, rear control screen, and an optional rear entertainment screen, meeting diverse entertainment needs for the whole family. Configuration includes a 4.5L in-car refrigerator, and high-end models feature a 20-speaker sound system (including driver's headrest speakers), highlighting luxury and comfort.
The powertrain system is the core difference in the technical approach of the two vehicles.
FORD BRONCO: Offers both pure electric and extended-range power options, providing greater flexibility. The extended-range version is equipped with a 1.5T range extender, with a combined power of 310kW, 0-100km/h acceleration in 5.8 seconds, a CLTC pure electric range of 220km, and a combined range of 1220km, with a fuel consumption of 7.25L/100km in low-battery mode, completely eliminating range anxiety. The pure electric version has a combined power of 332kW, 0-100km/h acceleration in 5.3 seconds, and is equipped with a 105.4kWh battery, providing a CLTC range of 650km. All models support fast charging and 6.6kW external power discharge.
Formula Leopard Titanium 7: Equipped with BYD's new generation DM plug-in hybrid system. The four-wheel-drive version has a total motor power of 360kW, achieving 0-100km/h acceleration in just 4.5 seconds, demonstrating powerful performance. Depending on the configuration, the CLTC pure electric range offers multiple options of 135km, 190km, and 200km. Combined with a large 60L fuel tank, the comprehensive range easily exceeds 1300km. It also features the Yunlian-C intelligent damping body control system, ground pre-scanning, iCCT intelligent comfort control, and anti-motion sickness mode, aiming to maximize driving comfort on the road.
In terms of intelligent driving assistance, both vehicles have reached mainstream industry levels.

One of its outstanding safety features is the high-speed tire blowout assistance and stability control system, which the official claims can support stable stopping after a tire blowout at a speed of 140km/h.
After a comprehensive comparison, the characteristics of the two vehicles are very clear:
Choose the FORD BRONCO if: you have a relatively sufficient budget and pursue an "all-rounder" experience. You want both the comfort and intelligence of city commuting and the fun of light off-road exploration on weekends. Its dual-power system, inherited hardcore off-road genes, and exclusive configurations for outdoor scenarios (such as the "large bed" mode and tailgate induction cooker) make it a true "life expander."
Choose the Formula Leopard Titanium 7 if: your family is your core focus, and you value ultimate cost-effectiveness, maximum space utilization, and riding comfort. Its excellent storage capacity, rich in-car entertainment ecosystem, leading plug-in hybrid range and energy consumption performance, and comfortable chassis technology precisely address all the pain points of urban travel and long-distance trips for large families, making it a powerful "family travel flagship."
The arrival of the Ford Bronco and the Formula Leopard Titanium 7 marks the beginning of an era of segmentation and refinement in the electric SUV market. There is no simple question of which is superior; instead, they represent different technological approaches and product philosophies, precisely targeting two core groups: off-road enthusiasts and practical family users. The ultimate choice for consumers is not about superiority, but about the ideal lifestyle they envision.
