How does it compare in size to the 4-door Wrangler?

Not exactly addressed in this C&D story, but some good comparisons on various dimensions and specs:

Ha yeah that was great. I remember watching their review of the defender and they praised the on road manners. Honestly that’s probably a better choice than the bronco but it just doesn’t look as cool (IMO) and no removable roof. In theory a defender costs more but in the crazy Covid era who knows.

One our road trip to Nashville/Memphis a few months ago, I parked behind new Bronco (dealer plates on it) It became a few hour conversation with my wife. A few hours later we walked by a Bronco Sport. She noticed quickly how much smaller the "Sport" is.
Her first comment was "That's not a Bronco, and it certainly isn't sporty" . It was seriously one of those moments where if I had a drink in my mouth, it would have been spewing out of my nostrils. (some content, when my wife lived in the Denver CO area, she owned a first generation Bronco with "3 on the tree" and manual hubs for 4x4) This was well before I knew her. I can get in and out of a 4 door Bronco okay, not great, but better than I do with a Wrangler. I really want to try out a 2 door to see if it is any easier for me to own. I search locally about every 2 weeks, still no 2 doors.

the Bronco Sport has the dumbest rear window wiper I've ever seen. It cleans about 1/4 of the window, at best
