The Ford Bronco has had a storied reputation since the 1960s, and has been popular in all iterations. The iconic SUV goes into its fourth production year for 2025—since it already experienced a big refresh in 2024, there are only minor changes in the coming year. Let’s dig into the details.
Key Takeaways:
- The 2025 model is next in the sixth Bronco generation (which started in 2021.)
- There are no new big changes for the 2025 model.
- There’s rumor of a Bronco hybrid in the coming model years!
Expectations for 2025
As of this writing, much of what made up the 2024 Bronco’s trims and configurations has carried over for 2025.
The Bronco has been in a friendly rivalry with the Jeep Wrangler for a while. Since the Jeep Wrangler 4xe has made its introduction to the marketplace and is quite popular, we suspect a Bronco hybrid is on the way in 2026 or 2027. Bronco aficionados have longed for a hybrid model for a while—we’ll certainly keep you posted!
Under the Hood
The Bronco’s engines give you plenty of options in regard to what kind of power you want. A turbocharged 2.3-liter I-4 can be found in the Big Bend (base) model, generating 275 ponies and 300 lb-ft of torque on regular gas or 300 horsepower and 325 lb-ft of torque on high octane. A 7-speed manual or 10-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive are featured with this engine.
A twin-turbocharged 2.7-liter V-6 (with automatic transmission only) is available in higher trims—it cranks out 315 horses and 410 lb-ft of torque on regular gas—premium fuel brings those numbers up to 330 horsepower and 415 lb-ft torque.
Interiors and Tech Wizardry
The 2025 Bronco is nearly identical to last year’s model in size. There's a minute difference in passenger space between the Bronco, two- and four-door models; however, the four-door model is known to have more space for cargo. Style and comfort-wise, the interior remains the same.
Let’s talk tech. The Bronco’s infotainment touchscreen in 2024 trims was given a size increase—12.0-inches is now standard even for the Big Bend. Ford's SYNC user interface with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are featured, while trail maps and pre-wired auxiliary switches also remain. An optional 360-degree camera and a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen stereo system is standard in higher trims.
The Bronco and Ford’s Safety Standards
Ford always places a high priority on safety, and the new Bronco reflects this. Features like its Co-Pilot360 suite, with driver assist and active safety systems (hill-start assist, front automatic emergency braking, and automatic high-beams) will keep all occupants safe on the go.
