The Ford Bronco arrives with impressive features that make it the perfect companion for summer adventures. This iconic off-road vehicle continues its legacy with thoughtful design elements and innovative technology for warm-weather exploration. Whether you’re planning a beach trip or mountain expedition or simply enjoying the longer days, the new Bronco offers capabilities that enhance every summer journey.
Removable Doors and Roof: Ultimate Open-Air Experience
One of the most celebrated features of the Bronco is its modular design with removable doors and roof panels. For summer enthusiasts, this means the freedom to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air to the fullest. The improved quick-release system allows owners to transform their vehicle in minutes rather than hours. The frameless doors are lighter than previous models, making them easier to remove and store. At the same time, the roof panels can be configured in multiple ways for partial or complete open-air driving.
Enhanced Water Fording Capabilities
Summer adventures often involve crossing streams or navigating beaches; the Ford Bronco excels in these environments. With an impressive water fording depth of up to 85 centimetres, depending on the trim, this vehicle allows you to explore waterways with confidence. The high-mounted air intakes and sealed electrical components protect against water damage. The Trail Sights on the front fenders serve as visual indicators for the vehicle’s corners and tie-down points for securing gear.
Advanced Trail Management System
The G.O.A.T. (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) Modes have specialized settings for summer conditions like Sand and Mud/Ruts. These driving modes automatically adjust throttle response, transmission shift points, and traction control systems to optimize performance on different surfaces. The new Trail Turn Assist feature reduces turning radius by applying braking to the inside rear wheel, making it easier to navigate tight corners on narrow summer trails.
Washout Interior and Marine-Grade Materials
Understanding that summer adventures can get messy, Ford has equipped the Ford Bronco with a washout interior featuring drain plugs in the floor, allowing owners to simply hose down the interior after a day at the beach or on muddy trails. The marine-grade vinyl seats resist mildew and can withstand exposure to water and UV rays, making them perfect for summer use. This year, Ford introduced new colour options designed to hide dust and dirt accumulated during outdoor activities.
Innovative Cargo Solutions
Summer activities require gear, and the Bronco offers clever storage solutions to accommodate everything from camping equipment to water toys. The rear cargo area features a slide-out work surface that can function as a prep station for meals or equipment maintenance. Integrated tie-down points throughout the vehicle secure items during off-road adventures. The available roof-mounted cargo carriers and tailgate table expand the utility for summer camping trips. With a payload capacity of up to 635 kilograms, depending on configuration, there’s plenty of room for all your summer essentials.
Trail-Ready Technology
The Ford Bronco features an upgraded 12-inch touchscreen with the latest SYNC system, including trail mapping capabilities. The available 360-degree camera system with off-road view allows drivers to see obstacles that would otherwise be hidden. The enhanced LED lighting system illuminates trails well after sunset for summer night adventures, and the available roof-mounted light bar option provides additional visibility for after-dark exploration.
Enhanced Cooling Systems
Recognizing the demands of summer driving, Ford has upgraded the cooling systems. The enhanced engine cooling package comes standard on most trims, ensuring optimal performance even during extended off-road sessions in high temperatures. The climate control system can cool the cabin more efficiently, with improved air distribution for front and rear passengers.
Outdoor-Ready Power Options
The Ford Bronco features an available 2.7-litre EcoBoost V6 engine that delivers 246 kilowatts of power and 563 Newton-metres of torque—plenty for towing summer toys like boats or trailers. For those needing even more capability, the available 3.0-litre EcoBoost V6 produces 298 kilowatts and 597 Newton-metres of torque. The 10-speed automatic transmission has been refined for smoother operation in various conditions, while the manual transmission option continues to appeal to driving enthusiasts.
Upgraded Off-Road Suspension
Summer trail conditions can vary widely, from loose sand to rocky paths. The upgraded suspension system features position-sensitive Bilstein dampers on select trims, providing a comfortable highway ride while delivering excellent articulation on rough terrain. The electronic disconnecting front sway bar allows for improved wheel travel when navigating challenging obstacles, automatically reconnecting when you return to higher speeds.
Integrated Accessories System
Ford has expanded the Bronco accessory offerings, focusing on summer activities. The integrated mounting points throughout the vehicle allow easy installation of accessories like bike racks, kayak carriers, and awnings. The new modular rack system accommodates various attachments, from roof-top tents to equipment carriers, without requiring permanent modifications to the vehicle.
