2026 Ford Bronco Sport debuts with new colors, 5G modem, and package revisions

Key figure

2026

What Happened

Exterior updates for the 2026 Bronco Sport include new Orange Fury Metallic Tri-Coat and Space White Metallic colors. Door handles on the Outer Banks trim are now black molded-in-color instead of body color. Fender tie-downs become a standalone option with the Black Diamond Off-Road and Sasquatch packages, while the front brush guard with recovery hooks is removed from the Sasquatch Badlands Package. Adjustable flood lights are no longer standard on the liftgate, and rain-sensing wipers are dropped from Outer Banks. A Rear Recovery Kit is now available on Big Bend.

Inside, the 8-inch cluster display becomes standard on Big Bend, Heritage, and Outer Banks, replacing the previous 12.3-inch display. The wireless charging pad and universal garage door opener are removed from all trims. The front-row center console grab handle is removed from Badlands and all packages. On the tech side, a 5G modem and the Ford Connectivity Package (one year included) are now standard on all models, while SiriusXM 360L with a three-year plan is optional. A 7-year Ford Connectivity Package is available for purchase.

Notable Package and Option Changes
  • Bronze Package now available on Big Bend; Bronze + Black Diamond Off-Road Package optional on Big Bend.
  • Rear Recovery Kit (47P) includes black rear bumper with steel plate and two D-ring hooks.
  • Black Diamond Off-Road Package loses cargo mat, cargo management system, fender tie-downs, and rear D-ring hooks.
  • New dealer-installed options include Base Lighting Package, Console Safe, GB-40 jump starter, tool kit, vented wheel arch moldings, and windshield sunscreen.

Why this matters

The changes reflect Ford's ongoing refinement of the Bronco Sport lineup for the new model year, balancing new features with removals.
