Is there a 2025 Bronco Sport?
Yes, there is a 2025 Bronco Sport
For 2025, the Bronco Sport comes with some new features to bring the lineup to a more modern market. No matter the trim, you can look for a new 13.2-inch infotainment screen with upgraded SYNC 4. This makes it more modern and, in the vehicle market, more desirable. This model also now comes with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster.
There was also a Sasquatch sighting this year, with the Sasquatch package being added to the Bronco Sport. This is available on the Outer Banks and Badlands trims. This adds new steel bumpers with a bull bar on the front and two recovery hooks on the back. Also coming with steel skid plates and slightly more ground clearance, a knobbier set of 29-inch all-terrain tires, and the Badlands adds Bilstein rear dampers.
How much will the 2025 Bronco Sport cost?
The Bronco Sport starts at $30,995.
The Bronco Sport lineup is fairly tight-knit, coming with 4 trims to pick from. The starting trim is the Big Bend, coming in with a starting price of $30,995, Heritage starting at $33,995, Outer Banks starting at $36,495, and the Badlands starting at $40,115.
Of these trims, the one that the experts favor the most is the Badlands. This is because it is “the most capable off-road” being that it comes with a “lifted suspension and upgraded dampers for tackling rugged terrain”, as stated by Car and Driver.
Some other features that you can find on the Badlands are all-terrain tires, wrapped around 17-inch matte black wheels. When on the trails, you have access to advanced 4x4, Ford Trail Control that comes with one pedal driving, able to pick between 7 G.O.A.T modes.
These modes are made for the most extreme conditions. The modes you can find are Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, Sand, Mud/Ruts, and Rock Crawl. All of these modes are aimed at giving you the best experience possible, no matter what you’re doing.
