Expect More From Ford: The 2025 Bronco Sport

It’s been a few years since the Ford Bronco triumphantly returned to its rightful place as one of the most popular SUVs. The Bronco is renowned for its unique styling, off-roading capabilities, and powertrains that range from economical to performance-oriented. Competing against the Jeep Wrangler, the Bronco has matched its competitors’ advantages pound for pound. The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport is what happens when the power and prestige of the Bronco are placed in a slightly smaller package. Versatile, quick, and agile, the 2025 Bronco Sport is the definitive proof that you can do more with less.

Performance for On and Off the Road

There’s a lot that’s changed in the world of the SUV since the original Bronco ceased production. It’s true that many drivers still utilize the SUV for the rough and tumble world of off-roading and to facilitate adventures, but the modern driver is multifaceted, and many are eager to take advantage of an SUV that has exceptional fuel economy and agile handling for the daily commute. The Ford Bronco Sport caters to both of these types of drivers by offering two unique powertrains, one geared for thrilling adventure and the other for easily getting around town.

The Ford Bronco Sport shares the same platform as the Ford Escape, which was one of the first vehicles to demonstrate the viability of scaled-down SUVs during the early years of the boom period. Besides sharing the same platform, the Bronco Sport uses the same standard powertrain, consisting of a 1.5L three-cylinder engine producing 181 hp. While only firing on three cylinders, the base engine is capable of light towing duties with a maximum rating of 2,200 lbs.

If you’re looking for more in terms of performance and capability, the Bronco Sport can also be equipped with a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine that packs a punch with 250 hp. Both engines have an eight-speed automatic transmission, and AWD is the standard drivetrain. The 2.0L, which provides a notable increase in performance, also improves the towing capacity by allowing a 2,700 lb tow rating.

With two exceptional powertrains and its standard AWD, the Ford Bronco Sport is off-road-ready and can be used for many different purposes. Capability and versatility have long been hallmarks of the Ford brand, and both coexist in the 2025 Ford Bronco Sport.

Bold Stylings for 2025

The 2025 Bronco Sport is poised and ready to allow you to seek out adventure, regardless of where your preferred destination might be, and provides you with a discernible amount of style based on its multitude of trim levels. Drivers who enjoy the exterior design of the new incarnation of the Ford Bronco will find it on the Big Bend, Outer Banks, and Badlands trims. The modern Bronco retains many of the unique stylings that the vehicle was known for in its heyday while also having that modern touch that allows it to stand apart from many other SUVs in its class.

Fans of the previous incarnation of the Bronco and those nostalgic for the yesteryear designs will be pleased to know that two trims will embrace the classic Bronco look that was prominent in its heyday. The Free Wheeling version of the Bronco features multi-colored stripes that make for an eye-catching appearance. Inside and out, the Free Wheeling is waiting for you to make a first impression on your next adventure. If you’re looking to turn back the hands of time and take full advantage of what the modern Bronco has to offer, the Heritage edition is what you need. Taking styling cues from the original Bronco that debuted in 1966, the Heritage features a two-toned color scheme and front grille that looks like it rolled off the assembly line several years ago.

Interior & Technology

The Ford Bronco has always had a unique exterior design and performance that can cross multiple terrains. These are both noble attributes, and when one gets behind the wheel, it’s easy to see that Ford has placed a considerable amount of emphasis on providing their drivers a means to be comfortable and have access to a brand range of tech-savvy features. The Bronco Sport has an elevated seating position, giving the driver increased visibility on the road.

Like many modern SUVs, the interior of the Ford Bronco Sport is anchored by the infotainment screen, and Ford has packed in a wide array of standard items that allow drivers to have an intuitive and tech-savvy experience. All versions of the Ford Bronco Sport come with a generously sized 13.2-inch infotainment screen. The infotainment screen is equipped with Sync 4, Ford’s intuitive software suite that receives over-the-air updates, ensuring that the latest version is always at your fingertips. Besides having Sync 4, the Bronco Sport also uses wireless connectivity to Apple and Android products and in-dash navigation, which is ideal for adventurers and commuters.

Ford seized the initiative and provided the Bronco Sport with an ergonomic and practical layout, providing a comfortable driving experience with plenty of room. The interior design of the Bronco Sport, already exceptionally well designed, has also been outfitted with more technological attributes than the competition, making every moment behind the wheel thoroughly enjoyable.

Safety & Driving Assistance Features

With its aptitude for exceptional performance and interior that balances comfort and technology, the Ford Bronco Sport is poised and ready to make a remarkable impact on the 2025 model year. Besides the attributes we’ve already covered, Ford has also put a great deal of effort into providing a safe vehicle that gives drivers the peace of mind they crave when on the road. Having a safe and sustainable vehicle is the most important part of the selection process, so we’re saving these details for last. The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport has many standard items across all trims that are a part of the Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+ suite, ensuring drivers feel safe at all times.

Pre-Collision Assist: Pre-collision assist works in conjunction with Automatic Emergency Braking to add additional protection in the event of a potential collision. Sensors and radar technology can detect objects in your path and issue an alert. The vehicle’s braking system will be engaged if emergency maneuvers aren’t enacted in time.

Blind Spot Information System: Visibility is a fundamental aspect of safe driving, but unfortunately, our eyes can’t be everywhere at once. The Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert grants you additional oversight when you’re changing lanes to help you avoid a potential collision.

Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go and Lane Catering Technology: Designed for highway driving, Adaptive Cruise Control monitors traffic patterns and adjusts your vehicle’s speed to ensure you follow at a safe distance, thus preserving reaction time.

Available in the 2025 Bronco Sport, you can get Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0. This suite adds to the already impressive Co-Pilot Assist+ package. If you live in a residential area, Reverse Braking Assist is imperative to providing a safe environment for you and others. Alerting you to what pedestrians and vehicles are behind you at any given time, you’ll have oversight when and where it matters most. This package also includes a 360-degree Camera with Split View and Speed Sign Recognition.

It’s also worth mentioning that the 2025 Ford Bronco Sport was also awarded a five-star safety rating from the NHTSA in collision testing. With favorable crash-test results and a host of standard safety features, there’s no denying that Ford is bringing more peace of mind to the public than ever before.

The Perfect SUV has Arrived

As the SUV continues to climb in popularity and be the most popular choice among consumers, Ford has taken great strides to remain at the very top of the mountain. The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport offers exceptional and economical performance, a comfortable interior with tech-savvy items, and a host of standard safety features to provide you with the peace of mind you deserve.
