Introduction
The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport isn’t just wearing the Bronco badge — it earns it. Designed for drivers who seek adventure beyond the pavement, this compact SUV blends off-road toughness with everyday comfort.
Whether you’re carving trails through the woods, setting up camp by the lake, or heading into town, the Bronco Sport delivers a lifestyle-ready mix of rugged ability and smart practicality.
Real Off-Road Capability
Ford engineered the Bronco Sport to go places most small SUVs simply can’t.
All models come with standard all-wheel drive. Badlands models add a twin-clutch rear drive unit, letting the rear wheels split torque side to side for better grip over rocks, mud, and loose terrain.
Drivers can tailor their ride with the Terrain Management System, featuring G.O.A.T. Modes (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain). Settings like Sand, Mud/Ruts, Rock Crawl, and Slippery adjust throttle, transmission, and traction systems for the conditions ahead.
With 8.8 inches of ground clearance, available skid plates, and the ability to ford up to 23.6 inches of water, the Bronco Sport isn’t built for mall parking lots — it’s ready for the wild.
Power to Match the Terrain
The 2025 Bronco Sport comes with two turbocharged engine choices:
The Base, Big Bend, and Outer Banks trims feature a 1.5-litre three-cylinder engine that produces 181 horsepower.
The Badlands model boasts a 2.0-litre four-cylinder pushing 250 horsepower.
Both engines are mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission tuned for smooth delivery, whether you’re crawling over rocks or cruising on the highway.
The Badlands trim also features off-road suspension tuning and all-terrain tires, delivering serious capability right out of the factory.
Rugged Design with a Purpose
The Bronco Sport’s upright design isn’t just about looking tough — it’s about function.
Short front and rear overhangs help it climb obstacles without scraping. High-mounted headlights and squared-off fenders improve visibility and clearance. Standard roof rails are ready for tents, bikes, kayaks, and more.
At the rear, the cargo area features easy-to-clean rubberized flooring, available flip-up glass on the liftgate, and integrated LED floodlights — perfect for late-night camping setups.
Inside, available washable seat fabrics, MOLLE straps on seatbacks, and clever storage bins show that Ford built this cabin for people who live an active life, not just dream about it.
Comfort and Technology for the Everyday driver.
The Bronco Sport doesn’t sacrifice comfort to deliver ruggedness.
All models come with a SYNC 4 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Available features include a 10-speaker B&O audio system, wireless device charging, a heated steering wheel, and adaptive cruise control with lane centering.
Fold-flat rear seats and a wide cargo opening make it easy to load up camping gear, bikes, or dogs. Thanks to the tall roofline, even tall adults will find plenty of headroom in both rows.
Whether you’re commuting during the week or camping on the weekend, the Bronco Sport adapts easily.
What’s New for 2025?
For 2025, Ford will refine the Bronco Sport lineup with slight styling updates, new paint colours inspired by desert and mountain landscapes, and additional off-road accessory packages for buyers who want even more trail capability.
Ford has also improved ride comfort slightly by retuning the suspension for better on-road manners without sacrificing off-road toughness — a move that will make the Bronco Sport even easier to live with every day.
Final Verdict
The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport isn’t a watered-down SUV wearing an adventurous face. It’s designed for individuals who embrace the outdoors as soon as the weekend begins.
It combines the true spirit of the Bronco family with the size, technology, and everyday comfort that make it easy to live with Monday through Friday.
If your ideal getaway starts where the pavement ends, the Bronco Sport is ready when you are.
