Is Ford making any changes to the 2024 Ford Bronco?
Great question! Although we know that Ford plans to roll out some new trim models and powertrains for its rugged off-roader, we’re still waiting to see whether any of them will arrive for the 2024 model year.
At Ford’s Capital Markets Day, the automaker announced to investors that it was planning a few future Bronco models: the Work, Premium, and Heritage+. While we don’t know much more than that, we can make a few educated guesses on what they’ll be like based on their names alone.
The Work will likely be a rugged SUV that’s light on creature comforts and priced accordingly. The Premium will be the opposite: a Bronco with a luxurious interior. The current Heritage models borrow styling cues from the original 1966 Bronco, with an Oxford White roof and trim. The upcoming Heritage+ models will likely add something to this styling package, perhaps more comfort and tech features.
Will there be a 2024 Ford Bronco Hybrid?
Although there is a plug-in hybrid Bronco powertrain in the works, it doesn’t look like it will be here until the 2025 model year! The Bronco PHEV will likely utilize Ford’s 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine and 10-speed modular hybrid transmission.
Until the Bronco plug-in hybrid arrives, the 2024 Bronco will likely offer the same engines as last year:
- Turbocharged 2.3L four-cylinder engine (300 horsepower, 325 lb-ft of torque) with seven-speed manual transmission or optional 10-speed automatic transmission
- Optional turbo 2.7L V6 (330 hp, 415 lb-ft) with 10-speed automatic
- Raptor-specific turbo 3.0L V6 (418 hp, 440 lb-ft)
- Four-wheel drive
Why choose the 2024 Ford Bronco?
While we still don’t know how Ford will update the 2024 Bronco, we do know that this midsize SUV will be an all-star off-roader. Reserve yours because you want an SUV that can travel just about anywhere, whether over uneven terrain, through muddy riverbanks, or down sand dunes.
Of course, the Bronco trim models also offer a wide range of different options. For instance, if you’re looking for a desert racer, the high-performance Raptor trim model is a great choice. To combine rugged performance with an upscale interior, check out the Outer Banks.
When can I order the 2024 Ford Bronco?
Ford has yet to tell us when order banks will open, but rumor has it that you’ll be able to reserve your 2024 Bronco on August 14, 2023.
