Introduction
The 2026 Ford Bronco marks a major milestone for one of America’s most iconic SUVs. Even a twenty-five-year hiatus couldn’t stop the Bronco from gearing up for another year of legendary capability and modern design. Whether you remember the original two-door trailblazer or have just fallen in love with the modern revival of 2021, the 2026 Bronco brings the best of both worlds: heritage styling, updated retro designs, advanced safety features, towing technology, and trail-ready performance that’s more capable than ever.
With special edition trims, bold design updates, and new off-road features rumored to debut, the 60th anniversary lineup is set to be more than a tribute. The 2026 model is expected to be a statement. Here’s your first look at how Ford plans to celebrate the sixty years since the first Ford Bronco with its 2026 release.

What’s new for the 2026 Ford Bronco?
With the upcoming celebration of sixty years since the first Bronco was introduced in 1966, we anticipate some nods and tributes to designs, similar to what Ford did with the Bronco Heritage Edition, which honors the original 1966 Ford Bronco, and the Stroppe Edition that pays homage to Baja racing and designer Bill Stroppe from the 1960s and 1970s.
Ford could enhance safety features and update some exterior and interior elements, such as the shapes of the headlights or the interior layout. We eagerly await official specifications to confirm.
What packages enhance the new Ford Bronco?
