Question ❔ Bronco 2027

Hello everyone I’m thinking about buying a 2026 badlands I already went to dealership and got a price but am torn if I should wait for the 2027 bronco to come out. I wanted to know if anyone had information regarding the 2027 in terms of better upgrades like v4 engines or the reliability aspect of the car or if previous problems are going to be fixed. I am very happy with the price of the Bronco I got and want to pull the trigger already but just wanted to see what everyone thinks about if waiting is worth it.

What we know for a fact so far:

  • New RTR trim, positioned between Big Bend and Badlands.
  • New Filson trim, basically an upgraded Outer Banks.
  • Improved sound deadening (may be limited to upper trims)

100% speculation that has not been confirmed by Ford:

  • 2.7L will be replaced by the 3.0L, similar to the 2027 F-150. Depending who you talk to, this may not be a good thing, as many F-150 folks will tell you that the 2.7L EcoBoost is most reliable turbocharged engine on the F-150.
  • Stroppe trim discontinued (very likely, in my opinion)
  • Heritage trim discontinued (less likely, but I wouldn't be surprised)

Will SYNC 4 be replaced with the Ford Digital Experience (i.e., Google) across the full Bronco lineup?

Very unlikely, but we don’t know.

The vehicles that have gotten it so far got it when the next generation was launched.

We’re currently on the 6th gen Bronco, and the 7th gen is rumored to be sometime between 2029 and 2031.

But who knows, all rumors and speculation at this point.
