2025 Ford Bronco: The Ford Bronco is entering the 2025 model year with bold changes. After skipping the Base trim in 2024 due to supply shortages and Ford’s focus on the Ranger lineup, the most affordable Bronco is officially coming back. However, Ford didn’t stop there—major trim cuts, equipment updates, and even a price drop for the Bronco Raptor are shaking things up for next year.

Base Trim Returns—But With a Delay
Despite its comeback, the Base trim won’t be available right at launch. It will enter the production cycle a bit later.
Ford keeps things simple and functional here:
| Bronco Base Highlights | Details |
|---|---|
| Doors | 2 door (hardtop) 4-door (soft top) |
| Wheel | 16 inch steel wheel |
| Engine | 2.3L EcoBoost turbo I-4 |
| Transmission | 7-speed manual (with “Granny Gear”), 10-speed automatic optional |
| Drive System | Part-time 4WD |
| Suspension | HOSS 1.0 basic suspension |
The Base model remains a true enthusiast choice—simple, capable, and mod-friendly.
Interior & Tech Updates
Ford upgraded the Base trim to keep up with today’s tech expectations.
Standard now:
- 12-inch digital instrument cluster (previously analog or 8-inch)
- 12-inch touchscreen infotainment
- FordPass Connect
- Built in 4G LTE hotspot (3GB/3 month free trial)
- Cloth manual seats
- Split fold rear seats (50/50 on 2 door 60/40 on 4-door)
The result: the most affordable Bronco finally feels modern.
Sasquatch Package Is Back!
Good news for off-road fans—Ford didn’t take away the Sasquatch Package from the Base trim.
Sasquatch includes:
- 35-inch all-terrain tires
- 17-inch beadlock-capable wheels
- High-clearance fenders
- Bilstein advanced dampers
- Front + rear locking differentials
- 4.7:1 gear ratio
It’s rare to see a base-level SUV support this level of off-road hardware. Credit to Ford.
Raptor and Badlands See Price Cuts
The off-road king—the Bronco Raptor is now a little more affordable financially, with its price falling below the $ 82,000 mark. The Badlands model also gets a small discount, now starting at $52,380, down $900.
Trim Cuts: What’s Discontinued
With the return of the Base trim, Ford is also doing away with several expensive and rare options. The other four trims, Black Diamond, Wildtrak, Everglades, and Heritage Limited Edition, will all disappear for 2025. But Ford is saying that the Stroppe Special Edition will replace Wildtrak and has not specified how many they will build. As well, two-door Big Bend and Heritage variants will no longer be available, which means that if the two-door option appeals to you, you will only have three choices: Base, Badlands, and Stroppe.
