I went over all the changes to the 2026 Bronco Sport last October in a video if you want to see the complete list of changes.
If you don't want to watch the video, here are my notes I used for the video:
Colors
Added Space White
Added Orange Fury (NA Bronze Pkgs)
Removed Eruption Green...
I just found out that it should open up on October 15, I assume along with Bronco. Prior to 2026MY it ran along with Maverick since it was built at the same plant. But it looks like they want it to match up with Bronco this year.
No loss in HP, 250HP. Early information was incorrect. They added a gas filter starting with July production but there will be no loss of horsepower after testing. Here are some of the changes to the base Badlands from 2024.
Front Bumper is steel with tow hooks
Rear Bumper is updated
Updated...
It gets upgraded protection, aux switches, front and rear Bumpers with steel plates, recovery points in the front and rear, tow package (only other way to get this with out going Sasquatch), cargo management system, fender tire downs. It's for the adventurous person that isn't doing off roading...
At launch, they said a gas filter would need to be added to both the 1.5L and the 2.0L in CARB states. 1.5L received theirs at job 2. 2.0L will receive theirs at job 3 slated to start production in July. They did say that both the Maverick and Bronco Sport Badlands would see a 12 horsepower...
