Ford also added a new Bronze Package that gives the car cool bronze wheels and special accents. You can even pick from new colors like Orange Fury and Space White to make your SUV stand out..

Power & Off-Road Fun

The 2026 Ford Bronco Sport is made to go anywhere. Every model comes with a standard 4x4, so you have fantastic grip even on slippery or muddy roads. You can choose from two different engines:

-1.5L EcoBoost Engine: This peppy, efficient engine is perfect for driving around Jacksonville and Sherwood.
-2.0L EcoBoost Engine: This larger engine gives you 250 horsepower for extra speed and power on the highway.

Every Bronco Sport also has G.O.A.T. Modes (which stands for Goes Over Any Type of Terrain). These settings let you change how the car drives based on where you are. Whether you are driving through sand, mud, or snow, your Bronco Sport knows precisely how to handle it.

A Cabin Built for Adventure

The 2026 Bronco Sport's interior is designed to be tough and easy to use. The Safari-Style Roof gives everyone more headroom, making the cabin feel big and open. If you have a lot of gear, the back seats fold down to provide you with 65.2 cubic feet of space. For those messy trips, you can get rubberized flooring and seats that are easy to wipe clean. There is even a hidden bottle opener in the hatch and a floodlight on the liftgate to help you see when you are camping after dark.
