The 2025 Ford Bronco is as capable as it looks. It's a traditional SUV that boasts impressive off-road potential and a dizzying array of available configurations. As you might expect from its boxy shape, wind noise and poor fuel economy are its biggest drawbacks.Read full review

Overview
When Ford rebooted the Bronco name in 2021, it was perhaps one of the most hotly anticipated launches in recent memory. With the Bronco redesigned and refocused to compete head-on with the Jeep Wrangler, Ford threw out all the stops to make it a modern-day go-anywhere SUV. Available with two or four doors, a manual or automatic transmission, and some serious off-road hardware, the Bronco offers a configuration for almost any off-road enthusiast. For the 2025 Bronco, Ford is mostly standing pat. The most notable update is a new retro 1970s-inspired appearance package called Free Wheeling. It's available as a package on the Big Bend trim.

We drove the 2025 Ford Bronco on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Driving experience
6.3/10
How does the Ford Bronco drive? Whether you stick with the turbo four-cylinder or opt for the turbo V6, the Bronco has sufficient and smooth power for daily driving with a quick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission. Edmunds achieved 0-60 mph acceleration ranging from 8.4 seconds (four-cylinder with a manual and four doors) to 7 seconds (V6 with an auto and two doors) in our independent testing.
Jumping hard on the brakes produces plenty of nosedive — normal for off-road SUVs — though emergency stopping distances were very long. From 60 mph, a panic stop took 146 feet — we typically see that kind of distance with heavy-duty trucks. The distances are partially due to our car's all-terrain tires, but other Broncos we've tested with less aggressive rubber weren't much better.
The real star is the steering. Thanks to an independent front suspension, the Bronco's steering wheel relays confidence and stability to its driver at freeway speeds. A truck-based construction means it has a bit firmer and bouncier ride than other SUVs, but it's not enough to make you want to drive it any less.
Outward visibility is pretty good all around, but the massive rearview camera display is phenomenal. It takes up the entire touchscreen and is crystal-clear.

Comfort
5.4/10

The climate system allows you to adjust the intensity of the auto setting, and the available heated front seats work extremely fast, which is excellent if you've got the doors off on a cold day. The removable hardtop lets in a significant amount of wind noise at pretty much any speed, dragging down the Bronco's score in this category. There were also several rattles and vibrations during our off-road testing, almost like the hardtop panels didn't fit together properly.
Want to bring the kid(s) along on your adventures? The Bronco's spacious second row means you can fit a rear-facing child seat without needing to negotiate for room with the front passenger.
In-cabin tech
7.6/10
How’s the tech? The Sync 4 system is starting to show its age. It takes a little while to load the software initially, and you'll notice some lag as you cycle through menus. But the menu structure is easy to navigate, which helps out a lot. Speaking of navigation, this system is very easy to use, and we like that "Include 4x4 roads" is a selectable option when planning a route. It really shows that Ford put thought into how its drivers will use the system.
It's not the most high-tech vehicle on the road, but the Bronco isn't a Luddite either. It has six USB ports plus standard wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There's also a smartphone app with unique off-road trail maps. A wireless charging pad and digital key are not offered.

Storage & cargo
4.5/10
How’s storage and cargo? The Bronco's bigger size compared to the Wrangler translates into a larger interior with more cargo space. The Bronco's rear swing gate opens to the passenger side and stays in place thanks to a strut. On hardtop models, the rear glass folds up easily, but the soft top doesn't open as far and needs a prop rod to stay up. Interior storage options are adequate, with an appropriate number of cupholders and spaces for personal items. Most versions of the Bronco tow up to 3,500 pounds (the only outlier is the Raptor, which is rated to pull 4,500 pounds). That's enough for a small trailer but ultimately less than what the Jeep Wrangler and Toyota 4Runner — and even crossover rivals like the VW Atlas Cross Sport and Honda Passport — can pull.
Value
6.1/10
Is the Ford Bronco a good value? Some people might be disappointed with a few cheap-looking interior materials in the Bronco, especially in higher-end models, but others may see the benefit to long-term durability when the interior is exposed to the elements. The Bronco delivers off-road hardware more broadly through its pricing spectrum than the Jeep Wrangler, providing greater access for shoppers at different budgets. It also opens access to serious off-road performance at a much lower price point than the Toyota 4Runner. Warranty coverage is average for the segment.
MPG
3/10
How’s the fuel economy? All non-Raptor Broncos are rated between 18 and 20 mpg in the EPA's combined cycle, with variances due to the powertrain and wheel and tire package on the vehicle. Because there's no equivalent to the Wrangler 4xe plug-in, no matter which Bronco you get, you'll run up quite the fuel bill. We owned a turbocharged V6-powered 2021 Bronco First Edition for several years, and it averaged 16.4 mpg over the course of 40,000-plus miles. A similarly lengthy ownership test of a V6 2018 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon yielded a 17.5 mpg average over 50,000-plus miles.
X factor
10/10
The Bronco's charisma is off the charts. Just seeing one — especially if you opt for one of the many retro styling packages — makes you smile. But the Bronco isn't just a looker; it offers praiseworthy capability and character in equal measure. As with the Wrangler, removing the Bronco's roof and doors makes for a highly enjoyable driving experience, but the Bronco has more on-road appeal with its superior ride and handling.
The off-road driver aids are helpful not just for rookies, and tools such as the Trail Turn Assist add genuine fun even for seasoned off-roaders. And if getting a manual transmission wasn't a bragging right already, the Bronco does one better by giving you a super high-ratio crawler gear.

Buying Tips for the 2025 Ford Bronco for November
Bronco shoppers have a rare opening right now, with buyers paying about $5,010 below MSRP on average and remaining new inventory sitting for a very slow 332 days.
- You can save about $5,010 total on a 2025 Bronco. That discount is coming from dealer pricing, not a general cash rebate, because there are no general customer rebates right now. The Edmunds Suggested Price is roughly 10% below sticker, and high-end trims like the Stroppe Edition and Raptor stand out at about 14% off MSRP.
- There are about 1,275 new Broncos available nationwide, so supply is decent but not huge. Big Bend and Badlands have the best selection, while Heritage Edition is extremely scarce, so expect less flexibility if that’s your target trim.
- New Broncos are taking a median 332 days to turn, versus 39 days for the average new vehicle, which points to soft demand. That gives you a stronger case to ask for a discount off the advertised price, especially on aging units that have been sitting the longest.
- If you want more choice, the used market is deep with about 2,342 used Broncos nationwide, starting around $38,000. That gives you a solid fallback and extra leverage if a dealer won’t move enough on a new one.

2025 Ford Bronco trim level differences
The 2025 Ford Bronco is a four-wheel-drive SUV available in six primary trim levels. In order of price, they are: Base, Big Bend, Heritage Edition, Outer Banks, Badlands and Raptor. All Broncos can be kitted out with a long list of options, ranging from appearance and personalization options to different roofs to off-road hardware, wheels and other accessories. Keep reading for what you need to know about the Bronco's most significant standard and optional features. Compare the 2025 Ford Bronco trim levels in-depth.
Which Bronco trim does Edmunds recommend?
We suggest going for the Big Bend trim. It's an entry-level trim, but it still offers a good amount of standard equipment. And you can opt for the Sasquatch or Mid trim packages if you want to add more capability or creature comforts.
Competitors to consider
You can't mention the Bronco without mentioning the Jeep Wrangler. Both vehicles can go pretty much anywhere and offer pretty similar levels of off-road capability, from mild to wild. Toyota's 4Runner also deserves a look. It is getting quite long in the tooth, but when properly equipped, the Toyota offers nearly as much off-road prowess but it behaves far better, and is much quieter, on the open road. Read on below to find out what we like, dislike and love about the Bronco.
Edmunds spotlight: Off-roading at any speed
Casual buyers might picture off-roading as simply driving down a dusty trail, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. The Bronco offers enough options, be it through accessories or hardware, to tackle just about any kind of off-roading you can imagine. In its basic form, the Bronco's ground clearance and standard four-wheel drive will get you down most trails with ease. If you're into slower, more technical off-roading over larger rocks, the Bronco's Sasquatch package includes some seriously impressive and rugged off-road hardware. And if you like going as fast as possible through the dirt, the Bronco Raptor adds trick shocks, a more powerful engine, and recalibrated stability control to help you live out your desert-running dreams.
