2025 Ford Bronco vs. 2024 Ford Bronco Upgrade Breakdown
2024 Broncos received a larger infotainment touchscreen, Shelter Green and Velocity Blue exterior colors, and 17-inch wheel options. At trim-level, the Badlands received a heavy modular front bumper and the Raptor now features a Code Orange appearance package.
2025’s Bronco lineup saw the return of the Base trim discontinued in 2024, and the 70s-inspired (orange-striped!) Free Wheeling appearance package was added. The Sasquatch off-road package was made optional for this model; it features high-clearance fender flares, 35-inch Goodyear Territory mud-terrain tires, a raised suspension, and upgraded Bilstein shock absorbers.
The Black Diamond, Wildtrak, Everglades, and Heritage Limited Edition trims are discontinued for 2025, but Black Diamond has not gone away entirely. It is now a Big Bend package option.
Other additions and changes for 2025 include:
- Mud-terrain tires for Sasquatch-equipped trims
- A Black Appearance package
- A Stroppe Special Edition two-door performance model
- Center console rear vents for four-door, 10-speed automatic Broncos
- Matte Clear Film paint protection
- More sound insulation and optional 12-speaker B&O sound system
- Standard 12.0-inch driver display and footwell ambient lighting
- Standard heated steering wheel for the Badlands, Outer Banks, and Raptor trims
- Optional HOSS 3.0 suspension and FITS tether system for the Badlands only
The Ford Bronco’s Engine Power: What’s Under the Hood for Both Model Years?
The Bronco’s engine options have not changed between the two model years:
- A 2.3-liter four-cylinder as the base option, generating up 300-horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque on premium gas
- A twin-turbo 2.7-liter V-6 (available on Outer Banks and Heritage Edition trims) delivering 315 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque (jumping up to 330 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque on premium gas)
- A twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 cranking out 418 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque (Raptor trim only)
Engines are mated with a standard 7-speed manual transmission or an available 10-speed automatic transmission and four-wheel drive.
The Ford Bronco Features the Latest In Tech
The Bronco is all about the rough and tumble terrain, but that doesn’t mean it lacks in tech perks. Its infotainment touchscreen is 12.0-inches across all trim and features Ford’s SYNC and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Buyers can have the option of a Wi-Fi hotspot, built-in navigation, and a Bang and Olufsen stereo system. In short, you can have a heck of a driving soundtrack and other entertaining bells and whistles while you’re traversing the trail!
