Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About the 2026 Ford Bronco Sport


What engine options are available on the 2026 Ford Bronco Sport?

The 2026 Bronco Sport offers two EcoBoost engine choices: the 1.5L three-cylinder (180 hp / 200 lb-ft torque) standard on Big Bend, Heritage, and Outer Banks trims, and the more powerful 2.0L four-cylinder (250 hp / 280 lb-ft torque) that comes standard on the Badlands. Both pair with an 8-speed SelectShift automatic transmission and standard 4x4.

How does the Bronco Sport differ from the full-size Bronco?

The Bronco Sport is a compact crossover SUV built on a car-based platform, making it more efficient, easier to park, and better suited for everyday use while still offering impressive trail capability with standard 4x4, G.O.A.T. Modes, and available off-road packages. The full-size Bronco is a body-on-frame SUV designed for serious rock-crawling with removable doors and roof. The Bronco Sport is the smarter pick for drivers who split time between trails and daily errands around Chantilly or Fairfax County.

What is the Sasquatch Package on the 2026 Bronco Sport?

The Sasquatch Package upgrades the Bronco Sport with the largest available tires in its class: 235/65R17 all-terrain tires, along with HOSS 3.0 off-road suspension and Bilstein rear position-sensitive shocks. It's available as an add-on for the Outer Banks and Badlands trims. The Sasquatch Outer Banks Package also adds Advanced 4x4 with twin-clutch rear drive unit, Trail Control™, and Trail One-Pedal Driving. The Sasquatch Badlands package represents the absolute peak of Bronco Sport off-road capability.

What is the Ford Connectivity Package on the 2026 Bronco Sport?

New for 2026, the Ford Connectivity Package is included for one year across all Bronco Sport trims. It bundles an unlimited Wi-Fi hotspot (powering up to 10 devices), Connected Navigation, enhanced voice assistance, streaming music, karaoke, and (when parked) YouTube video streaming via the standard 13.2" touchscreen. After the first year, the package can be renewed as a subscription. It's one of the most notable upgrades to the 2026 model year lineup.

What is the towing capacity of the 2026 Ford Bronco Sport?

When properly equipped with the available Class II Trailer Tow Package, the Bronco Sport can tow up to 2,700 lbs on Badlands models and 2,200 lbs on Big Bend and Outer Banks models. The Heritage trim does not offer a tow package. That's enough for a small boat, personal watercraft, or a loaded cargo trailer, great for Northern Virginia adventurers heading to Lake Anna or the Shenandoah Valley. Towing capacity varies by trim and configuration, so ask a Ted Britt Chantilly Ford specialist for details.
