Exciting news from Ford From the Road and Car and Driver magazine: the 2027 Ford Bronco is slated to return in early 2027, and the mid-size, body-on-frame SUV is expected to be more adventure-ready than ever, especially for orienteers here in the Lowcountry region. Blue Oval enthusiasts are already wondering: what's new about it? The experts at O. C. Welch Ford Lincoln Inc. have the scoop.
Two Rugged New Trims
Ford will add two thrilling trim levels to the Bronco lineup for the upcoming model year: the Filson and the RTR. Both will surely turn heads around Bluffton.
The brand's already billing the RTR trim as a harder-core off-roader than its siblings. It'll feature a custom RTR front grille, Hyper Lime hood graphic accents, rock rings, and exclusive 17-inch bead-lock-capable wheels. The special-edition Filson hearkens to its outdoor-outfitter namesake.
Broader EcoBoost Engine Availability
The celebrated twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 will now be offered on more Bronco trims. The Outer Banks, Badlands, and Heritage trims will feature it as an option, while the Filson trim will incorporate it as standard. With a horsepower rating of 380 and a torque rating of 440 pound-feet, it'll be prepared to propel your Bronco toward new vistas outside of Hilton Head Island.
Big Design Changes
Every new 2027 Bronco will have a statement to make to friends and family on Beaufort road trips. The Outer Banks trim, for example, will offer a Lux Package that incorporates new, durable premium vinyl upholstery to replace the outgoing leather seating. The Badlands trim will add custom upgraded marine-grade vinyl (MGV) seats with power adjustability. The Big Bend trim will offer a Mid Package with a heated steering wheel for a more comfortable drive on chilly mornings in Savannah, GA.
Wider Color Palette
Several new hues will be available on the 2027 Bronco to grab the attention of onlookers around Pooler. A cool Neptune Blue option will replace the outgoing Velocity Blue, and exclusive Field Green and Iron Sands Metallic shades will be available on the Filson trim.
