What’s new for the 2024 Ford Bronco?
Although the Bronco is mostly unchanged, there are a few cool updates for 2024. First off, every Bronco trim model now comes standard with a 12-inch infotainment touchscreen, making it easier than ever to access your favorite SYNC 4 apps (or wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto options). The Badlands trim model, which adds to the standard lineup with some trail-friendly upgrades, now comes standard with a heavy-duty steel front bumper. Finally, the Base model has been dropped from the trim lineup, which leaves the Big Bend as the new entry-level Bronco.
Does the 2024 Ford Bronco come with heated seats?
No, but you can add heated front seats to most Bronco trim models, courtesy of the available Mid Package. This package adds plenty of creature comforts and convenience features, including dual-zone automatic climate control, remote ignition, proximity keyless entry, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, blind-spot warning, and lane-keeping assistance.
If you’re looking for a Bronco with a little more interior luxury than most, we recommend checking out the Outer Banks. It adds to your everyday comfort and convenience with the aforementioned features, plus side step rails and upgraded LED headlights.
The Wildtrak is another upscale option. It adds to the Outer Banks lineup with a longer list of rugged features, making it the better option for drivers who want both interior luxury and an extra-capable off-road performance. The Wildtrak lineup includes Fox shocks, an upgraded terrain management system with seven G.O.A.T. Modes, and the contents of the Sasquatch package.
Does the 2024 Ford Bronco have a V8 engine?
Although the Bronco doesn’t offer eight cylinders, its turbocharged engine options give you as much power (or more!) as a classic V8 (not to mention much better fuel mileage). The most powerful engine in the Bronco stable is the Raptor’s exclusive turbo 3.0-liter V6, which gives you 418 horsepower and 440 pound-feet of torque for a high-performance off-road experience.
Other Bronco trim models are available with one of two engines. The base 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine not only delivers 300 horses, but it helps you earn the Bronco’s best EPA ratings (up to 20 mpg combined). The base engine is also the only option that’s available with the sporty seven-speed manual transmission. The stronger twin-turbo V6 (330 horses) is optional for most Bronco trims, though it’s standard on the Heritage Limited Edition and Wildtrak models.
Check out the 2024 Bronco powertrain options:
- Standard turbocharged 2.3L four-cylinder engine (300 hp, 325 lb-ft)
- Optional twin-turbo 2.7L V6 (330 hp, 415 lb-ft)
- Raptor turbo 3.0L V6 (418 hp, 440 lb-ft)
- Seven-speed manual transmission (2.3L engine only)
- Optional 10-speed automatic transmission
- Four-wheel drive
