• Outer Banks: This trim adds leather seating surfaces, a heated steering wheel, LED lighting, and available turbo V6 power for a more comfort-focused setup.
• Heritage Edition: This trim leans into the retro look and includes the Sasquatch package as standard equipment.
• Badlands: This trim adds bigger tires, an upgraded suspension package, a classier interior, and a front sway-bar disconnect for more serious trail use.

What Ford Bronco do most buyers choose?

The Ford Bronco years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2022.

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, color, and price. They also often sit in the sweet spot between newer features and more accessible pricing.

What is the Ford Bronco's resale value?

Prices are moving down across every year shown, which is good news if you’re shopping used. The sharpest drops are in the newest model years, while the older years show smaller declines. That pattern gives you more room to find value without giving up the Bronco’s core appeal.

The 2023, 2022, and 2021 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used Ford Bronco now or wait for the next model?

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The 2025 Bronco base 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine spins out 300 horsepower and 325 pound-feet of torque, while the optional turbocharged 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 ups output to 330 hp and 415 lb-ft of torque.

• Starting price: The 2025 Bronco starts at $40,990 in base trim.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
