Reviews SummaryCelebrating six decades this year, the Bronco offers a 60th Anniversary Package on the Outer Banks model in Wimbledon White with special badging and unique accents. The Baja-inspired Stroppe Edition is back for 2026, too, but it drops the two-door option. The Wildtrak also returns as an option package rather than a fully fledged trim. Then there are the typical model year changes of packaging updates, color changes, and feature availability. Verdict: No matter the trim level, the Ford Bronco is a head-turner with its retro styling, open-air roof option, and mega off-road chops. It isn't the best daily driver, though, because it has a noisy cabin, poor fuel economy, uncomfortable back seats, and a chunky A-pillar that creates blind spots. | |
