  • The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport adds the Sasquatch off-road pack, which was initially launched on the body-on-frame Bronco.

  • This Bronco Sport Sasquatch package rides on 29-inch-tall Goodyear tires and features a revised and lifted suspension.

  • All 2025 Ford Bronco Sport models will feature a 13.2-inch touchscreen center display that runs Ford’s Sync 4 system.


Ford’s popular Bronco Sport is adding a host of upgrades for 2025, but the small crossover’s biggest leap is borrowing from its bigger, body-on-frame stablemate.

For 2025, Ford is adding a version of the Sasquatch package to the Bronco Sport. The Bronco Sport also adds a 13.2-inch standard center display, a 12.3-inch digital driver display, and a series of standard driver-assistance systems.

This Sasquatch package is available on 2.0-liter Badlands and 1.5-liter Outer Banks models. Kicking off the hardware upgrade is a twin-clutch rear differential, which was previously locked behind the Badlands trim level.

Joining this differential is a set of new front and rear springs that crank up the ride height by almost a half-inch and increase suspension travel. Bilstein rear shocks feature position-sensitive damping and pack piggyback reservoirs. All of this rides on a set of 29-inch Goodyear rubber that wraps 17-inch alloy wheels.

Also joining the Sasquatch pack is a set of steel skid plates, a standard front brush guard, and modular front and rear bumpers. There’s also an available 360-degree camera and a split-view camera that shows you the front wheels through cameras underneath the side-view mirrors.

Powering every Ford Bronco Sport is either a turbocharged 1.5-liter I4 or a 2.0-liter turbocharged I4. The standard, 1.5-liter mill sends 180 hp and 200 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic.

The 2.0-liter turbocharged I4 is reserved for the Badlands trim but boosts the output to 238 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque, also shuffled through an eight-speed automatic. Regardless of trim or engine, power will hit the Bronco Sport's all-wheel-drive system before reaching the pavement.

Inside the ’25 Bronco Sport, you’ll find a 13.2-inch digital touchscreen sitting in the middle of the dashboard, with a 12.3-inch digital driver display behind the steering wheel. On Sasquatch-equipped models, you’ll find an auxiliary switch panel integrated into the headliner.

On the driver-assistance front, the Bronco Sport rolls into the middle part of the decade with some solid features. Ford is including its Co-Pilot260 Assist Plus system as standard equipment, which means that a blind-spot information system, adaptive cruise control, and pre-collision system with automatic emergency braking come with no extra cost.

A 360-degree camera, reverse brake assist, and a speed sign recognition system are available, but they are standard equipment on the top-flight Badlands model.

Ford says the ’25 Bronco Sport is scheduled to hit dealers this November, with the exception of the Sasquatch Package-equipped machines—those aren’t going to arrive until early next year. There’s no word on pricing, but it wouldn’t be a huge surprise if there was a bump in price. Currently, the ’24 Bronco Sport starts at $31,390.
