Ford Bronco Sport 2027: Key Specs and Features

the Ford Bronco Sport 2027 enters its new year as the cheapest SUV in Ford‘s lineup for this year, with a starting price of approximately $41,390, equivalent to SAR 155,213. The vehicle does more than offer a competitive entry price; it combines the compact dimensions of a design inspired by the character of the Bronco with four-wheel-drive capabilities. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine produces 181 horsepower and 190 Nm of torque in the base trims, while the Badlands trim upgrades to a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine producing 250 horsepower and 277 Nm of torque.

This variety gives Saudi buyers the opportunity to choose the powertrain that best suits their usage. The smaller engine is suitable for daily commuting and highways, while the larger engine offers greater power reserves for those who frequently travel, take off-road trips, and seek greater capabilities away from paved roads.

With standard four-wheel drive across all trims and a starting price of SAR 155,213, the 2027 Bronco Sport succeeds in combining practicality and adventure capability within a lower price range compared with larger Ford vehicles.

Power and Performance

The 2027 Ford Bronco Sport comes with four-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission across all trims. The Big Bend, Heritage, and Outer Banks trims use a 1.5-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine, while the Badlands features a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine. This variety reflects more than differences in equipment; it largely defines the vehicle’s character. The base engine is designed for daily use, while the Badlands clearly shifts the focus toward performance and off-road driving.

The 1.5-liter engine produces 181 horsepower and 190 Nm of torque. These figures provide sufficient performance for city driving, highways, and overtaking, but they do not make the Bronco Sport a vehicle focused on sporty performance. In contrast, the Badlands increases output to 250 horsepower and 277 Nm of torque, giving it stronger response and greater power reserves when climbing slopes or tackling difficult terrain. This is where the value of the larger engine becomes clearer, as it serves the vehicle’s adventurous nature rather than being merely a numerical upgrade.

The Bronco Sport reaches its maximum capabilities with the Badlands and Sasquatch package, which adds more suitable off-road tires, underbody protection plates, and a dedicated rear differential, allowing the vehicle to handle terrain beyond what is typical in the compact SUV segment.

The following table outlines the power and performance specifications of the 2027 Ford Bronco Sport:

A comparison of the powertrain options shows that the 1.5-liter engine meets daily driving needs effectively, while the Badlands offers greater value for those planning to drive off paved roads, thanks to its additional power and specialized off-road equipment.

However, these capabilities come at the expense of some on-road comfort, with a rougher ride and higher noise levels. Accordingly, the Bronco Sport’s character becomes more apparent as it moves farther from paved roads, where its off-road capabilities evolve from an additional advantage into a core part of its value.

Fuel Efficiency

Fuel efficiency in the 2027 Ford Bronco Sport varies according to the engine and trim. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine records consumption of 9.3 L/100 km in the city and 7.8 L/100 km on the highway, while consumption with the 2.0-liter engine in the Badlands rises to 11.2 L/100 km in the city and 8.7 L/100 km on the highway.

The 2027 Bronco Sport benefits from its variety of powertrain options. The 1.5-liter engine provides better efficiency for buyers focused on daily use, while the 2.0-liter engine in the Badlands delivers greater power and off-road capability, despite its relatively higher fuel consumption.

Thus, buyers can choose the powertrain that suits their usage, whether their priority is economical daily commuting or performance and off-road capability.

Exterior Design

The 2027 Ford Bronco Sport clearly derives its identity from the larger Bronco, with a design that gives it a strong, adventure-ready appearance despite its compact dimensions. The boxy body shape supports this identity and suits the vehicle’s nature and off-road capabilities, particularly in trims equipped with off-road tires.

Although the Bronco Sport borrows many of the Bronco’s design cues, the two do not share mechanical components, as the Bronco Sport retains its own powertrain within the compact SUV segment.

Key exterior design features:

• Design inspired by the identity of the larger Ford Bronco.
• Compact body with an appearance designed for adventure and off-road driving.
• Boxy design that enhances the vehicle’s practicality and strong character.
• Off-road tires available depending on the trim.
• Steel wheels on the Big Bend, compared with aluminum wheels on higher trims.
• 17- or 18-inch wheels available depending on the trim.
• The Sasquatch package adds equipment more specifically oriented toward off-road driving.

The Bronco Sport gains greater importance in Ford’s 2027 lineup with the Ford Escape leaving the market, making it the smallest and least expensive Ford SUV this year.

We believe this shift strengthens the Bronco Sport’s position as Ford’s compact option, but with an identity different from the Escape. Rather than focusing on practicality for urban use, the Bronco Sport is more clearly oriented toward rugged design and off-road capability.

Interior Design

The 2027 Ford Bronco Sport’s cabin retains a practical character suited to the vehicle’s adventurous personality, with clearly arranged controls and good front-row space. The relatively high roof provides comfortable headroom, while the front seats offer extensive adjustment, including lumbar support.

In the rear, the cabin provides good headroom for adults, but legroom is more limited compared with the front row. Child seats can also be installed, although the limited opening angle of the rear doors and lower roofline may make installation less convenient.

Key cabin features:

• Good headroom in both the front and rear rows.
• Wide-ranging front-seat adjustment with lumbar support.
• Front doors that open at a wide angle for easier entry and exit.
• Clear, easy-to-read digital instrument panel.
• Controls positioned within easy reach.
• Standard 13.2-inch center screen.
• Low loading floor and high roof in the cargo area.
• Removable rubber floor available for easier cleaning.
• Hooks, lights, and outlets in the cargo area.
• Optional versatile organizer that can be divided into shelves or used as a table.

Although the cabin offers good practical solutions, we note that noise insulation is not one of its strengths. Road and wind noise can be more noticeable compared with some competitors, partly due to the boxy design and off-road tires.

Technology and Entertainment

The 2027 Ford Bronco Sport offers an integrated technology system focused on ease of use, with a large 13.2-inch center screen and SYNC 4, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support. A range of digital services and functions is also available, including over-the-air updates, built-in Alexa, and integrated apps, while multiple USB-C ports make it easier to charge devices inside the cabin.

Key technology and entertainment features:

• 13.2-inch center screen.
• SYNC 4 system.
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• Built-in Alexa.
• Integrated apps and over-the-air software updates.
• Multiple USB-C ports.
• 6-speaker audio system.
• Bluetooth audio streaming.
• AM/FM radio and SiriusXM.
• Available navigation system that is not standard, with a subscription and complimentary service during the first year.
• 911 Assist emergency assistance system.

Safety and Security

The 2027 Bronco Sport comes with a wide range of safety and driver-assistance systems. Standard equipment includes anti-lock brakes, brake assist, and a set of airbags. The driver-assistance suite also includes lane keeping and adaptive cruise control. These systems are notable for being easy to use and for avoiding intrusive intervention while driving.

Key safety and security features:

• Anti-lock braking system (ABS).
• Brake assist system.
• Front and side airbags.
• Knee airbag.
• Airbags protecting passengers in the rear seats.
• Rear collision mitigation system.
• Lane-keeping system.
• Adaptive cruise control.
• Parking assist.
• Tire-pressure monitoring.
• Power door locks.
• 911 Assist emergency system.

Ford’s efforts to make the 2027 Bronco Sport’s safety system play an important role in making the vehicle more suitable for daily use are evident, particularly with systems such as lane keeping and adaptive cruise control, which operate smoothly without intrusive intervention.

When moving onto off-road terrain, however, the true value does not come from driver-assistance systems alone, but from their integration with four-wheel drive and the mechanical equipment designed for this type of driving.

Thus, the Bronco Sport offers a balanced approach that combines the safety drivers need on paved roads with the capabilities they rely on when the pavement ends.

Trims and Prices

The 2027 Ford Bronco Sport is offered in four trims, starting with the Big Bend, which focuses on providing four-wheel drive and the base engine at a lower entry price. Equipment and distinctive styling increase with the Heritage and Outer Banks, leading to the Badlands, the trim most focused on performance and off-road driving thanks to its more powerful 2.0-liter engine and specialized equipment.

The following table outlines the key differences between the vehicle’s trims:

How do you choose the right trim?

Choosing a 2027 Ford Bronco Sport trim depends primarily on how the vehicle will be used, because the differences between trims extend beyond appearance and equipment to include the engine and off-road capabilities.

The Syarah team recommends choosing the trim that suits you according to the following priorities:

• Big Bend: Suitable for those who want to enter the Bronco Sport world at the lowest cost, with a 1.5-liter engine, four-wheel drive, and capabilities appropriate for daily use and light adventures.
• Heritage: Suitable for those who want a higher level of character and equipment while retaining the 1.5-liter engine, without needing to move to the more powerful engine.
• Outer Banks: Suitable for those who place greater importance on appearance and equipment, particularly the 18-inch aluminum wheels, while retaining the base engine powertrain.
• Badlands: The best choice for those planning to use the Bronco Sport extensively away from paved roads, thanks to its 2.0-liter engine producing 250 horsepower and 277 Nm of torque, along with specialized off-road equipment.

The Sasquatch package is worth considering for those who want to access the Bronco Sport’s maximum capabilities on rough trails, with more suitable tires, protection plates, and additional equipment.

Key Competitors

The 2027 Ford Bronco Sport competes with a range of compact SUVs that combine daily usability with the ability to handle different driving conditions, including:

• Kia Sportage
• Toyota RAV4
• Subaru Forester

Syarah Technical Experts’ Opinion of the 2027 Ford Bronco Sport

After reviewing the 2027 Ford Bronco Sport’s specifications, it is clear that although fuel efficiency is not among its top priorities, this largely aligns with its role as a compact SUV designed for adventure and off-road driving. The more powerful engine in the Badlands, specialized tires, four-wheel-drive system, and dedicated equipment all reflect a philosophy focused more on capability and handling varied terrain than on achieving the lowest possible fuel consumption.

Therefore, we believe these consumption figures should be understood within the context of the vehicle itself, particularly for those seeking these capabilities at the expense of lower fuel-consumption figures.

The key advantages of the 2027 Ford Bronco Sport include:

• Strong off-road capabilities, particularly in the Badlands with the Sasquatch package.
• Standard four-wheel drive across all trims, supporting use on varied terrain.
• Multiple engine and trim options, allowing buyers to choose according to their usage and budget.
• A 2.0-liter engine producing 250 horsepower and 277 Nm in the Badlands, delivering stronger performance away from paved roads.
• Design inspired by the Ford Bronco, giving it a clear and distinctive character in the compact SUV segment.
• Good technology equipment, including a 13.2-inch screen and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support.
• Practical cargo space with a low loading floor, high roof, and multiple organization solutions.
• Standard driver-assistance systems such as lane keeping and adaptive cruise control.
• Equipment variety between trims allows buyers to balance price, capability, and features.
