2024 Bronco

A smaller lineup, a bigger standard screen

Ford removed the Base series for 2024, made the 12-inch center screen standard, and gave Bronco Raptor a vivid new appearance package.

The 2024 U.S. Bronco catalog began with Big Bend after Ford deleted the Base series. Nine named series remained, from the two-door/four-door core lineup through the four-door-only Everglades and Raptor, while Heritage models continued their retro theme.

This page covers the body-on-frame Bronco sold in the United States, not Bronco Sport. Equipment and availability varied by series, body, powertrain, package and production date, so a particular vehicle should be verified from its VIN, certification label and original window sticker.

Why it matters

The 2024 model year simplified the entry point while spreading a previously premium 12-inch touchscreen across every series, an important usability change hidden beneath a mostly familiar exterior lineup.

What this page covers

Market: United States; body-on-frame Ford Bronco only. Bronco Sport and non-U.S. configurations are outside this page's scope.

Body styles: two-door sport utility; four-door sport utility

What changed for this year

Base series deleted
Ford's August 16, 2023 order guide explicitly lists Base under deleted series, leaving Big Bend as the opening series for 2024. [1]
12-inch screen standard
The 12-inch capacitive center touchscreen became standard on every series; it had previously been included with the High Package. [1]
Configuration changes
Outer Banks lost its two-door body, the 2.7-liter V6 was deleted from Big Bend, and the 2.3-liter/ten-speed combination was no longer offered on Badlands. [1]

Models and trims

Nine-series lineup
Big Bend, Black Diamond, Outer Banks, Badlands, Wildtrak, Everglades, Raptor, Heritage Edition and Heritage Limited Edition. [1]
Body availability
Big Bend, Black Diamond, Badlands, Wildtrak and both Heritage series had two- and four-door order codes. Outer Banks, Everglades and Raptor were four-door only. [1]
Order codes
Ford listed E7A/E7B for Big Bend, E1A/E1B for Black Diamond, E8B for Outer Banks, E9A/E9B for Badlands, E2A/E2B for Wildtrak, E4H for Everglades, E0R for Raptor, E4C/E4D for Heritage and E4E/E4G for Heritage Limited. [1]

Engines and transmissions

2.3-liter EcoBoost I-4 (99H)
275 hp and 315 lb-ft on regular fuel, or 300 hp and 325 lb-ft on premium. The seven-speed manual and ten-speed automatic were offered subject to series restrictions. [1]
2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 (99P)
315 hp and 410 lb-ft on regular fuel, or 330 hp and 415 lb-ft on premium, paired with the ten-speed automatic. [1]
3.0-liter EcoBoost V6 (99R)
Raptor's premium-fuel V6 produced 418 hp and 440 lb-ft and used the ten-speed automatic. [1] [5]
EPA combined fuel economy
EPA records span 15 to 20 mpg combined across the twelve listed 2024 Bronco configurations: 20 mpg for the standard 2.3/2.7-liter Bronco records, 17-18 mpg for Black Diamond, Badlands and Sasquatch records, and 15 mpg for Raptor. [3] Use the EPA label for the exact engine, transmission and equipment combination; this range is only a catalog overview.

Capability and specifications

Maximum trailer rating
Ford's guide lists up to 3,500 lb for properly equipped standard Broncos and up to 4,500 lb for Bronco Raptor. [2] The exact limit depends on configuration and loading; verify the vehicle labels and towing guide.
Trailer preparation
Trailer Tow Prep Pack became standard on every series except Raptor; the compatible trailer-tow equipment itself was listed as a dealer-installed option. [1] [2]
U.S. calendar-year sales
Ford Authority's model table reports 109,172 Bronco sales for calendar 2024, up 3.32% from 2023. Ford's own year-end release reports 233,873 combined Bronco and Bronco Sport sales but does not separate the two in its narrative. [4] [8] 109,172 is a sourced secondary tabulation, not model-year production. It is retained with its attribution rather than presented as a Ford model-year build total.

Colors and interiors

Paint changes
Shelter Green was new. Area 51 and Code Orange exterior paint were deleted from the regular paint list; Code Orange instead supplied the accent color for Raptor's new appearance package. [1] [5]
Seat materials
The order guide offered marine-grade vinyl, cloth, leather-trimmed/vinyl and Raptor-specific marine-grade-vinyl or leather-trimmed seating, depending on series and equipment group. [1]

Options and packages

Raptor Code Orange Appearance Package (51A)
The late-availability package added Code Orange graphics and accents, beadlock-capable wheels, black-painted roof and mirror caps, and interior Code Orange treatments to Bronco Raptor. [1] [5]
Sasquatch Package
Sasquatch continued to combine 35-inch tires, beadlock-capable wheels, electronic-locking axles, 4.70 final drive, high-clearance flares and upgraded HOSS suspension content; eligibility varied by series. [1]
High/Lux Package
Ford renamed the High Package as High/Lux and included one year of Connected Navigation on eligible Outer Banks, Badlands, Wildtrak, Raptor and Heritage Limited configurations. [1]

Safety and recalls

Recall snapshot
NHTSA's model-year query returned 16 safety-recall campaigns that may include a 2024 Ford Bronco as of September 11, 2026. [6] A model-year result does not establish that a specific VIN is affected. Check both NHTSA and Ford with the 17-character VIN.
Driver assistance
Pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking was standard; blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assistance and a 360-degree camera depended on series or equipment group. [1]

Owner and buyer notes

Confirm the exact series
Use the window sticker and Ford's body/order codes instead of appearance alone; Heritage, Sasquatch and Raptor packages can share prominent wheels, flares and graphics. [1]
Check open campaigns
Run the VIN through both NHTSA and Ford before purchase or service because the model-year campaign list is broader than any one vehicle's build and equipment. [6]
Verify towing equipment
A standard Trailer Tow Prep Pack does not by itself prove that all towing equipment is installed. Confirm the receiver/wiring, payload label and VIN-specific rating. [1] [2]

Stories from this year

Orange without orange paint
Ford announced Raptor's Code Orange package on August 11, 2023—the Bronco nameplate's 58th birthday. For 2024, Code Orange disappeared as a body-paint choice but became the package's visual signature in graphics, tow hooks, wheel rings, belts and cabin accents. [1] [5]
