2026 Ford Bronco Sport

Bronco Sport is the smaller, unibody, everyday-friendly Bronco-branded crossover. Trade-off versus full Bronco: less extreme off-road geometry; gain: better EPA and easier daily parking.

What's confirmed (EPA 2026)

EPA lists combined figures including 27, 24, and 23 mpg combined rows (city/hwy examples include 25/30, 23/26, 21/27 depending on powertrain/trim). Match the exact EPA vehicle string to the engine (1.5L vs 2.0L class) on the model page.

Practical notes

This is the Bronco product for mixed pavement/light trail use. Cross-shop Crosstrek, Tucson Trail packages, and CX-50 Meridian-style trims.

Safety

Score pending on DriveRevu axes pending a full IIHS/NHTSA citation matrix in a follow-up fetch.
