Ford Bronco Sport: information, price and comparisons

The Ford Bronco Sport is a compact SUV with four-wheel drive standard on every Canadian version. Ford Canada sells the 2026 model in four trims (Big Bend, Heritage, Outer Banks and Badlands), and its online showroom lists it from CA$38,140. The 2026 range is listed at CA$39,245 to CA$53,190. The first three use a 180 hp 1.5L turbo three-cylinder; the Badlands gets a 250 hp 2.0L turbo four and Advanced 4x4. There's no hybrid. Built in Mexico, it's smaller and less expensive than the full-size Bronco, and Ford now points Escape buyers to it. Ford Authority has reported a US 2027 model with fewer standard features; Ford Canada still lists the 2026.

2026 Bronco Sport trims and Canadian prices

Ford doesn't list trim prices, and neither price source above says whether fees are included; confirm both in Ford Canada's Build & Price tool.

Ford Canada lists heated front seats, blind-spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control as standard, and highlights a 13.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Car Guide calls the 2026 virtually unchanged.

Bronco Sport engines and fuel consumption

Outputs and fuel ratings are Ford Canada's figures. On those ratings neither engine reaches the federal green levy's 13 L/100 km starting point, and with prices far below CA$100,000 the luxury tax doesn't apply.

Bronco Sport 2027, the Escape and what's next

  • 2027 (US report): Ford Authority reported on September 12, 2026 that the US 2027 model drops auto start-stop and several standard features. Canadian content may differ; Ford Canada still listed the 2026 on November 9, 2026.
  • The Escape: Ford Canada lists the Escape as discontinued (production ended December 17, 2025) and steers its buyers to the similar-size Bronco Sport and the Maverick pickup.
  • Next generation: The Car Guide (August 2025) expects a redesign for 2028, likely with a hybrid; Ford hasn't announced one.
