Ford has created a 60th Anniversary package for its 2026 Bronco to celebrate the heritage of the vehicle that is said to have given us the words “sport utility.”

The Bronco 60th Anniversary Package gives buyers bold colours and accents on the inside and outside and some “timeless visuals,” as the company calls them, to enhance the SUV’s appearance.

The original Ford Bronco launched on Aug. 11, 1965 as a 1966 model year, and this package is intended to celebrate this 60-year heritage. The Bronco was available from 1966 to 1996 and from 2021 to present.

What’s in the package?

The 60th Anniversary package is actually an add-on to the Sasquatch package, which includes a 4×4 system with electronic-locking front and rear differentials, a high-clearance suspension, and a more aggressive final drive ratio.

The 60th Anniversary package gives the Bronco 35-inch Goodyear rugged terrain tires and unique 17-inch Gravity Gray alloy wheels, contrasting Vermilion Red centre cap with a Bucking Bronco logo in the middle and “1966” on the outside ring.

It’s available whether you choose a Bronco powered by the standard 2.3-litre EcoBoost four-cylinder engine or optional 2.7-litre EcoBoost V6.

The anniversary model also gets a new grille, inspired by the original, that features what’s called a Warm Alloy paint colour with Vermilion Red “BRONCO” lettering.

The Wimbledon White colour, which was available on the original Bronco, is back and is available with a matching roof, or customers can opt for the Ruby Red body colour with a Wimbledon White roof.

Buyers will also find graphics on the body sides in Vermilion Red and special badging on the fenders, as well as hidden Easter eggs.

Interior

The interior of the 60th Anniversary package gets premium materials, including Ebony leather upholstery on the seat outers and bolsters, Alpine leather inserts and 60th Anniversary logos on the seatbacks.

The arm rests get Alpine marine-grade vinyl, the leather-topped dashboard gets Alpine stitching and the instrument panel and grab handles get Bronco Red accents.

The package also includes standard wheelbase-length running boards.

A hard-centre rear tire cover, in Wimbledon White and with “BRONCO” lettering in Vermilion Red, and a matte black Ford badge on the tailgate are added to the special model.

The anniversary model also introduces new A-pillar-mounted grab handles, which will be available on all 2026 Broncos.

Ford didn’t provide pricing for the 60th Anniversary package, which will become available in October.
