The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport delivers year-round adventure capability for Annapolis Valley families who hike Cape Split in summer and navigate snow-covered coastal drives in winter. With available Sasquatch packages, seven G.O.A.T. modes, and standard four-wheel drive, this compact SUV handles everything from Blomidon Provincial Park trails to foggy Highway 101 commutes.
Every 2025 Bronco Sport comes standard with four-wheel drive. The system continuously monitors traction and adjusts torque distribution to maintain grip on slippery surfaces. Five G.O.A.T. modes (Goes Over Any Type of Terrain) come standard across all models:
The Badlands model adds two additional modes:
The Advanced 4x4 system on the Badlands trim features a Twin Clutch Rear-Drive Unit that can send torque to a single rear wheel when the other three wheels have no traction. This capability helps when one wheel encounters mud, sand, or snow while the others maintain grip.
Ford offers two Sasquatch packages for 2025:
The most capable off-road Bronco Sport configuration includes:
This package handles Cape Split's rocky sections, Blomidon cliff trails, and winter forest roads with confidence.
A more refined Sasquatch option for families who want off-road capability without the Badlands' full ruggedness:
This package suits families who take weekend adventures to Cape Split but prioritize daily comfort on Kentville-to-Wolfville commutes.
Standard on Big Bend, Heritage, Free Wheeling, and Outer Banks models, this engine delivers 180 horsepower and 200 lb-ft of torque. Fuel consumption averages 9.3 L/100 km city and 7.9 L/100 km highway, making it efficient for Valley daily driving.
This engine provides adequate power for most Nova Scotia driving conditions, including Highway 101 merging and Cape Split trailhead access roads.
Standard on the Badlands model, this turbocharged engine produces 250 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. The extra power helps when climbing steep Cape Split trails, towing small camping trailers, or powering through deep snow on forest service roads.
The Badlands configuration can tow up to 1,225 kg (2,700 lbs) when properly equipped with the Class II Trailer Tow Package. Big Bend and Outer Banks models tow up to 998 kg (2,200 lbs).
The 2025 Bronco Sport features a 13.2-inch touchscreen with SYNC 4, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, and a new 12.3-inch digital instrument panel. The large touchscreen displays trail maps, weather conditions, and vehicle angle information useful for off-road driving.
Six USB-C ports throughout the cabin keep devices charged on long drives to Cape Breton or day trips to Fundy National Park. The available wireless charging pad in the centre console handles phones without requiring cables.
The 360-Degree Camera system includes Trail View, which activates in Off-Road and Rally G.O.A.T. modes. This camera displays width-accurate tire overlays, helping you navigate narrow Cape Split trail sections where rocks line the path.
Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist+ comes standard and includes:
The Reverse Brake Assist feature watches for objects, vehicles, or people behind you while backing up. If the system detects a potential collision and you don't brake in time, it can help stop the vehicle.
Front parking sensors beep to alert you when approaching obstacles in tight trailhead parking areas or when navigating crowded Kentville parking lots after snowstorms.
The 2025 Bronco Sport features:
The Safari-style roof provides extra headroom for tall passengers and creates cargo space for two bikes standing upright when equipped with the available interior bike rack.
New for 2025, the Bronco Sport is offered in Velocity Blue Metallic and Ruby Red Metallic tinted clear coat colours.
The Bronco Sport handles the gravel access road to Cape Split without difficulty. Ground clearance accommodates rocks and ruts, while the 360-Degree Camera with Trail View helps navigate tight sections where trail edges drop off.
Roof rails and fender tie-downs secure hiking packs, camping gear, or kayaks for multi-day Fundy Shore adventures. The Safari-style roof provides room for muddy boots and wet gear after rainy Cape Split hikes.
Standard four-wheel drive grips snow-covered Kentville streets during January storms. The Slippery G.O.A.T. mode adjusts stability controls when ice forms on Highway 101 between New Minas and Wolfville.
Heated front seats (standard on Outer Banks and Badlands) and available heated steering wheel warm up quickly on −15°C February mornings. The power liftgate opens with a button press, making grocery loading easier when wearing winter gloves.
Auto high-beam headlamps automatically dim when detecting oncoming traffic through Annapolis Valley fog. The Lane-Keeping System helps maintain position when fog reduces visibility on Highway 101 between Kentville and Bridgetown.
Front and rear parking sensors assist when backing out of foggy Kentville parking spots where visibility drops below 30 metres during coastal weather systems rolling in from the Bay of Fundy.
