The 2026 Ford Bronco is available with a new 60th Anniversary package that gives it a flashier throwback appearance.
Exclusive bits included intricate wheels with retro hubcaps, a special grille, a white-painted roof, and a two-tone leather interior.
The Bronco 60th Anniversary is based on the Outer Banks trim equipped with the off-road-ready Sasquatch package; pricing will be revealed later this year.
When something has 60 years of history, there are a lot of different ways to celebrate it. The 2026 Ford Bronco represents six decades since the original model debuted for the 1966 model year, and as a little birthday gift, the blue-oval brand has introduced a special 60th Anniversary package for its popular off-road-ready mid-size SUV.
The Bronco’s Bday
Based on the Bronco’s Outer Banks trim, complete with the Sasquatch package (35-inch all-terrain tires, front and rear locking diffs, upgraded suspension, etc.), the 60th Anniversary kit gives the modular ute a flashier appearance. Every version has a white-painted hardtop, and it can be paired with matching Wimbledon White paint (same as the OG Bronco) or Ruby Red.

Obviously, no special edition is complete without commemorative callouts, and the Bronco 60th Anniversary has several of them. Take the intricately designed 17-inch wheels painted Gravity Gray, which feature retro hubcaps that resemble their ancestors with Vermilion Red centers that also feature Ford’s famous bucking bronco logo and “1966.”
There are also 60th Anniversary badges on the front fenders, and that theme continues with the Vermilion Red bodyside decals. That distinctive color is also found on the lettering on the heritage-style grille, which matches the wheel color and is only found on this throwback Bronco. The hardcover spare-tire carrier that’s mounted on the back of the SUV is another unique detail, as it sports a white center with red lettering. A set of running boards is also included out of the box.

Inside, the 60th Anniversary package adds an attractive two-tone color scheme. The leather seats feature Ebony outer sections with Alpine inserts, and “60” is debossed in the back of the seat cushions. Alpine contrast stitching is seen throughout the cabin, including on the top of the dashboard. For 2026, the Bronco lineup now offers grab handles on the A-pillars, which will help folks climb in and out of the anniversary edition.
The 2026 Ford Bronco 60th Anniversary has standard four-wheel drive, and customers can choose between the standard 2.3-liter turbo four or the mightier twin-turbo 2.7-liter V-6. Ford says the special edition, along with the rest of the lineup, will be available to order in October. Pricing will be announced sometime before the Bronco’s on-sale date.

Eric Stafford’s automobile addiction began before he could walk, and it has fueled his passion to write news, reviews, and more for Car and Driver since 2016. His aspiration growing up was to become a millionaire with a Jay Leno–like car collection. Apparently, getting rich is harder than social-media influencers make it seem, so he avoided financial success entirely to become an automotive journalist and drive new cars for a living. After earning a journalism degree at Central Michigan University and working at a daily newspaper, the years of basically burning money on failed project cars and lemon-flavored jalopies finally paid off when Car and Driver hired him. His garage currently includes a 2010 Acura RDX, a manual ’97 Chevy Camaro Z/28, and a ’90 Honda CRX Si.
