2026 Ford Bronco Raptor
The Highest-Performance Bronco
2026 Ford Bronco Raptor
The 2026 Ford Bronco Raptor is engineered to operate at an entirely different level. A standard 3.0L EcoBoost V6, 37-inch all-terrain tires, HOSS 4.0 suspension with FOX Live Valve dampers, locking front and rear axles, reinforced body hardware and Raptor-specific chassis components make it the most extreme factory Bronco in the 2026 lineup.
What Makes the Bronco Raptor Different?
Raptor isn't simply a Bronco with larger tires. Ford changes the powertrain, suspension, body hardware, steering controls, protection and exterior dimensions to create a specialized high-performance off-road SUV.
The 2026 Ford Bronco Raptor sits at the top of the Bronco performance hierarchy. It starts with equipment from the capable Badlands platform, then adds a Raptor-specific combination of power, suspension travel, damping technology, reinforcement and oversized tires.
Every Raptor comes as a 4-Door 4x4 with a 3.0L EcoBoost V6 and 10-speed automatic transmission. There is no four-cylinder, manual-transmission or 2-door Raptor configuration.
More importantly, Raptor comes standard on 37 x 12.5R17 all-terrain tires and uses Ford's Raptor HOSS 4.0 suspension with FOX Live Valve dampers, putting it well beyond the HOSS 2.0 and HOSS 3.0 systems used elsewhere in the Bronco family.

37-Inch Tires Are Standard
Tire size is one of the easiest ways to understand just how different Bronco Raptor is from the rest of the lineup.
Standard Raptor Setup
- 37 x 12.5R17 All-Terrain Tires
- Matching 37-Inch Spare Tire
- High-Coverage Fender Flares
- Reinforced Swing Gate
Why 37s Matter
The larger tire diameter helps provide additional ground clearance and obstacle capability while also contributing to Raptor's much wider, more aggressive stance.
Unlike Badlands and Stroppe, where 35-inch tires represent the upper-level factory configuration, Bronco Raptor comes standard with 37s.
Raptor HOSS 4.0 with FOX Live Valve Dampers
The Raptor suspension separates this Bronco from even the most aggressively configured Badlands and Stroppe models.
HOSS 4.0
Bronco Raptor uses Ford's Raptor HOSS 4.0 suspension system, a Raptor-specific setup designed for aggressive off-road performance.
It is paired with FOX Live Valve dampers rather than the HOSS 2.0/Bilstein setup found on Badlands or the HOSS 3.0 FOX Internal Bypass configuration used by Stroppe.
Front Stabilizer Bar Disconnect
Front Stabilizer Bar Disconnect is standard, allowing additional front suspension articulation when conditions demand it.
Combined with locking front and rear axles and the 4.7 final drive ratio, Raptor's drivetrain is designed to complement the specialized suspension rather than simply relying on horsepower.

2026 Bronco Raptor vs. Stroppe Edition
Both are serious performance Broncos, but Raptor takes the hardware another significant step.
| Feature | Bronco Raptor | Stroppe Edition |
|---|---|---|
| Engine | 3.0L EcoBoost V6 | 2.7L EcoBoost V6 |
| Transmission | 10-Speed Automatic | 10-Speed Automatic |
| Body Style | 4-Door | 4-Door |
| Standard Tire Size | 37-Inch | 35-Inch |
| Suspension | Raptor HOSS 4.0 | HOSS 3.0 |
| Damper Technology | FOX Live Valve | FOX Internal Bypass |
| Front Stabilizer Disconnect | Standard | Standard |
| Front & Rear Locking Axles | Standard | Standard |
| Heavy-Duty Full Bash Plates | Standard | Badlands-Based Protection |
| Reinforced Swing Gate | Standard | — |
| Raptor-Specific Body Hardware | Yes | No |
The Bronco Stroppe Edition is an excellent choice for drivers who want standard V6 power, HOSS 3.0, 35-inch tires and distinct Baja-inspired styling. Raptor goes farther with its 3.0L engine, HOSS 4.0, FOX Live Valve dampers, 37-inch tires and Raptor-specific body and chassis hardware.
Who Should Buy a Bronco Raptor?
Bronco Raptor is for the buyer who isn't looking for the most sensible Bronco configuration—they're looking for the most capable and specialized factory Bronco available.
Its combination of 37-inch tires, 3.0L EcoBoost V6, HOSS 4.0, FOX Live Valve dampers, locking axles, heavy-duty protection and reinforced Raptor-specific hardware puts it in a category beyond the normal Bronco trim hierarchy.
If your priorities lean toward maximum factory off-road performance, aggressive stance and Raptor-specific engineering, this is the Bronco built around those priorities from the beginning.
