Looks like zone lighting is gone too? or is that an option?

Very nice, I wonder if the hand grabs can be added to a 2025 Ford Bronco Badlands 2dr? I do feel the Goodyears are a downgrade though from the BFG KO2s.

What a smile!
I was feeling envious of the new grab handles but in that photo they really stick out like a sore thumb, I suspect there will be a removal kit available shortly.

I don't like the way they look either. However there is now another mount point for aftermarket vendors to design for that will hopefully provided better access than the current ones on the top rail.

I do like the new wheel too. So you're saying that's the new standard/non-Sasquatch wheel/tire combo? It looks good!


Sadly, Ford has seemingly been dropping Homelink on new products (Mustang recently lost it, and Bronco Sport recently lost it too). I for the life of me can't understand why........it's likely a victim of "connected" vehicles, where they analyze that only a small percentage of buyers are actually using it, therefore they can save 3 cents per car by removing it. I'm on the flip side - continually removing features like that just pisses off the customers that do use them.

I looked at the order guide (the rule, rather than the often-wrong B&P), and it looks like there's no mention of homelink at all. Same for the spot lights in lux package. I'm actually not seeing the spot lights on Raptor listed either, but it likely has them, since that's where they put the required clearance lights.

One thing I haven't liked about the spot lights is that the vehicle has to be in accessory mode to use them, therefore killing the battery even more than just the spot lights.
Yeah, my late MY25 Heritage Edition didn't come with the home link button, either. 🥴

Don't really need adaptive cruise control, but power mirrors would have been nifty.

That’s some serious cost cutting. Ridiculous

What a cutie! Congratulations!

It’s me, the singular user of homelink in both my cars. Dang, I was hoping to order a 2026 and get everything. At least it can be added later.

The turn signals I’m a bit confused on, I would have expected that to be a DOT thing since even base model Focus (Foci?) got them.

But if you look at the video of the 2026 red 2 door basesquatch and 2025 badlands, sure enough the 2026 doesn’t have the integrated turn signals.

Even the little bit you can see on TLO’s build they’re not there. Wild.
Bronco has never had turn signals in the mirrors. I thought they would at debut (which I think the side turn signals should be a required feature), but the clear spot in the mirror housing was always only for the zone lighting.

Looks like zone lighting is gone too? or is that an option?

I looked in the order guide, and it seems that zone lighting is gone altogether for whatever reason.

Homelink is still noted as a feature on 334a lux package in the 2026 build site. If they in fact deleted it, thats blatant false advertising.
The build and price has always been glitchy/inaccurate. The true measure is the order guide, which does not list homelink at all (whether in lux package or standalone).

Shows what I know! I appreciate you pointing this out now before I expected it on an order.

In my MY25 Lux BL zone lighting is there via the screen. (And I have homelink.) And now, thanks to this thread, I’ve discovered I have a heated steering wheel. :cool:

To my untrained eye I would’ve thought this was cactus grey!

Can’t wait to see people with older models trying to retrofit the A Pillar Handle, and people with MY26+ trying to delete them.

In all seriousness, what made you sell the 23 2Door? And why buy “new new” when you could’ve gone certified pre owned or used?
The color is shifty for sure! "New new" because I can spec it out just so (or so I thought lol...)

I do like the new wheel too. So you're saying that's the new standard/non-Sasquatch wheel/tire combo? It looks good!

Yes, this is the new Non-squatch Badlands wheel/tire combo. I just checked the order guide too, and sure enough no mirror lights or Homelink listed.

Still available, just no mirror lights on the front edge and associated physical button. I'll have to try out the bottom mirror lights later.

My ‘24 Wildtrak didn’t have the homelink so I bought one for a ridiculous price of $415 from the dealership. I probably could’ve found one cheaper by waiting, but the point is that you can get one.
Good to know. That is spendy, but honestly, the devil is in the details

@OP. What does the window sticker show as options?
Homelink and Zone lighting not listed but nor were they on the '23. It lists "lux" and calls out some specifics like B&O, ACC, 360 camera.

Thanks all for the info and congratulations! Now if I could only get a full nights sleep 😵💫

Don't forget to update your profile picture....bye bye 2 door. Was it leased?
Do you know how to do this? I just got a new rig and I can’t figure out how to update it! Thanks!

I clicked on my profile on the blue tool bar. Then clicked "account details". Then scrolled down to "avatar" and clicked on the picture to change the photo
