Some cars depreciate much faster than others for a multitude of reasons, but it all boils down to how desirable the specific model is. If a large number of people want to buy a used model of a particular vehicle, then that car will hold its value well. If the pool of secondhand buyers is slim, however, then supply will outstrip demand, and values will plummet as sellers are forced to drop prices in order to tempt buyers.
The Ford Bronco retaining so much of its value on the used market should come as no surprise. The interior is well-equipped, and its wide range of powertrains can suit an equally wide range of buyers. Everything from the base model’s 300-horsepower EcoBoost four-cylinder to the 418-horsepower EcoBoost V6 from the Raptor model we reviewed in 2023 could be motivating used Bronco sales. Whether you’re after around-town efficiency or sand-dune dominance, this car is equipped for the job.
Other Bronco highlights include its numerous Wrangler-esque configurations. It can be spec’d with two or four doors, soft or hard tops, and completely removable roof panels. This exclusive personality likely keeps Bronco prices sitting pretty even after three years (or more) on the road.
