Look at the alternatives if you need serious low-range rock-crawling ability today, or you tow heavy. A ladder-frame 4WD may still suit better until the Basecamp lands.
Ford has confirmed local arrivals for the second half of 2027 for both Australia and New Zealand. Pricing and variants come closer to launch.
It is electrified but not a pure EV. It uses Ford's super-hybrid range-extender setup: dual electric motors drive the wheels off a 49 kWh usable battery, and a 1.5L turbo petrol engine acts only as an on-board generator to top the battery up.
Ford quotes a preliminary combined range of 800 to 900 km on the WLTP cycle. Final figures land ahead of the on-sale date.
Up to 6.6 kW when parked, enough for an induction cooktop, a coffee machine, camp lights, photography gear or a laptop setup straight from the battery.
It builds the outdoor kit into the car: an electric Pop-Up Lift Roof for headroom and airflow, a cabin that converts to a sleeping space, a 7.5L warm/cool console and a Wild Kitchen with a fold-down table in the rear swing gate.
Ford has not confirmed local pricing yet. You can register interest with Ford Australia now and we will update this page the moment prices are announced.
The Ford Bronco Basecamp is confirmed for Australia in the second half of 2027, with local pricing still to be announced. The Bronco Basecamp is the first electrified Bronco, and it is coming to Australia in the second half of 2027. Think of it as a proper adventure SUV with a caravan built into its brain: a Pop-Up Lift Roof, a bed that folds out of the cabin, a fridge-slash-warmer in the console and a Wild Kitchen in the tailgate. Under the skin it runs Ford's new super-hybrid setup, which is really a range extender. You drive on the electric motors and a 1.5L turbo petrol engine quietly tops the battery back up, so you get EV smoothness with a combined range Ford reckons will land between 800 and 900 km. Park it up and it becomes an off-grid power station, with up to 6.6 kW on tap to run an induction cooktop, a coffee machine, the lot. Pricing, variants and exact timing come closer to launch.
