# An Electric Ford Bronco Is Coming in 2029: Report

![](<https://www.thedrive.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/09/2022-Bronco-Wildtrak_optional-HOSS_04.jpg>)

If a new forecasted auto industry product map is accurate, the [Ford Bronco](<https://www.thedrive.com/new-cars/2022-ford-bronco-raptor-first-drive-review-it-drives-as-crazy-as-it-looks>) will be going electric before the 2020s are out.

Flagged by the folks at *[Bronco6G](<https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/7th-gen-2030-bronco-coming-end-of-2029-together-with-electric-bronco-ev.60742/>)*, AutoForecastSolutions has released its multi-manufacturer product map that aims to lay out what the North American new car market will look like through the next decade and beyond. There are admittedly quite a few interesting nuggets in there but one of the standouts is a "[Ford](<https://www.thedrive.com/category/ford-news>) Bronco BEV" due out Nov. 2029 and slated to end production in 2036. It's said to be built on a "TE1" platform that'll also apparently underpin future electric versions of the Ranger, Transit, and [F-Series](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/ford-f-150-lightning-begins-us-forest-service-testing>).

Per the same map, this electric Bronco will be offered alongside a seventh-gen gas Bronco marked with the same production start and end dates. Notably, this next-gen gas Bronco will apparently be built on the same T6 platform that underpins the current one. Not all that surprising since genuinely new platforms for soon-to-be-outlawed gas cars are getting rarer every year. So, sort of like how [the new S650 Mustang](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/reported-2024-ford-mustang-gt-window-sticker-shows-no-extra-hp-after-all>) is indeed listed under the same D6 platform as the outgoing S550.

AutoForecastSolutions, by the way, has the new Mustang ending production in April 2029.

Perusing the [full sheet](<https://www.globalautoforecasts.com/afs_pm/addons/ProgramDirNAm.pdf>), there are quite a few other interesting entries, but the electric Ford Bronco is a bit of a standout.

Jeep has already dipped its toes into the electrified off-roader game with the Wrangler 4xe—[a vehicle that recently became the subject of a sizeable recall and stop-sale](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/jeep-recalls-halts-sales-of-wrangler-4xe-for-spontaneous-engine-shutdown>)—but previously announced that it would have [five fully electric offerings by 2025](<https://www.thedrive.com/tech/41455/five-electric-jeeps-are-coming-by-2025>). Presuming one of those to be the Wrangler, this means this theoretical electric Bronco would already be four years behind the draw when it arrives in 2029.
