All figures in pounds, from the Ford 2026 RV & Trailer Towing Guide (v1), Bronco page 40. Hitch: Most 2026 Bronco configurations are rated at 3,500 lb; the Bronco Raptor, with Tow Package 2 as standard, is rated at 4,500 lb. For trailers over 2,000 lb, Ford lists dealer-installed towing equipment as required. Ford rates the hitch receiver at 3,500 lb with 350 lb tongue weight (Raptor 4,500 lb and 450 lb), and publishes no payload or GVWR in its towing guide. Ratings assume a properly equipped vehicle and a trailer with brakes where required by the manufacturer. "n/a" means the manufacturer does not publish that figure in this document.
