What Is the 2027 Ford Bronco Filson?
The 2027 Ford Bronco Filson is a new Bronco model built with Filson, the Seattle outdoor brand. Ford describes it as a rugged premium 4x4 that keeps Bronco off-road hardware but adds a quieter cabin, better materials, more comfort, and Filson-specific storage and trim.
This is not just an appearance package. The Filson gets a 3.0L EcoBoost V6 shared with Bronco Raptor, standard Sasquatch hardware, Fox internal-bypass shocks, front and rear lockers, seven G.O.A.T. Modes, Trail Turn Assist, and Trail 1-Pedal Drive.

How Much Will the 2027 Ford Bronco Filson Cost?
Ford is targeting a starting MSRP in the mid-$70,000s. Final pricing has not been published yet.
That puts the Filson above a normal Badlands build and below Bronco Raptor territory. That gap is where this model has to make sense. Buyers are paying for the 3.0L V6, standard Sasquatch hardware, Fox shocks, a much nicer cabin, and Filson-specific details.
Bronco Forge would not judge the Filson by the badge or interior alone. At this price, the hardware has to carry the value. The 3.0L, lockers, 35s, Fox shocks, and added comfort are what make the price easier to defend.
When Can You Order the 2027 Ford Bronco Filson?
Ford said in its latest third-quarter update that Bronco Filson orders will open later in October 2026. Vehicles are planned to reach showrooms in early 2027.
That is newer than the original launch timing, which only said orders would open in fall 2026. We would wait for the full 2027 order guide before treating any dealer-built configuration sheet as final.
What Engine Does the 2027 Bronco Filson Use?
The Bronco Filson uses a twin-turbo 3.0L EcoBoost V6 shared with the Bronco Raptor. Ford says the Filson gets tuning made for this model.
Ford has not published the Filson's final horsepower or torque numbers yet. That is an important correction because the 418-horsepower figure belongs to the current Bronco Raptor. The Filson uses the same engine family, but Ford has not said it makes the same output.
Bronco Forge likes this engine choice. A premium Bronco in the mid-$70,000s should feel different from a normal 2.7L build. Giving the Filson the 3.0L gives it a real mechanical reason to exist.
Does the Bronco Filson Have the Same Engine as the Bronco Raptor?
It shares the Raptor's 3.0L EcoBoost V6, but the tune is different. Ford calls the Filson calibration application-specific.
That means you should not call the Filson a standard-width Raptor. The engine is related, but the rest of the vehicle has a different goal. Raptor is built around high-speed off-road performance, a wider body, 37-inch tires, and much more aggressive suspension hardware. Filson is built around off-road ability plus comfort, quietness, and premium materials.
Does the 2027 Bronco Filson Come With Sasquatch?
Yes. Every Bronco Filson comes with the Sasquatch Package.
Ford lists 35-inch rugged-terrain tires and front and rear electronic locking differentials as standard. The Filson also gets Fox internal-bypass shocks tuned for this model.
This matters because the Filson is not asking you to choose between luxury and core trail hardware. The lockers, tire size, and suspension are already there.
Bronco Forge thinks that is the right call. A premium special model with a Filson badge would feel weak if buyers had to add Sasquatch just to get the serious hardware.
What Suspension Does the Bronco Filson Use?
The Filson gets high-performance Fox shocks with internal bypass technology. Ford says the shocks were tuned for the Filson to balance off-road control with a smoother road ride.
That is a better fit for this model than using a hard-edged setup built only for speed. The Filson is meant to cover long road miles, get into rough terrain, and still feel calm on the way home.
Ford also gives the Filson Trail Turn Assist and Trail 1-Pedal Drive. The Terrain Management System includes seven G.O.A.T. Modes: Normal, Eco, Sport, Slippery, Baja, Off-Road, and Rock Crawl.
How Quiet Is the Bronco Filson?
Ford calls it the quietest Bronco cabin it has built. The company says improved airflow, acoustic glass, and better seals cut perceived wind noise by nearly 20% compared with the 2021 Bronco.
That is a big deal on this platform. Wind and road noise are two of the biggest tradeoffs that come with removable doors, removable roof panels, upright glass, and off-road tires.
Bronco Forge sees this as one of the strongest reasons to buy the Filson. Plenty of Bronco owners want real trail hardware but spend most of their miles on pavement. Making the cabin quieter improves the truck every single day.
What Interior Features Does the Bronco Filson Get?
The cabin is where the Filson separates itself most from a normal Bronco.
Ford lists perforated quilted leather, woven seat trim inspired by Filson Rugged Twill, a leather-wrapped dash, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and brass accents on the steering wheel bezel and G.O.A.T. Modes dial.
The Filson also gets ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and an upgraded B&O audio system. A digital rearview mirror with its own washer helps when cargo blocks the normal rear view.
Power running boards deploy for easier entry and tuck away when they are not needed. That makes more sense here than fixed steps that can hang low on a trail.
What Are the Bronco Filson Saddle Bags and Storage Features?
Ford and Filson built removable storage bags into the cabin. Door-mounted saddle bags come with the Filson, and optional cargo-area bags use water- and dirt-resistant materials.
The bags can be removed from the truck and carried with you. Ford says the compartments can hold gear such as first-aid supplies, camera equipment, fly-fishing gear, and other trail items.
This is one of the Filson touches we like because it has a job. The best branded special editions use the partner's ideas to improve the vehicle. They do not stop at logos and stitching.
What Colors Does the 2027 Bronco Filson Come In?
Ford lists Field Green Metallic as a Bronco Filson-exclusive color. Other available colors include Marsh Gray, Avalanche Gray, Desert Sand, Shadow Black, and Oxford White.
The First Edition gets its own Iron Sands Copper Metallic paint. That color is tied to the launch model and is one of the easiest ways to spot a First Edition.
The Filson also gets a unique grille, special BRONCO lettering, painted wheel arches, painted mirror caps, and unique trail sight tie-downs.
What Is the Bronco Filson First Edition?
The First Edition marks the launch of the Ford and Filson partnership. Filson says it is limited to 2,500 units in North America.
It gets exclusive Iron Sands Copper Metallic paint, a unique fender badge, a serialized console badge, and Filson-inspired cargo bags.
That is the version most likely to attract collectors, but Bronco Forge would not pay a huge markup just for the serialized badge. The regular Filson already has the hardware and cabin changes that make this model worth caring about.
How Does the Bronco Filson Compare With the Bronco Raptor?
The Raptor is still the more extreme off-road model. It uses a wider body, 37-inch tires, Raptor-specific suspension, and the full 418-horsepower version of the 3.0L EcoBoost.
The Filson uses 35-inch tires, a narrower standard Bronco body, and a Filson-specific tune for the 3.0L. It puts more attention on cabin comfort, noise reduction, storage, and premium materials.
If your goal is speed, huge tires, and the most aggressive factory Bronco, buy the Raptor. If you want a Bronco that is easier to live with every day but still has lockers, 35s, Fox shocks, and the 3.0L, the Filson makes more sense.
We cover the two in more detail in our Bronco Filson vs Bronco Raptor comparison.
Will Current Bronco Parts Fit the 2027 Bronco Filson?
Some parts should carry over, but Bronco Forge will not mark current parts as Filson-compatible until fitment is confirmed.
The Filson uses Bronco hardware we already know, including Sasquatch, but it also adds power running boards, a 3.0L engine, Filson-specific body details, and its own suspension tuning. Those changes can matter for bumpers, sliders, skid plates, suspension parts, wiring, and anything near cooling or sensors.
Interior accessories and roof products may be easier carryovers, but we still want real fitment data before listing them for this model.
The old version of this article said every 4-door Sasquatch-compatible part would fit the Filson. We are removing that claim. It was too broad.
Is the 2027 Bronco Filson Worth It?
Bronco Forge thinks the Filson is one of the better special Broncos Ford has made because it adds real hardware and solves a real problem.
Most premium off-road trims lean too far in one direction. They either add leather and badges without enough mechanical change, or they chase extreme off-road performance and become louder, wider, and harder to live with every day.
The Filson lands in a better spot. It has the 3.0L V6, standard Sasquatch, lockers, 35s, Fox shocks, and real trail tools. Then Ford made the cabin quieter and more comfortable instead of turning it into another Raptor.
We would choose a Filson over a heavily optioned 2.7L Bronco if the price gap stays reasonable. The 3.0L and quieter cabin are upgrades you cannot copy as cleanly later.
We would still choose a Raptor for high-speed desert use and maximum factory capability. We would choose a Badlands if the goal is getting strong trail hardware for less money.
The Filson makes the most sense for the owner who wants one Bronco to do everything: commute, road-trip, carry gear, and still handle serious trails without feeling like a stripped-down off-road toy.
