Does the Ford Bronco Have a Sunroof/Moonroof?

No, and it's not an oversight. The Bronco's removable hard top and soft top are Ford's answer to open-air driving instead of a sunroof, and building a power sunroof into a top designed to come off entirely would need engineering Ford hasn't taken on. Here's what's available if open-air light is what you're after.

Why the Bronco Skips a Sunroof

The Bronco's whole roof comes off, in sections on the hard top or as a full fold-back on the soft top. Ford Bronco owners have asked for something like Jeep's power-retractable Sky One-Touch top, and the consistent answer from the community and from how Ford has built the truck is that a power sunroof isn't part of the current lineup on any trim or package. A sunroof solves a problem the Bronco's removable roof already solves differently.

The Removable Panels Do the Job Instead

On a hard-top Bronco, the front two roof panels come off by hand, giving an open-air view without removing the whole roof or leaving the truck without weather protection over the rear seats and cargo area. This is the Bronco's built-in version of what a sunroof does on other SUVs, just without the glass or the motor.

Aftermarket Clear Top Panels

For owners who want the sunroof look and feel without removing panels entirely, aftermarket companies sell clear or tinted replacement panels that install in place of the factory front hard top pieces. Putco's Element Sky View is the most established option for 4-door hard tops, a tinted polycarbonate panel that installs in place of the OEM panels in minutes without tools. Newer entrants, including a panoramic tinted glass option from Turn Offroad expected in early 2026, are bringing more choices to this category.

Don't Confuse This With the Bronco Sport

The smaller Bronco Sport is a different vehicle with a fixed, non-removable roof, and it does offer a power moonroof as an option on select trims. If a listing or forum post mentions a Bronco moonroof, it's worth checking whether it's talking about the Sport rather than the full-size Bronco.

FAQ

Does the Ford Bronco have a sunroof?

No. No trim or package includes a factory sunroof or moonroof. The removable hard top panels and soft top are Ford's alternative for open-air driving.

Does the Bronco Sport have a moonroof?

Yes, as an option on select trims. This is a different vehicle from the full-size Bronco, with a fixed roof that doesn't remove.

Can I get a clear sunroof-style panel for my Bronco?

Yes, through aftermarket companies. Putco's Element Sky View is a direct-fit tinted panel that replaces the factory front roof panels on a 4-door hard top.

Is Ford planning to add a sunroof to the Bronco?

Nothing has been announced. The truck's removable-roof design would require significant re-engineering to add a power sunroof, which hasn't been part of any Ford update to the lineup so far.

Do the removable panels leak like a sunroof might?

The factory panels are designed to seal when installed. Aftermarket clear panels vary by brand; some owners report more wind noise than the factory panel, so checking reviews for a specific product is worth doing before buying.
