Available Ford Bronco Soft Top Roof Options
The 2026 Ford Bronco comes standard with a black vinyl soft top that is easy to remove when you want to enjoy the open air.

Retractable - Full Twill Soft Top — Starting at $3,200
The Retractable – Full Twill Soft Top is a fully-enclosed, all-season soft top that will replace the vinyl soft top with a softer option. A Sunrider® feature allows you to easily open the soft top from the inside of your Ford Bronco and the no-zipper windows are easy to remove for an open-air ride. This roof option is available on Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, Badlands, Stroppe Edition, and Heritage Edition models.
Retractable - Front Row Twill Soft Top — Starting at $1,790
Do you like the best of both worlds?

This roof option is available for Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, Badlands, Stroppe Edition, and Heritage Edition models.
Soft Canvas Bimini Soft Top — Starting at $470
Are you looking for an easy to remove and easy to stow soft top?

This soft top roof option is available for Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, Badlands, Stroppe Edition, and Heritage Edition models.
Mesh Shade Bimini Soft Top — Starting at $430

This soft roof option is available for Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks, Badlands, Stroppe Edition, and Heritage Edition models.
