Ford finally confirms one detail about the reborn 2020 Bronco, but it isn’t exactly earth-shattering news.

We’ve known that Ford is bringing back the Bronco in 2020 for, well, what seems like years now. And yet, the Blue Oval just refuses to give us many clues as to what it’s actually going to be like. Sure, we’ve received a sneak peak at its basic shape. We know that it’s going to be built to conquer off-road trails. And we also know that it’ll likely pack the same 2.3-liter Ecoboost four-cylinder as its platform mate, the Ranger. But now, we actually have a confirmed tidbit concerning the Bronco to pass along – it’s for sure going to come in hybrid form as well.

We know this because Ford CEO Jim Hackett said so during the automaker’s annual shareholder meeting. And, well, this news shouldn’t surprise anyone. After all, Ford is determined to offer a hybrid version of virtually every vehicle they produce going forward. That already includes the all-new 2020 Explorer and Escape, with many more in the works. And of course, Ford is also openly working on building a Mustang-based all-electric SUV. And, as we recently learned, both an F-150 hybrid and all-electric version of their perennial best-seller.
