Ford’s 2026 lineup is built to handle Dallas’ downtown traffic and Texas’ tough terrain. Whether you’re in the market for a Super Duty truck or an eco-friendly hybrid, you’ll find it at Planet Ford Dallas. From the adventurous spirit of the Bronco to the thrilling power behind the Mustang, there’s so much to look forward to this year. Learn more about the 2026 Ford models below, or browse our new vehicle inventory online to see what we have in store.
There’s a reason the F-150 and Super Duty remain favorites among construction crews, ranchers, and tradespeople in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. This year, the 2026 Ford F-150 features a refreshed design with a bolder front end and improved LED lighting. Expect more flexibility across trims, with two-wheel drive (2WD) now available on the King Ranch and Platinum models. New features like the Pro Power Onboard generator and Pro Access Tailgate are practical for job sites or tailgating at AT&T Stadium.
If you’re planning to haul your boat to Lake Ray Hubbard this summer, you’ll appreciate the new SYNC 4 infotainment system with enhanced towing tech. Want a truck that can handle weekend trips to Cedar Hill State Park? The F-150 Tremor adds a Torsen front differential, trail-tuned suspension, and off-road-ready gear so you can tackle just about anything.
For best-in-class strength, look no further than the 2026 Ford Super Duty. The new lineup provides up to 40,000 pounds of towing capacity, with a maximum payload of 8,000 pounds. Choose from four engine options, all paired with Ford’s TorqShift 10-speed automatic transmission. The available 6.7-liter Power Stroke diesel options deliver up to 1,200 lb-ft of torque. That’s more than enough power to haul heavy equipment across job sites in Harrison and Rockwall counties. Whether you opt for the new F-150 or Super Duty, Ford’s new lineup of trucks is built to perform in Dallas’ heat.
Looking for an SUV that can handle carpool and weekend runs through the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve? Ford has you covered with this year’s highly customizable lineup. The 2026 Ford Bronco updates include an extended color palette so you can turn heads while driving around downtown Dallas. Personalize your fender flares, tailgate trim, and mirror caps in matching or contrasting finishes. Premium trims come with even more options. Upgrade to the 60th Anniversary package to unlock a Wimbledon White or Ruby Red hardtop roof.
Of course, the Ford Bronco gets more than just a facelift this year. Choose between a 300-horsepower turbo-four or a 330-horsepower twin-turbo V-6 engine. Both options are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission for smooth power delivery. Available features like beadlock wheels, steel bash plates, and removable doors make it easy to build a Bronco that’s right at home in Texas Hill Country.
Looking for something a little more family-friendly? The 2026 Ford Explorer gets a refresh this year with soft-touch materials and an intuitive 13.2-inch touchscreen. The three-row layout makes traveling to Lake Texoma with the kids more enjoyable, and the available BlueCruise 1.5 lets you relax on those long commutes down I-635. Upgrade to the Tremor trim to unlock bold Electric Spice accents, all-terrain tires, and off-road features that make navigating Waxahachie’s backroads a breeze.
The new Ford EV lineup is giving Dallas drivers more ways to reduce fuel costs without sacrificing performance. So far, the confirmed 2026 Escape Hybrid and Escape Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) are solid options if you’re leaning toward a more efficient vehicle but don’t want to give up gas just yet. EPA estimates come in at approximately 37 miles of all-electric driving for the PHEV model, which is more than enough to run errands around Plano or Richardson.
We expect returning favorites like the F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E to come with major upgrades. Look for better battery performance, faster charging, and improved software integration through FordPass this year. With an expanding network of charging stations near Love Field Airport, NorthPark Center, and Legacy West, there’s never been a better time to own an EV in North Texas.

Co-Pilot360 Assist 2.0 comes standard on more models this year. This suite of safety features includes adaptive cruise control, intersection assist, and expanded blind-spot coverage to make navigating traffic on US-75 less stressful. You’ll also find BlueCruise hands-free driving available across more trims to help reduce fatigue on those long drives from Dallas to Houston. An upgraded SYNC 4 infotainment system comes with real-time navigation updates, wireless smartphone integration, and voice commands, so it’s easy to stay connected on the go. Learn more about Ford’s advanced tech and safety innovations by visiting the Planet Ford Dallas showroom.
The new Ford Mustang stays true to its muscle car roots while integrating bold new colors and sharper body lines for an aerodynamic edge. Dallas drivers can look forward to expanded powertrains this year, including an EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder that gets 315 horsepower. The GT model already comes equipped with a 480-horsepower 5.0-liter V-8, but if you really want to push it to the next level, opt for the track-tuned Dark Horse. This variant can exceed 500 horsepower, making it a showstopper at the next Cars and Coffee event in Plano.
The 2026 Ford Mustang upgrades also include plenty of custom enhancements. Elevate your ride with Brembo brakes or one of the available heritage-inspired FX packages. Want to beat the Texas heat? Tack on a performance cooling system or ventilated seats so you can comfortably cruise down Belt Line Road this summer.
