AMP Research PowerStep Vision Smart Running Boards | 2021-2026 Bronco 4-Door

AMP Research PowerStep Vision Smart Electric Running Boards for 2021-2026 Ford Bronco 4-Door & 2019-2026 Ford Ranger Crew Cab

The AMP Research PowerStep Vision is the most advanced power-deploying running board system available for the Ford Bronco and Ford Ranger platform. Built upon AMP Research's proven PowerStep SmartSeries technology, PowerStep Vision combines automatic power-deploying side steps with a full-length integrated LED glow lighting system that transforms vehicle accessibility, safety, and appearance. Because the system features customizable RGB lighting, smartphone app control, automatic deployment, and premium SmartSeries functionality, it delivers a complete upgrade for enthusiasts seeking next-generation convenience and visual impact.

Unlike traditional fixed running boards that reduce ground clearance, the PowerStep Vision automatically extends when a door is opened and retracts when closed. This preserves maximum off-road clearance while providing a secure stepping surface exactly when needed. The integrated full-length LED light strip illuminates the step surface at full brightness during deployment and then transitions into a customizable accent lighting mode that enhances the vehicle's appearance both on and off the trail.

According to AMP Research engineering standards, modern vehicle access systems should combine durability, technology, and ease of use. The PowerStep Vision accomplishes this through weather-sealed electric motors, military-grade aluminum construction, corrosion-resistant hardware, integrated Bluetooth connectivity, and SmartSeries software integration. The result is an intelligent running board system engineered for daily driving, overlanding, towing, and harsh weather operation.

For Bronco and Ranger owners building premium overland vehicles, family adventure rigs, or fully customized off-road builds, the PowerStep Vision provides a distinctive blend of functionality and personalization. Through the AMP Research SmartSeries mobile application, users can customize LED colors, control lighting behavior, activate manual step deployment, and manage advanced system settings directly from compatible iOS and Android devices.

Why PowerStep Vision is AMP Research's Most Advanced Running Board System

The PowerStep Vision represents the evolution of automatic running board technology. While traditional power steps focus solely on accessibility, Vision integrates intelligent lighting, smartphone connectivity, and advanced customization into a single OEM-quality system.

The full-length LED glow light creates a premium appearance while also improving visibility when entering or exiting the vehicle in low-light conditions. Once deployed, the step receives full illumination before transitioning to customizable accent lighting that can be adjusted to match personal preferences and vehicle styling themes.

For lifted Broncos, overlanding builds, and premium Ranger projects, the PowerStep Vision delivers the convenience of automatic deployment, the durability expected from AMP Research, and the visual impact of fully integrated SmartSeries lighting technology.
