Right here’s the most effective look but (by an extended shot) on the upcoming Ford Maverick compact pickup. Considered one of our spy shooters captured two pre-production vehicles working round close to Ford HQ with little or no camouflage in comparison with earlier pictures.
The one truck has its entrance grille completely uncovered, and so are the headlights and taillights. Similar goes for the decrease entrance bumper, decrease rear bumper and roof. If it weren’t for the funky tape and wrapping the place the mattress meets the cab, we’d have a full image of what this truck’s silhouette would appear to be. This truck’s grille is much like that of the leaked picture from January this 12 months, however it does have a special sample. Ford is actually going to supply completely different types for the varied trims obtainable, identical to the F-150.
We’re seemingly taking a look at an off-road-focused trim proper right here, because it’s rocking chunky Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tires. Although its floor clearance appears to be like compromised in entrance with the below bumper spats. The C-shaped headlights are a particular go, and each the scale and form remind of the massive F-150.
The second Maverick spied is pictured simply above. You’ll be able to see that it has bigger wheels which might be extra premium in look versus the off-road-style wheels on the opposite one. Much less sidewall on the Michelin tires is the compromise. We are able to’t see the entrance grille on this second Maverick that’s seemingly a extra luxury-oriented trim, however there’s an excellent likelihood that it’s completely different than the grille on the primary truck.
Earlier spy pictures have proven that the Maverick may get each a torsion beam rear suspension and an unbiased rear suspension, relying on drive configuration. The one we will see right here has an unbiased setup that’s certainly paired with all-wheel drive — there’s the smallest glimpse of a differential again there. That additionally tracks with this being an off-road trim.
We’re excited to see this little pickup totally revealed, and seeing Ford motoring round on this state of camouflage is an efficient indication that it isn’t too distant. Take all of it in, as a result of whereas there’ll nonetheless be extra particulars and lots to be taught within the formal debut, this have a look at the pickup is extremely revealing of what it can finally appear to be.
