2022 Ford Maverick Review
The slick and versatile Ford Maverick reinvents the typical idea of a pickup. It’s style, hybrid performance, and tech are enough to impress everyone you pass on the streets of Auburn, Worcester, and Southbridge, Massachusetts.
At Ira Ford Auburn, we want to help you get to know the best parts about this state-of-the-art pickup truck. That’s why we’ve created this comprehensive 2022 Ford Maverick review. Read on below and give us a call when you’re ready to schedule a test drive!
Trim Level and Powertrain Options
The ride you get from the 2022 Ford Maverick is entirely up to you. It’s just dependent on which of the three trim levels you choose, and which of the two available powertrain options you pair it with.
Your three trim level options include the base-level XL trim, followed by the XLT, and finally the Lariat. Each showcases its own unique set of features and amenities for you to choose from. Although you can’t really go wrong with any option, there’s only one that can perfectly maximize the comfort and overall experience of your rides.
For your powertrain options, it’s a much more simple decision. You’ll either stick with the standard 2.5L full hybrid powertrain, which impresses with an EPA-estimated 42 city/33 highway MPG and a 500-mile range on a single tank. Or, for a more traditional pickup feel, you can opt for the 2.0L EcoBoost gas engine, which dials up the power with 250 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of available torque.
Maverick Capability & Versatility
The fuel efficiency and power of the 2022 Ford Maverick are just the tip of the iceberg. Alongside its game changing performance is a number of features that make it much more versatile than your average pickup.
Some additional features that add to the overall capabilities of the Maverick include:
- 1,500-pound maximum payload
- 4K Tow Package with 4,000-pound tow rating
- FX4 Off-Road Package
- FlexBed™ system
So, let’s dive a bit further into some of these features. First, the FX4 off-road package has much more than meets the eye. Along with enhanced traction and stability control, it incorporates five selectable drive modes to customize your ride, including Normal, Tow Haul, Slippery, Mud & Ruts, and Sand.
One of the most jaw-dropping features of the Maverick is undoubtedly the FlexBed™ system. With this comes a whole slew of possibilities, thanks to added amenities like a multi-position tailgate, 110-volt outlets, 12-volt electrical leads, and up to 10 available tie-downs for more versatile cargo storage.
A Stunning Suite of Technology
To top it all off, the 2022 Ford Maverick comes standard with a brilliant collection of infotainment, connective, and safety technology.
Through an 8-inch LCD touchscreen and the SYNC® 3 system, you’ll have plenty of entertainment options right at your fingertips. This includes both Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ smartphone integration, as well as seamless voice activation and Bluetooth® technology.
Plus, there’s much more where that came from. You’ll also have an available wireless charging pad to keep your phone fully charged, as well as a built-in 4G LTE Wi-Fi® hotspot, courtesy of the standard FordPass Connect™ system.
On the side of standard safety, the Maverick always has your back. That includes an impressive suite of driver assistance features from the Ford Co-Pilot360™ technology, such as:
- Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert
- Lane Departure Warning
- Lane-Keeping Aid
- Lane Centering
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Rear Parking Sensors
There’s even a standard rear-view camera with dynamic guidelines that help make parking even easier.
