The 2024 Ford Maverick is both a useful and fun compact truck, with a great design that makes daily life easier. We love the small touches, like the door pocket that’s perfectly sized for a water bottle. Additionally, this powerful truck is a great towing vehicle, provides smooth performance, and comes with a great infotainment system. Read our guide below to learn more about what makes the Maverick stand out.

The Great Use of Space

The Maverick’s smart storage solutions make the most of its space, starting with rear under-seat storage bins. These bins offer 2.0 cubic feet of volume in the hybrid models, and 2.6 cubic feet of volume in the gas-powered Maverick. This is a great spot for storing your tools or other equipment. There are also smaller storage features inside the truck that prove useful, like the door pocket perfectly sized for a 1.5-liter water bottle.

Outside, you’ll have a truck bed that measures 54.4″ long, and 53.3″ wide. There are six standard tie-downs, which also double as bottle top openers. This space has vertical and horizontal slots, allowing you to use 2×4 or 2×6 boards to create organizational cubes in the back of your truck for enhanced usability.

The Modern Exterior

The Maverick is a sleek-looking truck that fits in on the trail just as well as it does on city streets, with curvy body lines, a Black mesh grille with Black surround, and LED headlights. The compact truck comes in nine exterior colors, including Azure Gray Metallic Tri-Coat, Atlas Blue Metallic, and Cactus Gray.

The Excellent LCD Touchscreen

An eight-inch LCD touchscreen sits in the center stack, where it’s easy to see when you need to change the radio station or check who is calling. Your sound system plays through six well-placed speakers. You can listen to music through your AM/FM stereo, or by streaming audio using your system’s Bluetooth technology.

The Safety Assist Technology

Pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking comes standard. You’ll have an easy-to-use rearview camera, offering enhanced visibility where you need it most. Additionally, you’ll have automatic LED high beams.

The Outstanding Performance

Ford made a major performance change for 2024. They now offer a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine as standard, instead of the hybrid powertrain, which is now an available option. The EcoBoost engine is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and delivers 250 horsepower.

The available hybrid option comes with a 2.5-liter engine paired with an automatic continuously variable transmission. This option gives you a combined 191 horsepower.
