2025 Ford Maverick Redesign: What to Expect from the Next-Gen Compact Truck – The Ford Maverick is a compact pickup truck debuted in 2021 as a hybrid-powered vehicle with impressive fuel economy and affordability. The Maverick quickly became a popular choice among truck buyers who wanted a versatile and efficient vehicle for urban and suburban use. But what can we expect from the 2025 Ford Maverick redesign? Here are some possible changes and features that make the next-gen Maverick even better.
What’s New for 2025
The 2025 Ford Maverick is likely to receive a mid-cycle refresh that will update its exterior and interior design, as well as introduce some new options and technologies. The Maverick is already ahead of the curve in its hybrid powertrain and compact size so any changes will be minor and incremental. However, there could be some new colors or trim levels on offer, as well as some improvements to the cabin materials and lighting.
Design: Exterior and Interior
The current Maverick has a distinctive look, combining crossover elements with a classic truck rectangular bed. The front end features C-shaped headlights with a square grille with a horizontal bar that splits the headlights. The rear end has vertical taillights and a tailgate that can be configured differently. The Maverick also has a Flexbed system that allows users to customize the bed with various accessories and storage solutions.
The 2025 Ford Maverick redesign could see changes to the front and rear fascias, such as new headlights, grille, bumper, and taillights. The Maverick could also get new wheel designs and body colors to enhance its appearance. The interior could also get some updates, such as eliminating the blue plastics (Navy Pier) inside for gray or beige neutral tones, revised upholstery, more LED lighting, and a carpet delete option. The Maverick could also get new features, such as a fog light option, a sunroof, and a wireless charging pad.
Powertrain
A basic 2.5-liter hybrid engine with 191 horsepower and 155 lb-ft of torque and an optional 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with 250 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque are available in the current Maverick. FWD and a continuously variable gearbox (CVT) are mated to the hybrid engine. On the other hand, the turbo engine is coupled to either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic gearbox. The turbo engine can tow up to 4,000 pounds, while the hybrid engine gives a fantastic over 40 mpg in the city.
The 2025 Ford Maverick redesign could see some improvements to the powertrain options, such as increasing the power and efficiency of the hybrid engine, adding more gears to the CVT, or introducing a new transmission option for the turbo engine. The Maverick could also get some new performance-oriented models, such as a Raptor version with more than 400 horsepower or a Lightning version with an all-electric powertrain.
Release Date and Price
The 2025 Ford Maverick redesign is expected to debut in late 2024 or early 2025 as a 2025 model-year vehicle. The Maverick is manufactured at Ford’s Hermosillo plant in Mexico, where it shares the production line with the Bronco Sport crossover. The Maverick is expected to continue its production at the same plant for the next generation.
The current Maverick has a starting price of $19,995 for the base XL model, which makes it one of the most affordable trucks on the market. The higher trim levels are XLT and Lariat, which start at $22,280 and $25,490 respectively. The optional turbo engine adds $1,085 to the price, while the all-wheel drive adds another $3,305. The 2025 Ford Maverick redesign could see some slight increases in price due to inflation and new features. Still, it is likely to remain competitive and affordable compared to its rivals.
