Customers will be able to choose between front- and all-wheel-drive options.
All indications so far point to the Maverick being only available in a four-door. Ford will differentiate different trim levels with different front fascias. The base price is reportedly lower than $20,000. This is because the truck must compete with the Ranger, which is larger and more powerful.
The Timberline trim level with parts for light off-roading would be at the opposite end of the price range. The Explorer Timberline will feature a Maverick version with tweaks to the bumpers and different all-terrain tires. Also, a different cabin trim. Although it’s not sufficient for rock climbing, it could be used on simple trails.
