The big news today was the official introduction of the 2022 Ford Maverick pickup in North America. A return to the small pickup market for Ford, this will be their first FWD, Unibody, Hybrid, Crew Cab style pickup for this market. Sizewise, it is about the length of a Chrysler 300, so small is a relative term. It will also be Ford's cheapest offering in the US, with a starting price undercutting the EcoSport by a few hundred dollars. The base engine will be a hybrid with a 2.0L Turbo as an option. 4WD is available on the non-hybrid engine. The bed is a small 4.5 foot, but they are saying 6 feet with the tailgate down. It will be built in Mexico, alongside the Bronco Sport. It goes on sale in the Fall. It will compete with the new Hyundai Santa Cruz and Honda Ridgeline.
