In fact, it's had a problem keeping up with demand. Customers love the Blue Oval's smallest pickup and the order books haven't slowed down much since its launch in 2022. Ford updated it for 2025 anyway, taking customer advice to heart to make an already beloved truck even better while starting at $27,890 out the door. Visually, the 2025 Ford Maverick isn't that much different from the model it replaces but its updates are significant enough to make customers want to trade their leases in early. New angular headlights replace the old block-shaped ones, the redesigned grille ditches the old horizontal bar for a cleaner look, and the lower front fascia has more trim to make it pop. Higher trim levels also get new LED headlights and 19-inch wheel options. A few new colors are available, too, such as Velocity Blue and Eruption Green (yay, more greens). ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Many customers will feel heard when they see the new interior improvements. The biggest change is to the infotainment screen—a relatively massive 13.2-inch display, which Ford claims is the largest in its class. The new screen replaces both the old 8-inch screen and the oddly shaped and sized cubby that sat next to it. Maverick forums were filled with customers who felt like the latter was wasted space and many struggled to find much use in it. But it's gone now, replaced with Ford's most advanced Sync 4 system, which is standard on all Mavericks. That new infotainment system is coupled with a new digital gauge cluster that replaces the old analog gauges. Ford added a few more customer requests to the cabin, including wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as an optional 360-degree camera and Pro Trailer Hitch Assist with Pro Trailer Backup Assist. The latter two are probably more helpful on the Maverick than on any other Ford truck, as most Maverick owners aren't as used to towing as, say, [Super Duty]() owners. Both are standard on Lariat and Tremor trims. Standard on all Mavericks is Ford Co-Pilot360, which comes with active safety features like automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, and automatic LED high beams. Higher trim levels get adaptive cruise control with lane-centering, stop-and-go, and speed limit sign-recognition technology. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() However, the biggest customer request is the addition of all-wheel drive for the hybrid Maverick. One of the current Mavericks' biggest selling points is the 2.5-liter hybrid powertrain's 42 mpg in the city, but it's always been limited to front-wheel drive. Now, customers can spec the Maverick hybrid with all-wheel drive and still get 40 mpg city. Additionally, the hybrid is now also available with the 4K Towing Package, which bumps its max trailer capacity up to 4,000 pounds thanks to an updated CVT. The current Ford Maverick's [Tremor Off-Road Package]() has now become its own model, [just like on F-150](). It's essentially the same as the old Maverick with the Tremor Package—the off-road-tuned suspension, skid plates, advanced 4WD system, twin-clutch rear differential, 4WD lock, unique wheels, and all-terrain tires—just with some added unique looks. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Ford was wise to listen to customer feedback and quickly improve its incredibly popular truck. When you have a hit on your hands, you don't take it for granted. And the new Maverick keeps the good parts of its recipe while improving on its shortcomings. Now if only Ford would replace the rotary shifter with a lever, customers might not have anything else to complain about. Orders for the 2025 Maverick open August 1. *Got tips?

His love of cars began when he was just a kid playing Gran Turismo 3, grinding out enough race wins with a Mazda Miata to save up for an in-game RUF 911. That passion for small, lightweight sports cars drove his desire to learn more about the industry, get his hands on as many cars as he could, and bring those experiences to life on the page. He cut his teeth writing about BMWs, Volkswagens, and Audis, mostly, and has owned far too many of each. He’s on his fourth 3 Series sedan, but all of his old, cheap German cars have forced him to learn more about car maintenance than his mechanical capability can handle. Too many late nights have been spent scrambling to get a car running by morning so he could get to work. For some reason, he never seems to learn that old Bimmers probably aren’t the best daily drivers. But he loves more than just old German cars. He’ll gladly drive and discuss anything with four (or even three) wheels. Cars aren’t his only passions, though. Nico is also a big nerd and loves movies, video games, comic books, and cares far too much about the New York Giants. So don’t be surprised if you see football references or dumb, obscure movie quotes in any of his car reviews. ### Author social links [Instagram]() [LinkedIn]()
