A special appearance package fused with Clubsport performance. Has it really been 45 years since the quintessential hot hatchback first graced the automotive scene?

2022 Ford Maverick: This Is How It Could Look
Our exclusive renderings show a smooth small truck with F-150 style. By now, it's certainly no secret that Ford is preparing a new compact pickup truck. Leaked images of the tailgate all but confirm it's called Maverick , and more leaked images of the body give us a strong taste of how it will look. We pulled all the leaks together to create a pair of Motor1.com exclusive renderings that should be pretty darned accurate to the forthcoming production version. We previously offered a Maverick rendering from the rear , highlighting the tailgate. This time around our focus is on the front, showcasing the big, bold grille and headlight design that was revealed in a leaked image from Ford's assembly plant in Hermosillo, Mexico.
