Anthony Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) ...or they will share similar design cues....the wheel wells / fender flares dont look the same as the design render so maybe the render is the Ranger as well. PS: That is one UGLY grille unless it is missing an insert. The fenders on the Maverick spyshot look just like the current Ranger's but has a non-clamshell hood much like the next-gen Ranger render above.

Remember PD said Maverick offers a bit of a peek at the NG Ranger. I don't know if he's right or not as I haven't seen either one but it seems logical at least. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzcat Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Hard to tell from just one photo taken from a low angle but I like the proportion and stance of the truck. This looks like a more serious effort than Fiat Toro... wonder if Ford will try to sell it outside the Americas. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Yeah it really does look like a pickup instead of a wannabe pickup. Color me impressed. Going by what I see of the grill on the Maverick and the Explorer FX4 or whatever they are calling it and seeing the NG Ranger grill, they are missing chrome parts to me at least. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, the regular Ranger model may not have those big boxy fender flares (ie: look more like the fenders on the current Ranger) and make the entire design look even more like the Maverick than we initially thought.

Esto parece un esfuerzo más serio que el de Fiat Toro ... me pregunto si Ford intentará venderlo fuera de América. south america for sure, this type of pick up is sold a lot and with Mexico there are commercial agreements, it will not pay tariffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomcat68 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 It's starting to look much better than I expected. That must be the base model, but I'm hoping that adding doors doesn't cost too much.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pffan1990 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Impressive! I been trying to envision what it would look like as 'truckish' but I like what I'm seeing here. PremierDrum did say that Ford Trucks was involved with this project. So it would indeed be 'Built Ford Tough' even if front drive-based unibody and it gives a nice truckish vibe. It would likely have good payload and towing figures for its class too. Impressive, can't wait until official reveal and more info is released.

Dequindre Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 The Maverick will be a huge hit in areas with snowy climates. Some people buy larger trucks or SUVs specifically for winter-duty. The Maverick looks like it will be an affordable way to deal with winter snow without much sacrifice in terms of fuel economy or interior space. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to be the one with a bucket of cold water, but... The render isn't of a Ranger Raptor. Those are badge appliques, not functional vents. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
