Standard mechanical features like gas-pressurized shock absorbers, front anti-roll bar, semi-independent rear suspension, and 4-wheel disc brakes with ABS ensure a composed, confident ride whether the bed is loaded or empty.

Inside the cab, the Maverick XLT features intuitive technology designed to keep you connected and informed. Center stage is an impressive 13.2-inch primary touchscreen running SYNC 4, complemented by an 8.0-inch digital and analog gauge display complete with SmartGauge and EcoGuide feedback displays. Wirelessly integrate your smartphone with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smart device mirroring, while the integrated 5G modem mobile hotspot provides fast internet access on the go. Driver confidence comes standard thanks to Ford Co-Pilot360, which includes advanced safety technologies such as BLIS (Blind Spot Information System), Lane-Keeping System, Pre-Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection, Rear Cross-Traffic Braking, and Auto High-Beam headlights.
