2024 Ford Maverick: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The 2024 Ford Maverick’s biggest change is revised powertrain availability across the XL, XLT, and Lariat lineup. It is otherwise a light update, with no redesign or styling refresh, though Lariat gains several previously optional features as standard.
About the 2024 Ford Maverick
1st generation, third model year; final year before the 2025 mid-cycle refresh.
Ford positions the Maverick as a compact, easy-to-drive pickup for everyday commuting, home projects and light recreation rather than heavy-duty work. Its crew cab seats five, while the 4.5-foot FLEXBED uses built-in slots and tie-down locations to organize cargo. Compared with larger pickups, the Maverick emphasizes maneuverability, useful bed space and car-like comfort, with fuel-saving hybrid and stronger turbocharged configurations represented in the range.
The 2024 Maverick remains a compact crew-cab truck with a 4.5-foot bed. XL focuses on essentials, XLT adds useful everyday touches such as a power-locking tailgate and in-bed storage, and Lariat brings heated synthetic-leather seats, premium audio, wireless phone charging, and expanded driver assistance.
What changed, by category
Powertrain
The 250-hp 2.0-liter turbo engine and eight-speed automatic expanded across XL, XLT, and Lariat, with front-wheel-drive turbo versions joining the lower trims. The 191-hp hybrid with its smooth, gearless automatic remained represented on all three trims with front-wheel drive.
Safety
Lariat made several previously optional driver aids standard, including adaptive cruise control, lane assistance, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alerts.
Tech
Lariat gained more previously optional equipment as standard, including navigation, premium audio, satellite radio, remote start, wireless phone charging, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.

2024 Ford Maverick
(183 reviews)
“I was looking for a vehicle that I could handle easily as a smaller person but still allowed me plenty of room to move items from one place to another. It's the perfect size for me.”
“We love this truck. It is fuel efficient and fun to drive. Consider poor turning radius—sound system/sources are confusing and satellite does not work everywhere. Sorry no CD option. Other than basic radio, you have to pay for music, etc. It is a problem for those of us who get out in the mountains to explore.”
