Used 2024 Ford Maverick for Sale near Wilmington, NC

The Ford Maverick struck a nerve when it was released, becoming one of the fastest-selling models in the automaker’s lineup. It’s a pickup truck “light,” in that its construction is more like a crossover or passenger car than a rugged, body-on-frame pickup truck. That setup means it's not as outright capable as many pickups, but it also gives the Maverick a better ride quality and more comfortable interior, which makes it a more agreeable daily driver. ## What’s New for the 2024 Ford Maverick Ford is swapping powertrain offerings for 2024, making the hybrid the optional setup and the turbo-four the standard configuration. The truck is otherwise unchanged and remains a hot seller three years after its debut. ## Design The Maverick’s look hasn’t changed since its introduction for the 2022 model year. It remains the friendly-looking compact pickup it’s always been, with rounded headlights flanking a black grille up front. The Tremor variant gets orange accents, a slight lift, and beefier off-road tires, while other trims get more on-road-friendly wheels and tires. The back features a unique asymmetrical design, with the license plate off-center in the rear bumper. ## Powertrain Ford offers two powertrain options for the 2024 Maverick. The entry-level engine is now the 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, which comes standard with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive (FWD). It can also be outfitted with all-wheel drive (AWD). The 2.5-liter hybrid powertrain is now optional, bringing a combined 191 horsepower to the party. It’s paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) and FWD, and Ford will continue only offering FWD with the hybrid. Though it’s not a hardcore off-roader, the Maverick does a decent impression of one with the Tremor package equipped. It gets a ride height increase, skid plates, a twin-clutch rear differential, a heavy-duty transmission cooler, and 17-inch wheels with all-terrain tires. ## Interior The Maverick’s cabin is utilitarian but comfortable, offering seating for five people. Cloth or synthetic leather upholstery is available, and the front buckets offer good support and padding. Ford’s cost-cutting measures are apparent inside, where the Maverick has plenty of hard plastics and a budget feel overall. ## Technology Ford equips an 8-inch touchscreen for all Maverick models, which brings Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. Upgrades include a B&O premium stereo system, wireless phone charging, and SiriusXM radio. ## Safety The Maverick is available with a range of advanced driver aids that include automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warnings, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and more. The 2024 Maverick hasn’t been crash-tested yet, and earlier model years earned mixed results in testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). ## Pricing The base 2024 Ford Maverick XL starts at $23,400 before options, destination, and taxes. The XLT starts at $26,315, and the top Lariat at $34,855. Stepping up to the hybrid powertrain adds $1,500 to the price.
