2025 Ford Maverick: Full Review!

[@jeedwards1981]

So glad I got a 22. I despise HVAC controls in a touchscreen and no physical buttons.

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

That’s understandable

[@jonathonvince561]

Yup glad I got a 24. Physical knobs are best.

[@kubeanie18]

Lol not even close to a deal breaker

[@beeboodu1]

@@kubeanie18why so?

[@davidalexispr]

Noticed the shift knob on the tremor doesn’t have the L button but now has a M button. Does it have paddle shifters?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Yes it does :)

[@ianclark6947]

Glad i got my 23 Tremor. The orange grille line flows way better into the headlights and i like my physical buttons and terrain control options button

It’s been a while since I’ve been car shopping. I’ve had dash cam in the last 10 years and I’d never get on the road without it. What dash cam do you recommend for this vehicle? I’m interested in a single unit that captures both front and rear view. I don’t like the kind that you have to run another camera for the rear viewing. Also, interested on the kind that has parking features that doesn’t drain your car battery. I’m on my second dashcam “COXPAL” but it has issues with randomly turning off. Something compact and not bulky that gets in the way of your driving views. Keep up the good work gentlemen. Thank you!!!

[@michaelstringer1840]

Here’s a question is there a awd hybrid option for the tremor? Personally I wish they kept the hard button for controls I’m not a fan of going through the screen to set stuff.

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

It is not no. The 2.0 is the only motor you can get with the Tremor. I would agree with that as well

[@Board.Dad.Woodworking]

I have the 2024 XLT hybrid. I would love the 4k tow package awd on the hybrid. I thought I didn't care for the orange accents, but after seeing the blue, I think I prefer orange. I wish they did grey plastic in the interior instead of keeping the blue. Just something more neutral. I also love the new screen and 360 camera is awesome (my wife's Kia Sedona has it and it's a game changer) but no more physical AC controls! I would rather have physical climate controls than stereo controls tbh. I use my steering wheel controls most of the time for volume and skipping songs, but probably adjust my climate once an hour and don't want to close my maps to adjust the temp or fan speed.

[@taejinkae]

All these 2025 videos make me glad I got a 23 xlt hybrid

[@jeffreyperez2437]

Does the 25' have auto stop brake assist when parking? front and rear? I thought my 24' tremor did and learned the hard way with garage barrier cables. My titan had this feature, so I got used to it.

[@genevostok]

Does any 2025 model have soft touch or fabric or something other than straight plastic for the sides of the doors? A big hold back for me on a Maverick was that it simply didn't look durable enough with that cheap plastic on the doors, and lightly used (

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

It is the same as years prior.

[@99gsman]

What's with the ugly flaps over the headlights

[@scotth9828]

I love the orange!!!

[@tdtommy196]

I bought a 2023 F150 last year. I am not in a hurry to rush out and buy a new Maverick or anything. However, I might be interested in scaling down to one in the next 3-5 years. I think these are starting to get pretty cool. I really kind of like the idea of the Lobo, but I find the 2.0 Eco to be a little wimpy for something that is supposed to be a high performance street truck. It would be cool if they could shoehorn in the 2.7L Nano. Give this thing 325HP and 400 lbs/ft of Torque right out the factory and then get it close to 400HP with a tune. Pair it with the 10 speed selectshift from the ecoboost mustang as well as maybe an optional 6 speed manual. If you are going to give us a performance Maverick, why half ass it?

[@TheJeremygoodyear]

Is the hybrid available on the tremor?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

It is not no. Only the 2.0 ecoboost

[@Schrodj1]

is there adaptive cruise control on this?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

On the lariat & tremor yes

[@pmroveda]

Blue in cream interior looks so dated

[@BluegrassNBass]

I have a 23XL and a 24 Lariat. That's enough for me. I can't get passed the geico lizard licking his eye front end. I drove Volkswagen rabbits for a lot of years so fwd is good enough for me. Toss a set of studs on and you're good to go.

[@TellurdogIsayhi]

Touch screen only HVAC controls blow.

[@cedriccj3]

Is the XLT Space white?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Yes it is, super cool color in person. Lots of flake

[@jonathonvince561]

Ford: let's keep it simple and release the cheapest truck on the market. Ford sales: can't build enough to keep up with demand Ford 3 years later: let's throw a ton of bs at it and make it ridiculous cost just like everything else.

Speak for yourself, I love the orange in the 22-24😎

[@sammyjammy6647]

You can get the orange again, but you have to get the tremor trim

[@joshuahernandez9682]

Man really wish they would've made the bed just a tiny bit longer

[@jeno5347]

Is the one in the middle the new color (space white) or is it the oxford white?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

Space!

[@blueschiz]

Ford really needs to hire a color consultant for the interiors. There probably is one who is screaming inside because they have been ignored. I love everything about my Maverick except the interior colors, which just make me sad because they could be so much better. Parts of the new ones work, but all of the colors of the interior have to work together and work with the exterior color. And these random flashes of bright color look like afterthoughts, not intentional design.

[@zee9er]

Yeah who in the hell wants colors in the interior haha

[@quoththeraven7]

Most reviewers will tell the audience that they don't like the old school rear view mirrors but they won't tell the Ford engineers that! if they would have mentioned that a couple times two years ago, you probably would have auto dimming rearview mirrors.. They don't wanna say anything because they think like they won't be invited back

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

I can’t say that I ever talked to an engineer before that day. It comes down to them watching our videos and I’ve brought that up many times on my old lariat

[@StephenRichards-s9t]

Now we are talking!

Yes, 8 inch digital gauge cluster. We have a more in depth video launching on the new Maverick tomorrow!

[@jonathonvince561]

[@AcktongueBaby]

Other than the seats is the textured door panels, the same white color because it looks like it’s a tan color as well. You guys didn’t spend enough time inside the lariat.

[@Boostedbeard]

Thanks for the vid love all the content on the Mavricks. More car looks hard buttons in a truck not touch screen only. For suites don't get their hands dirty offroad or at work collecting the huge profits driving around their apparently Honda Ridgelines I guess.. Typical ford for the last few years price increase and trim paywalls that make no sense with ridiculous price increases and making them a less affordable truck.

[@Cerby1979]

What’s the point in getting one if the future price is going to be about the same as a Ranger?

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

The top trims are the same price as a base model Ranger.

[@sammyjammy6647]

@@PerformanceOnWheels if it was your money, which trim are you interested in thus far?

[@taggerung890]

Watching this video again and just wanted to say - the physical buttons seem very random - auto brake hold - defogger - hazards - camera - fwd/rev volume knob ???? they seem to have just thrown random buttons down there they should have made a more logical groups Auto brake hold - Camera || Hazard || fwd - play/pause -rev If you're going to put the hvac controls on the screen - at least move the defogger into the screen as well don't mix media and hvac physical controls Realistically speaking you don't need "quick" acces to function buttons (pro trailer, AHB, camera, or hazards - those could be moved to the to the Console where the shifter is located - use the "quick" access spot for HVAC controls that the driver changes more frequently

[@haglboom]

I gave a thumbs down. It wasn’t against a channel. You Gentlemen, are doing a great job. Keep it up. It was against the new redesign.

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

I appreciate that! Glad you like our videos! However please don’t give our video a thumbs down for the vehicle.. just hurts our channel not the vehicle ;)

[@haglboom]

I apologize this is actually the first time I’ve actually commented something negative on KZbin. I’ve retracted my Thumbs down. You guys are doing a great job. Would love to see more modifications towards the Mavericks. Ex: aftermarket audio upgrade. And disabling of tracking devices, such as telematics module and Wi-Fi modem 😉

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

@haglboom we can do that!!!

[@sergeantsnugglez3228]

Who's ready to pay almost 40k for a 22k truck? This truck's concept is great, but Ford/Dealers screwed it up. The base price has gone up 30-40%, the hybrid option isn't free, and you have to pay extra for it now, dealers are still ripping people off with "market adjustments".

[@PerformanceOnWheels]

The hybrid option is now the standard motor again for 2025.

[@sergeantsnugglez3228]

@@PerformanceOnWheels stand corrected on the motor, but still doesn't change the price going up to 28k for the lowest trim before destination.

Everyone knows people want physical buttons. Make no mistake, it is a cost cutting measure to put all the controls on a screen. I would think about trading up from a 24 to a 25 for the AWD Hybrid, but controls on a screen is a BIG NO for me.

Getting too complicated. It already had enough computer controlled items. Sometimes simple is better. I like my 2024 XL and hope to keep it for quite a while. The price on a base XL has increased around $4,000 since 2022.

Just got my 2024 too, but man do I wish I had Velocity Blue or Eruption Green as options and an AWD hybrid. Went with plain black because nothing jumped out at me. Glad Cactus Gray is gone.

I stand corrected on the price. I just saw today that all wheel drive is now standard on the XL. The price has now gone up over $6,000 since the 2022 model came out on a base XL.

[@ern48]

No thanks! Build a simple basic pickup again like the Courier or early Ranger. Sadly it will never happen since making $$$ is more important than providing an affordable pickup for the masses.

[@ryanelliott822]

Looks more like a gmc I had to double check at first.Definitely should have kept the buttons for climate control

all the trims? so no more XL? did they forget what made the truck so popular? Are they going to all be 40k plus now? what a waste of a good thing. give me the XL hybrid awd for 30k and watch how many units they sell

The XL hybrid still exists and the AWD starts at 30k sounds like your in luck 🍀
