Chicago Auto Show: JULY 15-19, 2021 | MCCORMICK PLACE

I'm sure there will be lots of reports from the auto journalist, but are there any local members who plan to go?

https://www.chicagoautoshow.com/vehicles-on-display/2022/ford/maverick/

2022 Ford Maverick: Reviving yet another historic nameplate, Ford dusts off Maverick for its all-new compact pickup truck. The Maverick is anything but old school, as it blends a unibody frame and front- or all-wheel drive chassis with a hybrid powertrain to shake up the pickup-truck ranks. Offered only as a crew cab with a 4.5-foot bed, Maverick is 10 inches shorter than Fordā€™s midsize Ranger pickup, which is 23 inches shorter than its full-size F-150. Maverick competitors include the new Hyundai Santa Cruz and Honda Ridgeline.

When Maverick goes on sale in the fall it will be offered in XL, XLT and Lariat trim. Front-wheel drive will be standard with all-wheel drive being optional. Base powertrain is a 2.5-liter, 4-cylinder engine paired with electric motors and a continuously variable automatic transmission to produce a combined output of 162 horsepower. Optional is a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder that makes 250 horsepower and mates to an 8-speed automatic. Maximum payload on all models is 1.500 pounds. Max. towing on hybrids is 2,000 pounds, 4,000 on turbo models.

Maverick will come standard with Fordā€™s Co-Pilot360 technologies, which includes auto high-beam headlights, forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection and rear-view camera. Optional will be adaptive cruise control, lane centering, reverse sensing, blind-spot alert, lane-departure warning and hill-descent control. Also offered is FLEXBED. Providing organization and cargo solutions, FLEXBED incorporates slots to allow the bed to be divided, has 12 available anchor points, two 12-volt 20-amp prewired sources and two available 110-volt outlets. Pricing starts at $19,995.

As much as I'd like to attend, it would cost me $35 ($10 senior and $25 parking) just to walk thru the door,,,,,,

I may have to. Considering trading in my '13 F150 for a decently optioned XLT at a very minimal cost out of pocket.

I have a Day 2 reservation, but MY 2022 Bronco Sasquatch on order that will be my offroad/fun vehicle so I will need a good fuel economy DD.

Mostly curious about rear seat room even though I'll be the only occupant 99% of the time.

The auto show description missed on the combined output of the hybrid. The number I saw was 191.

If someone goes to this show, and they allow hands-on and sitting in, please let us know. If it's roped-off, I'm not likely to make the trip.

Thanks, HRG
