If Ford Motor Company could come up with a new package for the Maverick Hybrid FWD dedicated to warm weather states, what it should look like? Here is my list of preferred equipment:

So your list of 'warm weather state' items is just... a list of things people from everywhere have said they wanted. None of which have any warm weather specific benefit.

...Why?

Noted. I would think that a moon roof could be used more often in warm weather. Also, by removing the "heated" equipment included in the LUX package, and replace it with the Power Tilt/Slide Moon Roof and the leather steering wheel (not heated), the total cost would be the same.
Hope this helps!

The only thing I see on that list that will help in a warm climate is the moonroof.

I could see adding the beefier engine/transmission cooling as a warmer climate add on.

Perhaps swap out slippery drive mode for sand.

Additional and darker tint options for the windows.

Maybe a white decal for the roof, like the first editions black one, to assist with the AC doing its job.

While thinking about AC, cooled seats would be a nice addition.

A light colored leather wrap on the steering wheel (similar to lariat) to assist with not burning ones hands when first getting in.

The clear tint for windshields that helps with heat would be beneficial.

Just tossing out ideas that I think might be good ideas based on my experience living in Florida.

Speaking of Florida, a sweet tea dispenser where the cubby is now. (Ok, now I'm just being silly)
