Spied: 2025 Maverick Refresh Prototypes Reveal Additional TWO New Grille Designs [UPDATED]

[DTF-Garage]

I am really digging that XL grille. Looks better than the Lariat one. I think this Maverick refresh actually has the potential to look really good. I'm excited to see these actually unveilled.

A maverick is a yearling, they don't have horns like that. Not exactly sure where that comparison came from.

Here you go bud. straight from wikipedia. a "feral bull" meaning a "wild cow" is a Maverick. still has horns just like the headlights. The people who act like this matters lol

its a cow with horns dude come on. google maverick and see what comes up... It's not rocket science. a Maverick can be a wild horse or a wild cow...

I'm not your dude

Obviously matters enough for you to reply twice and search and copy the google.

UPDATE:
Just after showing another new grille design for the facelifted 2025 Ford Maverick, we caught yet another (third) new face. This third new grille design looks closer to the current Maverick grille, with a horizontal crossbar encompassing the Ford oval. The new face shows off the new headlight design, first revealed on a completely undisguised Maverick test vehicle earlier this week.

Likely Shows the New Maverick XL Grille
We think this new grille may represent the base XL Maverick grille, for two reasons: 1) The headlights look like they may be more simplified, without the prominent LED signatures, and more halogen overtones, and 2) This prototype’s side mirror doesn’t have the new camera that’s in place on the higher-end Lariat model spied earlier. It would seem that a mroe entry-lvel version may still be available without the upgraded safety and possible autonomous features that appear to be coming for the updated trucks.


ORIGINAL POST:
We just caught another one of the 2025 Ford Maverick’s new grille designs, thanks to a prototype that has shed its front-end camouflage.

Like the completely undisguised prototype we caught earlier this week, this Maverick test truck is running on 19-inch wheels, but NOT the dished turbofan design. Instead, the truck in these latest shots is wearing the original 19-inch wheel design from the initial phases of testing.

This Maverick prototype showcases the new headlight design from the our earlier shots, but the new grille is a big departure from the vertically-slatted grille caught on the earlier Lariat prototype that was caught, undisguised, in blue. Instead, this new grille looks like a more traditional pickup grille treatment, with an aggressive, woven mesh design. We’re not sure exactly what trim this model represents. It could be and XLT, but we’ll have to wait for more camo to be discarded to know for sure.

Grille #2

Grille #3

No matter which design they pick we will have to like it. I hate the new Chevy truck front end. But if you want to have a truck that looks new and not outdated you have to like it. It is a really great marketing strategy to get the customer to want a new vehicle!

I just don't like those new lights and the black inserts they put below the lights that match the grill might look worse than the body colored ones on the blue one. The grill looks better though.

Agreed. Those panels look like they're holding the headlights up. Possibly they could've done something different with the cut lines around the panels? IDK... But yeah, the new grills look nice. Can't wait to see the new interior, even if it's only the revised I/P. The utility of the current center console is very nice, so I hope they don't change too much of it.

You feeling ok champ? Sorry, not your champ, got it.

I wonder about that piece below the grill. Could it be that it is removable and that it could be modified for fog lights and other extra lighting? That could be a nice option.

Judging by the painted door handles, black painted mirror caps and nicer wheels on the white one, that will be the standard Lariat. And judging by the black plastic mirror caps and lesser wheels on the silver one, that will be the XLT. The XL would have steelies unless they're going to replace them with traditional alloys. Those wheels on the silver one look exactly like the current XLTs so it's safe to say which trim that is.

Like I mentioned in the ST post, once you have that visual contrast with the black plastic, it will be much easier on the eyes and sure enough, they're following suit on the other trims. I knew they would. There's no way they would go to the trouble and body color every Maverick trim. That would cost a fortune. I also knew the pitiful waterfall grille and SEMA wheels wouldn't be on the other trims either. It's just for that new ST/Lobo trim.

With all that said, I do enjoy these more traditional grilles. Still takes some getting used to since the Maverick didn't really need a drastic front fascia overhaul but these are a step in the right direction. It's still hard to gauge what they truly look like with the camo that's there and the potential endurance testing damage. Once the full reveal comes out, it should all come into affect. From what I can see, I'm getting new Ranger vibes which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I'm curious to see the full interior.

Wheels are usually totally random of Mules and preproduction vehicles. Wheels really don't indicate anything yet.

Still no key pad, boo

Nope, they left after 2023.

If that was my XL grille, I'd being looking toward the aftermarket immediately. It looks so poverty.

This prototype model looks a little better than that ST nightmare, but those black highlights under the headlights have me scratching my head. Looks like the Ford designers might be aging Alice Cooper fans.
