Fog lights spread light low and out to the sides. I need them to see deer!
Even with LED headlights? Our G70's LED headlights certainly eliminate any need for fog lights. Our Seltos has LED headlights and fog lights and the fogs don't add a lot.

I believe today's lighting tech has eliminated the need for what we call "fog" lights here in the USA.

That's nice and all but maybe let's focus money and time on the orders and models yet to be filled that the majority will actually bought/buy. Still waiting on my order made 9/2020. 🙄

2023 Ford Maverick ST prototype 13.jpg



Just in! Our spy photographer caught an interesting new Ford Maverick prototype which could possibly represent an early mule for a higher-performance (ST?) variant. This prototype is not wearing a license plate, which may mean that testing is currently limited to the relative safety of Ford’s test track, where our long lens caught it doing laps

Key Camouflaged Elements Suggest Higher-Performance Intentions.
This early prototype is rocking disguised wheel arches, which appear to be flared a bit to allow wider tires. The truck’s wheels are also covered with camo-covered disks. The most interesting bit, however, is found when looking at this Maverick’s rear-end…Is that a dual exhaust set-up?

Dual Exhaust: The Visual Evidence
While the current FWD Hybrid and AWD EcoBoost Mavericks are both equipped with a single exhaust pipe tucked under the left side of the bumper, this new prototype looks like it has dual exhaust outlets. Although photographed from long-distance, it appears that holes have been cut into the corners of the rear bumper—within the protrusions which frame the panel housing the license plate and tow hitch. We took a close look at a production Maverick to make sure that those textured bumper nubs aren’t separate, pop-out pieces, and they are not. Ford engineers had to physically cut these openings, in the perfect place for a dual-exhaust set-up.

Upgraded Intercoolers On Display?
Although fine details elude us on these long-range shots, we think we can see evidence of changes within this Maverick’s front-fascia’s air-intakes. There appear to be new intercoolers visible in the bottom of the Maverick’s primary grille, as well as in the prototype’s lower air-intake, suggesting a possible high-performance intent.

This tantalizing Maverick testbed appears to be an early work in progress, with the key changes focused in all the areas that would be addressed in a sportier variant. Front-fascia design changes would come along later in development, to more artfully accommodate the performance-focused cooling, and provide a more aggressive look. We’ll definitely be on the hunt for a closer look at this prototype, to see what’s going on in higher-resolution form.

I'll take one in code orange. When can I write you a check for it?

I understand what you are saying. But Ford has to keep moving forward. There will be other entries in the compact truck market trying to challenge the Maverick. Perhaps with higher performance as competition now knows what to shoot for. Chip shortage won’t be forever.

Yeah, maybe don't crucify the lot based on one bad example.... ;)
Ya but who at Mitsubishi though a 10 mile range then a gas motor that only went 250miles was smart. We are at the point where most cars should be able to go a minimum of 300 miles with a full "tank"

also notice how little space in the wheel wells above the tires they have lowered the truck
or put much bigger wheels- 22s?

How did you manage that? Mav was only revealed June 8 2021. Orders started a few weeks after that.
