The 2022 Ford Maverick was revealed to much fanfare a few months ago, and over 100,000 eager fans have placed reservations for the new compact pickup thus far. Now, those prospective owners won’t have to wait much longer to take delivery of their shiny new truck, because 2022 Ford Maverick production is officially underway at the Ford Hermosillo Assembly Plant, the automaker has announced.
2022 Ford Maverick production will take place alongside the Ford Bronco Sport – with which the Maverick shares the Ford C2 platform, along with the Ford Escape, which is built at the Ford Louisville Assembly Plant.
It’s still early, but all signs point to tremendous consumer interest in the new Maverick. So far, most of the reservations placed for the pickup have come from customers in Los Angeles and San Francisco, California, Houston, Texas, and Orlando, Florida – areas historically dominated by the Toyota Tacoma.
Likewise, the Maverick appears to be attracting a lot of owners of vehicles from other brands, mostly Honda and Toyota. A large percentage of the orders placed thus far have come from men under the age of 40, which is a demographic Ford targeted with the Maverick name, as Ford Authority exclusively reported last month, as well as fleet customers, owners of older Ford sedans, and first-time truck owners.
In addition to North America, the Ford Maverick will also be sold in other parts of the globe, including the South American countries of Brazil and Argentina. Considering the fact that the base version of the Maverick touts a base price of less than $20,000 and is expected to deliver 40 miles-per-gallon in the city, it’s no surprise that the new model has proven to have a rather broad appeal so far.
We’ll have much more on the new Maverick very soon, so be sure and subscribe to Ford Authority for more Ford Maverick news and around-the-clock Ford news coverage.
A very nice example of the rare machine.

It's vying against a pretty large field of contenders, however.

I ordered one the day after they came out from Florida. A Red Lariat hybrid. I have a Silver Lariat Sport Ranger now. Love the Ranger.
Congrats. Envious because I ordered up a Bronco on day 2 (or late on day 1) and despite having s VIN and production scheduled for this week there is no update. Mavericks will far outsell Broncos. Just because they can be built.
Looking forward to getting my Maverick. Dusty Gray

Cha Ching let that Ford cash register ring
Who thinks a metallic gray will be a big seller
If it is all the dealer's buyer orders, it will sell a lot.
Would like to see Ford offer a tan on the Maverick (and the Bronco, for that matter) that is close to the Toyota Tacoma color Quicksand.
...and maybe a Sasquatch package for the Maverick....
I've been waiting years for a truck that would get over 30 mpg. Never
was comfortable with a truck that would get less than 20 mpg. Thanks to Ford, and God, I'll be able to finally afford a truck. Thanks, Larry in Va.
Not one comment in the article of any supplier part shortages that has plagued nearly all other vehicle production. Is the Maverick immune?
no, it's not! We are getting delayed left and right, due to paint issues?
That area 51 color grabs my attention here in San Diego! How do I make a reservation to buy? How much to place order?
I need to see the colors in person 1st. Internet (computer screen) colors don’t always look the same in real life.
