In recent years, black appearance packages have gained favor among new vehicle shoppers, prompting The Blue Oval to offer them on a number of vehicles including the Ford Edge SE Black Appearance Package and the Ford F-150 Black Appearance Package on a number of trims. Now, the 2023 Ford Maverick is also gaining its own Black Appearance Package, which will be optional on both XLT and Lariat trims.
No further information is available on the 2023 Ford Maverick Black Appearance Package at this time, and the automaker hasn’t provided any photos of it, either. However, judging by the equipment included in similar packages on other Ford models, we can likely expect things like black wheels, badging, bumpers, grilles, mirror caps, bodyside decals, headlamp bezels, tinted taillights, exhaust tips, and various other darkened elements.
Meanwhile, the 2023 Ford Maverick will introduce a few additional changes to the compact pickup in its second year of production. Most notably, that includes the new Tremor Off-Road Package, which builds upon the existing FX4 Off-Road Package by adding a unique all-wheel drive system that utilizes a twin-clutch rear-drive unit with a differential lock feature, specially-tuned springs and shocks, upgraded half shafts, a heavy-duty transmission cooler, steel skid plates, unique dark gray anodized 17-inch aluminum wheels, standard all-terrain tires, and various Tremor Orange accents accents inside and out.
2023 Ford Maverick order banks opened up today following a bit of a delay, which caused the compact pickup to be dropped from FoMoCo’s rate lock incentive plan. Production of the compact pickup was also pushed back several weeks as a result, and is currently scheduled to begin at the Hermosillo Assembly plant in Mexico on November 14th, 2022.
We’ll have more on the Maverick soon, so be sure and subscribe to Ford Authority for more Ford Maverick news and continuous Ford news coverage.

I tried to order a Maverick today and the scumbag “HASSETT” Ford dealer on Long Island wanted 5K over list.
I’d call ford and report them
Was told tonight by the Ford.com online chat representative that you won’t be able to build and order through the website until October. For now, you have to go through a dealer. Fill out the online contact form and wait. Who knows how much they will try to charge over sticker.
Had one dealer try to sell me a 2022 in August for $12,000 over sticker. Said that if I didn’t buy it, someone else would within 48 hours.
I placed an order through Stivers Ford of Birmingham. Price is MSRP. Very smooth process.
Did you receive a signed purchase agreement?
if the order bank has opened, has anyone be notified on what this means to existing unfilled orders. is it an automatic process or do we have to contact somebody at the dealerships to reinstate the order. assuming that since they will continue to build 22 models until mid november when the switch to 23 is scheduled we still have 2 months of uncertainty and waiting in the dark not having any idea or guidance on how our orders will progress, can anyone shed some light on this??
Tom, contact your dealer and start over with a new order for 2023 and they are supposed to give you a higher priority code if you already had a 2022 order.
You arecstarting over and have to reapply for a 2023 through a dealer who allegedly has a “priority” code to put in to the dealer Ford ordering system. This assumes that you have a dealer that is going to have sufficient “allocation” of Mavericks.
My dealer said today that the 22s get filled first , contact dealers because he said they were having to re Input them as 23s
Sure. Again, that’s if you get on a priority line and the dealer has allocation. Big if!!
I have a 22MY order that was not scheduled for build yet and was called earlier today by my salesman asking me if I wanted to ok moving my order to 23MY.
ARE THE ORDER BANKS FOR THE 2023 MAVERICK OPEN OR NOT ?
They are open. I have been with Ford 34 years. The order bank opened at 4pm yesterday. I put in all my clients orders yesterday. I am the Fleet Manager at Gary Crossley Ford in Missouri. The system was really slow, and it took me over 5 hours to get in the 9 orders for my clients, but I did get them in. Today I confirmed (COVP’d) all my clients also.
It’s a shame they did it with no information released on Ford.com
Was up at midnight trying to order on the site only to find out later, from a 20 minute wait on the chat line, at 6AM PST, the link to “contact dealer”. Their priority lines to Ford opened 4:30 EST.
M.G. the bad news is that Ford.com is run by the 3rd party. So they dropped the ball on getting everything updated. I call Ford customer sales service last week and found out that the order bank was going to open yesterday (in reality today).
Didn’t like your comment so I deleted it.
I tried calling and there is no one that can help.
You crack me up AZKev. Sad part is you ain’t that far off. You’re a qualified idiot if you order a 2023 Maverick. You will be behind all those poor folks that you see on this site whining about not yet getting their 2022 model. Ford is the worst company in the US and it’s not gonna get better soon because Ford knows they can jack you around without any accountability. If you don’t need a new vehicle soon than by all means give your money to this terrible company but if you want to drive a new car there are plenty out there that are available and most are at MSRP and some, like RAM pickups can be had for several thousand off. Enjoy a new vehicle today and not in 2028 as AZKev says. That got a good laugh.
Why are you on this site if Ford is the worst company in the US? So, run along Mike S!
I am on this site to try to talk some sense into idiots like you, Russell.
Does dodge offer a small truck and in a hybrid ? Not all people want or need a big truck and I everybody has different tast , and with gas prices they way they are some of us want to save some money and we sure don’t need someone telling us what to do and your opinion is yours and mine is mine and if you got but hurt at some time from Ford that’s your problem and trying to sway people to YOUR away of thinking is totally wrong , sorry but your wrong
I ordered a lariat 13 plus months ago. Have been told due to constraints they are having trouble building mine while similar lariats are showing up on dealer lots near by. The ones I see have the same packages as I wanted. Am getting a bit pissed off.
I ordered a lariot got tired of waiting so I went down and bought a Hyundai Santa Cruz think it’s a way better vehicle anyway getting 33.5 miles to a gallon with all wheel drive-and a Turbo Bye bye Ford you screwed me in 2004 with your 3 valve piece of junk motor motor I don’t think I want to give you a second chance Too many quality control issues too much drama with the dealers
Making up stories? That’s awesome.
I ordered a Lariat Fx4 July, 2021 and it came in April, 2022. Delayed several times due to chip shortages and spray in bedliner, but it finally arrived. Paid sticker price $33,600 and traded in my 2020 F150 4×4 . The dealer gave me $500 more than I paid for the F150 new and it had 17,000 miles on it. I have put 5500 miles on the Maverick, and average 27.8 mpg.
Just received my notice from Ford that my 22 Mav lariat Hybrid is NOW going to be a 23. NO mention of price guarantees for those of us waiting so long….NO LOYALTY for those of us who have been loyal to Ford for DECADES! Ford is no longer an honorable company. Henry Ford is ROLLING in his GRAVE!!
You’ll be receiving a certificate (rebate) from Ford to cover the price increase. That information has been out for a week or so. Ask your dealer, or research it for yourself.
Agree
My rep at Mullinax Ford in Apopka said if I added the black appearance package, it would further delay the process. I really want the BAP, but he couldn’t tell me if we were talking like a month longer or half a year.
Ford needs to get their act together and stop falsifying truck availability. Our 2022 order was pushed back 10 months. Now it has been cancelled and we are asked to order a 2023 with indefinite completion date. Totally left helpless at their mercy. Don’t believe what they say.
I ordered my new 2022 last September got it in July this yr. I had to put $1000 deposit down that was included in my down payment once I signed at Conway- Hinton in Bardstown Ky. Love my truck
I ordered my Maverick the first day of the latest round.
After reading all of the articles on this website regarding why the Maverick is inexpensive I am concerned. The rust on the muffler as soon as you through either winter or rain. An exhaust system will cost big bucks when it comes due. The other problem is the thickness of the paint that was highlighted by a detailer. I know the person is trying to drum up business however I don’t want anything that will look like older vehicles that have sun damage. If ever get my truck it will need to be parked outside and will take a beating from the sun.
I know that it mean looking into the future as a retired person I don’t want to pay the labor cost of what it will be in the future. It’s $180 per hour right now. It’s just about impossible to get normal maintenance taken care of without paying less than $1000.
It might be time head to the beater lot and trucks that go to the junkyard when they die. Just keep the oil changed and that’s it.
