The all-new Ford Maverick Tremor Off-Road Package was revealed back in early August as the most off-road capable version of the compact pickup to date, building upon the existing FX4 Off-Road Package in that regard. A few weeks later, Ford Authority spies captured real-world photos of this new offering, which will also be sold in Mexico in early 2023 as well. Taking a closer look at the FX4 Off-Road Package and the Ford Maverick Tremor reveals some interesting differences between these two packages, however.

As we can see in this chart, both the Maverick Tremor and FX4 Off-Road Package-equipped pickups are powered by the same turbocharged Ford 2.0L I-4 EcoBoost powerplant, which produces 250 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque and is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. In terms of dimensions, the two variants feature the same wheelbase and width, but things vary a bit from there.
The Maverick Tremor is one-inch longer and 0.8 inches taller, with 0.5 inches of additional front overhang and 0.6 inches more rear overhang. The Tremor’s many additional upgrades also improve its off-road prowess with superior approach, breakover, and departure angles compared to the FX4 Off-Road Package, and give it 0.8 inches of additional ground clearance as well.
Compared to the Maverick with the FX4 Off-Road Package, the Maverick Tremor offers a slew of additional upgrades including 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, a unique lower front fascia, dark gray anodized 17-inch aluminum wheels with Tremor Orange accents, and standard all-terrain tires.
The 2023 Ford Maverick Tremor Off-Road Package retails for $2,995, while the Tremor Appearance Package costs an additional $1,495. Both will be available to order along with the regular Maverick when order banks open in September, though production was recently pushed back to November 14th, 2022.

GREAT to see you looking forward how about filling the 2022 model orders!
Ford Maverick order date has been pushed out again. What is the new date ? Our dealer tells us it will be some time in October.
have you gone online and tried to build yours, i was on the site and it looks like you can, not sure if it will actually let you put in an order, but i think they did open the order bank sept 15/16, i’m with Larry got one on order since 12/21, just want it built but it’s hope in one hand and crap in the other see which one fills up first
If you want one, you better order now. Order banks have been open since 9/15 and could be closing this week. Your dealer isn’t being truthful.
Are they actually building 2022’s or will our orders technically be 2023’s? I ordered in January and just got an email saying it will go into production the week of 9/26/22. 🤷🏻♀️
Build the 22 model. It has the 23 feature. Send to local dealership and they’ll order it. No deposits or credit checks. I’ve ordered 4 confirmed through Ford.
Great choices and you cant even build ones ordered 10/21 , I have reordered 9/15 as Ford said I had no vin # as of 9/12 so to reorder. now the order banks CLOSE Today 9/21. so we wait and wait and wait. at least AGAIN I got my conformation email from Ford, on the order NOW BUILD THE DAMN THINGS !!
