As the very first hybrid pickup available from Ford, the upcoming 2022 Maverick is quite an impressive vehicle - particularly in regards to its exclusive FlexBed. Compact, intuitive, and extremely versatile, you can adapt this innovative option to suit your needs.
With its multi-position tailgate, the new Maverick offers several storage configurations. From hauling bags of soil to bicycles and everything in-between, you can load almost anything into the back. Want to explore this feature further? Keep reading!
The back area of the new 2022 Ford Maverick measures 4.5-feet in length. Providing roughly 33.3 cubic feet (943 litres) of space, you can fill it with up to 1,500 lbs (680 kg) of payload; and don't be fooled by its (deceptively) compact appearance. The FlexBed tailgate stretches the load floor by 1.5-feet. That’s a total of 6-feet available for storage, which is plenty for the vast majority of daily driving needs.
The unique tailgate does more than just expand the flat-lay space. It can also hold up to 400 lbs (181 kg) of weight on its own, greatly increasing overall storage options. Plus, it has the ability to close only halfway. This is ideal if you need to travel with longer items. Simply adjust the retention cords to accommodate the object, and you can be on your way in no time!
Whether you are volunteering for the community or out on a weekend adventure, you can keep all of your tools and toys energized with the dual 400-watt 110-volt power outlets. One is located inside the cabin, and the other is installed in the FlexBed. You can plug in a mini-fridge or charge your eBike quickly and efficiently. You can even utilize the two 12-volt wires to hook up LED lights or television.
Other add-ons for the 2022 Ford Maverick FlexBed include up to 10 tie-downs to secure the payload, four D-rings, and threaded holes integrated into the bed’s sides for enhanced customization. Aluminum rails are also optional to help you securely stow items, while an available lighting system further improves the experience (providing precise illumination at the rear).
If you would like to customize the cargo area inside the FlexBed, then you are in luck. All you have to do is scan the feature's unique QR code (which is included with the purchase of a new Maverick), and you will find various DIY ideas about how to upgrade the box. From single- to multi-dividers to your very own bike rack, you can arrange this space to suit your specific needs.
