2025 Ford Maverick spied with new off-road tires, bigger screen

A refreshed Ford Maverick was caught testing by spy photographers in Dearborn this week, giving us our first glimpse at what Ford has in store for the first round of updates to its Escape-based trucklet. Considering how popular the Maverick is, it's pretty obvious that Ford doesn't need to fiddle too much with its existing formula, but even good cars need tech enhancements, and that appears to be the focus (small F) of Ford's efforts for its baby pickup.

2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz Brings Subtle Flair, Off-Road Chops

Pickup trucks are undoubtedly growing by the year (even if the functional bed size isn't), but there's also a downsizing trend for certain pickups. Ford's utilitarian Maverick truck launched in 2022, largely creating a category of its own inside a saturated pickup market. But the folks in Dearborn can't claim full responsibility for the resurgence of truly small trucks. Hyundai jumped into the compact segment as well. After launching its quirky, pseudo-truck-crossover Santa Cruz in 2022, Hyundai and Ford began competing for the same set of buyers. As it turns out, four doors, five seats, and the ability to put something (albeit small) in the bed every once in a while is quite appealing. As the 2025 model year approaches, Hyundai is subtly revamping its adventure-ready Santa Cruz, which is based on the Tucson crossover, but with a bed. The Korean automaker is not doing so through sub

Junkyard Gem: 2001 Jaguar XJ8

After Ford bought Jaguar in 1989, the bosses in Dearborn finally got their hands on a storied luxury brand that would be taken more seriously than Lincoln outside of North America. A fresh infusion of dollars worked wonders to improve the quality of Jaguar's engineering and assembly, and development of a modern DOHC V8 engine immediately took a high priority. That engine made its debut in the 1997 Jaguar XK8, then went into the engine compartment of the very first production Jaguar sedan to get factory V8 power: the XJ8. Today's Junkyard Gem is one of that first generation of XJ8, found crashed in a Colorado self-service boneyard.

Junkyard Find: 1964 Ford Fairlane 500 4-Door Sedan

The 1960 model year saw a trio of brand-new compact Detroit cars ( the Corvair, Valiant and Falcon) appear to do battle with increasingly popular small imports. Sales were strong, and the Detroit Big Three plus the Kenosha One got busy preparing midsize cars to slide between the compacts and the full — sizers. Ford's entry was the Fairlane, which debuted as a 1962 model. Here's one of those first-generation Fairlanes, found in a self-service boneyard just south of Denver, Colorado.

Consensus Is Building to Fight Climate Change, Ford Survey Finds

It is important to “actively fight climate change today,” said 84% of people polled globally for the Further With Ford 2024 trends report, which this year carries the theme, ‘Charting My Path.’ The number is 77% in the United States and Australia on the low end, with 93% in China on the high end, Ford’s chief futurist, Jennifer Brace, said in a Society of Automotive Analysts webinar Thursday. More from the annual survey of 16,000 respondents—“not focused on Ford customers,” according to Brace—from the general population of 16 countries: 69% say all-electric vehicles are the future. US is third-lowest on this question, at 59%, above only France (47%) and Germany (50%). For the oil-rich Middle East, 78% expect EVs to take over some day. What does this mean for th

Secretive Ford ‘Skunkworks’ Team Developing Cheap EV to Beat Tesla and China

Tesla went from a high-end electric automaker to a mass-market car company when Model 3 and Model Y sales hit big numbers. Those two EVs flipped the script, forcing legacy automakers to accelerate the development of affordable electric cars. Ford responded by poaching one of Tesla's top engineers and building a team around him, and as the Blue Oval's CEO Jim Farley divulged on an earnings call Tuesday, they've essentially created an in-house startup aimed at developing a low-cost EV.
