UDS,UNS Overview:
Ford Maverick (UDS,UNS). With 197 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. With a weight of 1750 kg, it falls in the mid‑range. All‑wheel drive provides excellent grip, ideal for off‑road use. Acceleration is relatively slow (0–100 km/h in 14 s). The top speed reaches 160 km/h. A sport utility vehicle offering higher ground clearance and versatile cargo space. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
Performance Verdict
The 124 Hp 2.4 12V petrol engine in the 5-door model delivers strong performance, with 0-100 km/h in 14 seconds, making it a lively option for a larger SUV.
Fuel Economy
With 11.4 l/100 km, this is the least fuel-efficient option, a trade-off for its superior performance and the weight of the 5-door body. Best for those less concerned with fuel costs.
