2022 Ford Maverick XLT Walk Around
The Drivers Information Screen
The digital/configurable part of the screen is 6.5 inches as measured diagonally. The Tack and Speedometer are analog and the Engine Temp Gauge as well as the Fuel Gauge are mostly analog with a digital meter.
The 6.5 inch configurable portion is simply laid out and a simple push of the menu button on the left side of the steering wheel will bring up all your main pages. Using the up and down arrows and the toggle switch, you can easily navigate to the pages you want, and then access out by pressing the OK button. The menu selection is adequate, but does not go into the depth that the full sized pickups do. But all the basics are there including Phone, Audio, General Settings, and Display Set Up. You do have the ability under Settings, to choose which main pages will show up when you press the Menu button, or you can choose to have them all on.
Overall, a nice system at this price point.
Infotainment System
This screen is an 8 inch screen measured diagonally and has wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, AM, FM, but no HD or Sirius XM Radio. It is powered by the older Sync 3 system from Ford, which was a disappointment, as the newer Sync 4 system is much faster and has wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto. The sound system itself had 6 speakers and was a basic Ford Factory System.
Overall the system although basic, still has all the basic information you would typically want, and even though it did not have Navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto can be used for that purpose and it works just as if the car had its own system.
