I recently noticed a Ford SUV that caught my eye as being compact and looked quite good (a bit like a Freelander shape). It is a Maverick but not the same Maverick as the Terrano shape. Looking on Autotrader they are called 'XLT' and seem only to be petrol. I'm surprised they aren't more widely known. Does anyone know the background to these models?

Sister car of the Mazda Tribute. Available as a 2.0 4 cyl and a 3.0 V6. Good looking in my opinion but not many around. Ford version looks better but I gather Mazda comes in more options including 2WD only with more trim.
Massively successful in the US where it's called the Ford Escape.
I reckon it would have done better here if it was available in a diesel. Ford dropped it from their lineup earlier than Mazda.
