The pictures are media conjecture ( it’ll look nothing like a Falcon Ute ), look at the current styling cues used by Ford.

if true the Ute will be some sort of hybrid, based on an existing platform I imagine.

This is interesting... I've got nothing really to back this up, but I assumed there was no market for such Utes in the US. They have preferred the likes of Dual Cabs.

It looks pretty good. But I think it would look much better if they stretched the door to the rear of the quarter window and made it all one piece of glass and pillarless like the XA/B/C utes and panel vans, it would be much cooler.

I'm guessing this will be a low ride, 2 door version of the existing Maverick.

It won’t look like that, that’s click bait, and a YouTubers “make believe” pic.

Oh boy, that video has been going round and round on the internet

I believe that this was a mistaken interpretation of what ended up being the Maverick Tremor.
