TuxMat Can Make a Base-Model Car Feel Elite in an Instant

The carpet floor mats your car came with are OK; the rubber all-weather options are usually a little better. But the coverage, fitment, and style of TuxMat floor mats blow both away. A set of TuxMats can transform the interior of a car, even making a low-spec base model feel luxurious. And TuxMat-equipped cars are not just classier looking than their stock counterparts, they’re much better protected.

My brother-in-law Ben is a young professional, daily driving his base Ford Maverick XL to his office and around town. OEM all-weather floor mats were pretty much the only option he ticked when he picked up the truck, and he’d been swapping between those and the stock carpet options as the seasons changed.

We dropped in a set of full-coverage TuxMat products specifically designed for his vehicle, and after a 10-second installation (OK … first there were about 10 minutes of vacuuming) the rig looked and felt far better inside. Just because you’re running a base car on a budget doesn’t mean it can’t look great. For about the price of a few tanks of gasoline, you can meaningfully upgrade the interior of your car with a set of TuxMat floor mats custom-fitted to your make and model.

Superior Build Quality and Fitment

TuxMat’s quality makes itself apparent as soon as you slice open the box. Each piece is thick and shape-holding, with robust-looking stitching and sturdy materials. The underside is textured to limit slippage while the top has large bevels for traction. Those shapes also give it nice visual depth. The mats are far bigger and beefier than the carpeting that this Ford left the showroom with. Even the emblems are solid—shiny but subtle and screwed into the mats, not glued or tacked on with a dinky adhesive.

The attachment points are made of heavy-duty plastic and match up perfectly with the factory clips, locking in with a satisfying click. When you want to remove them for cleaning, popping them back out is just as easy. The clip positioning is perfect, and so are the contours of the mats’ shape.

Simple Installation

Floor mats are just about the only auto accessory easier to install than a sticker—it’s tough to get it wrong. You’ll have an especially easy time putting in TuxMat floor mats because each box comes with a QR code you can scan with your phone linking you to a product demo page. You’ll find images and videos of how to securely install all of TuxMat’s products there. Extra clips and removable adhesives are also included, in case there are any corners or spots that need extra security on your particular car.

This Ford didn’t need any of the extra attaching bits; the build-in provisions for the factory click-in clips up front hold the units in place perfectly.

Comprehensive Coverage

The most visually obvious upgrade of TuxMat floor mats over other floor mat options is the protective coverage they offer. While the stock mats mostly occupy the space directly below the driver’s feet and the factory rubber ones only offer slightly more protection, TuxMat’s products spread outwards and upwards covering almost the entire area below the vehicle’s consoles. I was particularly impressed at how deep they go below the front seats—you would have to work pretty hard to fling mud or drop road trip snacks somewhere not covered by these.

TuxMat floor mats also wrap around the sides of the front seats, protecting these areas where dirt and leaves can sometimes fall in from your shoes as you get in and out.

In the second row of seating, TuxMat covers the entire rear floor area, including the center, with one huge uninterrupted piece. Not only does it look great, but it provides almost no points of ingress for errant dirt bits to get by.

Exceptional Style

Any car would benefit from the protection afforded by TuxMat floor mats, but a low-spec base model like Ben’s Maverick XL really glows up with these things. Because TuxMat provides so many square inches of coverage, the high-quality design becomes a major fixture in any car interior you drop them into, effectively replacing stock automotive carpets with much classier material.

TuxMat has a great combination of practical toughness and luxury-car elegance, providing both durability and appearance enhancements that you’re not going to find in any other upgrade this easy. The ribbed design with its high walls will contain spills and is easy to keep clean.
