Ford Maverick

For 2024, the Maverick comes standard with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine, while the hybrid powertrain is available on all trims for an additional $1,500 (except on the Lariat where it is a no-cost option).

Our staff racked up nearly 16,000 miles on the 2022 Maverick hybrid’s odometer in the year we owned it, and our ownership experience was mostly issue-free.

We put some serious numbers on the odometer of our long-term 2022 Ford Maverick in service of a story with the most inane of premises: visiting Masterson, Texas.

The Maverick hybrid has unladen ride quality that’s a bit bumpy, but putting some additional weight over the rear wheels with the attached trailer — along with some supplies in the cargo box — helped make for a smoother, more comfortable ride.

Since our last Maverick update, we’ve added nearly 6,000 miles to the Maverick’s odometer resulting in calculated fuel economy of 35.8 mpg.

Ford gave the 2023 Maverick an off-road Tremor variant, and we drove it to see how the package affects on-road ride quality and handling — and if it’s worth the added cost.

See what you get — and give up — by choosing the Maverick EcoBoost over the Maverick hybrid.

We drove our 2022 Maverick Lariat hybrid on a 200-mile loop around Southeast Michigan to see exactly how good it is on sipping the expensive unleaded.

So far, the 2022 Maverick remains a hit among our editors, with no one lamenting being stuck with it in our constant shuffle of press cars and long-term test cars.
