Key Takeaways

• Look for the 2027 Maverick to reach our showroom in fall 2026.

What's in Store for the 2027 Maverick?

After receiving updated styling in 2025 and a handful of refinements for 2026, the Maverick isn't expected to see any significant changes this year. Instead, Ford is likely to continue building on a package that has already proven popular with drivers looking for an affordable, practical pickup.

Which Engine Should You Choose?

It depends on whether efficiency or performance tops your priority list, but the Maverick has an option to match.

The standard hybrid powertrain combines a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor to produce a total of 191 horsepower. It uses a continuously variable automatic transmission and can be configured with either front- or all-wheel drive.

Drivers wanting extra performance can opt for the available 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder. This engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The XL trim offers the turbo engine with front-wheel drive, while higher trim levels pair it exclusively with all-wheel drive.

Ready to Work When You Are

Despite its compact dimensions, the Maverick is built to handle more than just errands around town. Every model offers up to 1,500 pounds of payload capacity, while standard towing capacity comes in at 2,000 pounds. Add the available Tow Package, and towing capability doubles to 4,000 pounds.

The truck bed is equally practical. It's designed to fit up to 18 sheets of three-quarter-inch plywood without angling the load, making trips to the home improvement store a little easier. A standard 12-volt outlet adds convenience, while an available 110-volt outlet can power tools, equipment, or other accessories when you're on the job or at the campsite.

Everyday Comfort Meets Modern Technology

The Maverick comes exclusively as a four-door crew cab, making it easy to bring passengers along for the ride. While the rear seat is more comfortable for children than taller adults, the interior makes efficient use of every inch of space.

Even the base model includes thoughtful features like remote keyless entry, adjustable lumbar support for the front seats, and a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel with integrated audio controls. Higher trims build on that foundation with available upgrades such as dual-zone automatic climate control, ambient interior lighting, and power-adjustable front seats.

Technology remains one of the Maverick's strongest selling points. Every trim includes a 13.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, and a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. Available options include SiriusXM satellite radio, wireless smartphone charging, and a premium B&O Play audio system.

Does the Maverick Deliver at the Pump?

The Maverick continues to stand out with fuel economy that's difficult to match in the pickup segment. Front-wheel-drive hybrid models are rated for up to 42 mpg in the city, 35 mpg on the highway, and 39 mpg combined. All-wheel drive has only a modest impact, with ratings of up to 40 mpg city and 37 mpg combined.

For drivers who choose the turbocharged engine, EPA estimates reach up to 23 mpg city, 33 mpg highway, and 26 mpg combined, offering a nice balance between performance and efficiency.
