69% Informative

Front-wheel-drive Maverick hybrid averaged 33 mpg on our 75-mph highway test.

It's good for 450 miles between fill-ups of its 13.8-gallon fuel tank.

At $ 1244 , it's on the pricier end of the spectrum, but we're impressed by how easy it was to install, its ease of use.

The 8.0-inch infotainment display is too small, but it's just the right size for a small truck.

The 2.0-liter turbo four is the base engine, and the hybrid is a $ 1500 upcharge.

The Maverick reaches 60 mph in 7.4 seconds and did the quarter-mile in 15.7 seconds at 90 mph , 0.3 and 0.2 second better than our test of a 2022 model.

The steering has just the right amount of effort and ride is on the stiffer side of the spectrum.
