This is a Motormouth couple car review of the Ford maverick EcoBoost compact pickup truck. We reviewed the Ford Maverick hybrid in the spring, and we were really impressed with it, now we’ve got the 2L Ecoboost Maverick Lariat which is the top trim. There are some key differences between the two models, power, fuel economy and AWD vs. FWD. In Canada, the gas model is AWD, but both FWD and AWD options are offered in the US. The Maverick hybrid only FWD. Let’s start with power, the gas Ford Maverick model has a 2L Ecoboost engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission, 250 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. The hybrid a 2.5L
4-cylinder matched to an ECVT with a combined 191 horsepower. Fuel economy, the hybrid gets 5.6L/100 km, 42 MPG city and 7.1L/100km, 33 MPG highway. The 2L Ecoboost, 10.7L/100km, 22 MPG city and 8.1L/100km, 29 MPG highway. We find the gas model to be quieter than the hybrid but equally as comfortable. You’ll notice the power difference between the two as well, the 2L Ecooboost is simply more powerful but what you give up in power in the hybrid, you gain in fuel economy. The Ford Maverick doesn’t come with a lot of standard features, you add packages to trims to get the extras. Standard features include, an 8” touchscreen, wired Apple Carplay and Android Auto, a 4.2” instrument cluster, manual driver and passenger seats, black onyx cloth upholstery and 17” wheels. The top Ford maverick Lariat trim we are driving has a desert brown interior with bronze accents, a 6.5” instrument cluster, 8-way power driver seat, manual passenger seat, dual-zone automatic temperature controls, noise reducing windshield, power sliding rear window and 18” wheels. Our test model has plenty of add-ons including, the Lariat package for $5,000 CAD/$3,750 USD and the moonroof for over $1,100 CAD/$995 USD. Package features include, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless charger, 8-speaker B&O sound system, Sync3 and blind spot monitoring and rear-cross traffic alert. Price as tested, $46,045 CAD. The Maverick FWD gas model starts at $21,430 USD, AWD $29,350 CAD, $24,085 USD, XLT FWD $23,795 USD, XLT AWD $31,950 CAD, $26,450 USD, Lariat FWD $27,295 USD, AWD $35,400 CAD, $29,950 USD. The Ford Maverick is the perfect vehicle for people who want the utility of an open truck bed without having to go with a large pick-up truck. It’s great for trips to the garden centre and home improvement store. It has a payload of 1500 pounds and a 4.5” bed, but extends to about 6 feet when you lower the tailgate. The Ford Maverick gets 8.3” of ground clearance for the FWD model and 8.6” for AWD. The Ford Maverick 2L Ecoboost can tow 2,000 pounds and with the optional tow package available, it can tow 4,000 pounds.
