The all-new 2022 Ford Maverick is a new kind of pickup, compact and efficient and packed with features. The Maverick is the truck for people who never knew they wanted a truck.
Starting with an MSRP of $19,995, the all-new Ford Maverick is a compact truck with a unibody design and the first pickup in America with a standard full-hybrid powertrain. It comes as a standard five-passenger, four-door pickup, with a full-hybrid powertrain and a projected EPA-estimated rating of 40 mpg city fuel economy and 500 miles of range on a single tank of gas.
The 2.5L Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder hybrid powertrain delivers 191 horsepower when combined with the electric motor, and 155 lb.-ft. of torque mated to a continuously variable transmission driving the front wheels. It features an in-house-designed and manufactured electric traction motor.
Maverick offers lots of smart technology, including a standard 8-inch touch screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, standard FordPass Connect with embedded modem and Ford Co-Pilot360 technologies like Automatic Emergency Braking and Automatic High Beam Headlamps.

The Maverick FLEXBED system provides a multi-position tailgate, 10 available anchor points, and two 12-vot 20-amp pre-wired sources at the back.
