Ford listened to customer feedback in order to improve its popular compact truck.
Ford has injected new life into the Maverick with a comprehensive update. A key highlight is the introduction of an all-wheel drive option for the popular hybrid powertrain, which was one of the most requested features.
A refreshed exterior, a significantly larger infotainment screen, and a revamped lineup, including a dedicated Tremor trim, round out the changes.
The standard powertrain is a 2.5-liter self-charging hybrid producing 191 hp (142 kW / 194 PS). It comes with a CVT gearbox and offers both front- and all-wheel drive options. For those seeking more power, an optional 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine generating 238 horsepower is available exclusively with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The exterior refresh centers on redesigned headlights, a new grille, and an adjusted bumper. The lineup consists of the base XL, mid-level XLT, upscale Lariat, and the off-road-oriented Tremor, which previously came as an option package.
Each trim level is differentiated by unique styling features. The Lariat, for example, boasts 19-inch wheels, while the Tremor is marked by orange accents. A new Black Package, featuring blacked-out grille, roof, emblems, and wheels, is available as an option across the lineup. To complement the exterior, Ford has also introduced a fresh color palette.
New infotainment system
The interior has been significantly upgraded for the 2025MY. A new 13.2-inch touchscreen dominates the dashboard, replacing the previous 8-inch unit. This larger display incorporates Ford’s SYNC4 infotainment system and supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Drivers will also appreciate the new 8-inch digital instrument cluster. To complement the tech upgrades, Ford has introduced fresh interior color and material options.
The Maverick’s versatile 4.5-foot Flexbed retains its practicality with features like built-in storage pockets, dividers, a power outlet, and a multi-position tailgate.
Maximum payload is rated at 1,500 pounds (680 kg), reduced to 1,400 pounds (635 kg) for the AWD Hybrid, and to 1,140 pounds (517 kg) for the ICE-only Tremor. As with the outgoing model, towing capacity is 2,000 pounds (907 kg), doubling to 4,000 pounds (1,814 kg) with the optional 4K Tow Package.
Pricing and availability
Ford will start accepting orders for the 2025 Ford Maverick from August 1, with deliveries commencing in late 2024. The base-spec hybrid with front-wheel drive is priced from $26,295 – not including a $1,595 destination and delivery fee. For comparison, the facelifted model is $875 more expensive compared to the 2024 MY hybrid, and $2,375 more expensive than the outgoing Ecoboost.
