While most of us wait for an AWD hybrid version of the Maverick, Ford is now shipping the most rugged version of their popular small truck: the Maverick Tremor. In addition to skid plates and all-terrain (and all-weather rated) tires, the Tremor borrows the capable AWD system from the Bronco Sport Badlands. Originally designed for on-road duty in vehicles like the Focus RS, the twin-clutch rear axle effectively becomes a locking or limited slip differential whenever the truck wants. Coupled with a more aggressive center coupling lockup and the Maverick is nearly as capable as a truck twice the price. Looking to go further off the beaten path in an easy-to-park truck? Check out the Maverick, but good luck actually finding one on the lot...

I like the base Maverick. The off-road versions wouldn’t be anywhere on my radar since I have no need for off-road use. I like that they gave it their torque-vectoring rear diff. I was prepared to call the Tremor nothing more than a tire and appearance package, but the rear diff makes it worthwhile for off-road use. For me, the base Maverick Hybrid would be the best. It’s very practical, very efficient and very inexpensive compared to other trucks.

I can only speculate, but I suspect one of the reasons we don't see an AWD Hybrid in Maverick is because the AWD system comes with a heavier (and more costly) IRS system instead of the Hybrid's lightweight twist beam setup. Add the AWD hardware and hybrid battery and you might eliminate much of the FE benefits since it will be heavier overall than the 2.0L EB.
@bradcomis1066
@bradcomis1066 Год назад
The Escape is available as a hybrid and it massively outperforms the standard ice configuration. I’d suspect supply chain is what is keeping the hybrid awd model from being released. Hopefully they’ll have an awd hybrid maverick available eventually. It seems like Ford is having more trouble than others with their supply chain.

A cool vehicle. The Maverick that is. Not sure the Tremor trim level was being asked for. For a Maverick I’d want the trim level that gets the best economy but still hauls a 1,000 lbs in the bed. Here, I pay for the Tremor badge and lose economy and capability. Maybe dealers wanted the Tremor…. Alex this was the complete AoA experience with a little personal touch and humor added. Superb.

I ordered my original 2022 Maverick Hybrid Lariat Lux on 11/2/2021. I was given a VIN in June of 2021 and watched the production date slip at least 6x until the order was cancelled by Ford in Oct of 2022. I rolled the order over to a 2023 in November of 2022 and just took deliver last weekend. 480 days after the initial order. Ford was gracious enough to offer rollovers a $2750 rebate for waiting, which i appreciated. Ive had the truck a few days and cant beleive it only cost me like 34 and change OTD. It should be more money, becuase like you say in this video, its really not that small. Great vid!

I waited 2 weeks short of a year for my Maverick Lariat hybrid. It can deliver over 40 mpg in the summer, and low 30’s highway if you’re not doing 80+. A nice little truck, especially with copilot 360 with lane centering. Ford will be adding a 3rd shift at the plant that builds this plus the Bronco Sport, so this should permit a bunch more of the Ecoboost engine models to be built. For some reason they don’t build as many hybrid models which sees a higher demand than they expected. If you like this size of truck, I think it’s worth the wait, once the order books open up again this summer.

I live in Raleigh, NC and I’ve seen several of them driving around. I believe there’s at least two people in my neighborhood that have one. Not sure if they’re hybrids or turbos, I don’t believe there’s a noticeable badge to distinguish them? I think maybe the hybrid has a small, dark, rectangle badge that simply says “Hybrid” but I’ve only seen them when I’m driving so haven’t been able to confirm. They certainly are cool little trucks. A brilliant idea by Ford. If I didn’t need to save up for a minivan for my family of 5 (all 3 kids need car seats) I’d look at getting one. Practicality is king in my mind.

Yes, it somewhat looks small, and in some ways it is, yet it's not tiny. I look at it from across a parking lot parked next to a lot of other Fords, and it looks small. I stand next to it, it looks small. Then I look at it next to my wife's Cherokee, it's longer, about the same width, and just a touch shorter. It really doesn't occupy a lot let space than my Ram 1500 did, but just a little less. I had someone park next to me in a first generation Colorado, and it's pretty much on par. This means similar to the original Ranger too. Though roomier inside than the current Ranger. As for fuel economy on an AWD XLT, I am experiencing just under 24 mpg commuting to and from work with a fair amount of stop and go traffic. On the highway I've gotten as high as 34 mpg in summer heat through some rather hilly terrain and speeds above the state limit of 65 mpg. There's no lack for power either, as it smoothly delivers impressive performance, too. It's fun to drive, though there are some minor things I'd improve. Overall, for the price, it's a bargain for a truck -- or as I call it a "trucklet."

Ford is opening a 3rd shift for Maverick production, this coming summer. I really think we'll see some different versions of this in the coming years. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a fully enclosed SUV, at some point. People are buying cars but the vast majority of vehicle sales are used. Obviously, because of the prices. It's only getting more difficult. There is absolutely a market for a capable Maverick priced SUV. Possibly larger than the pickup? As a result of used cars selling nearly 3 times as many as new, availability is decreasing and adding to the used prices. Ford is in a perfect spot to take a chunk of that enormous share.

That would be so sweet if ford made the plug in hybrid and just adds an electric motor to the rear pumpkin.

The No. 1 reason the Maverick sold so well is because the base model was priced less than $23,000. That is HUGE!!! Yes, adding AWD or Off-road Packages ups the price to over $30,000, it is still appealing because of what you actually get for the low price. I am a Capitalist, but I hope Ford does not increase the price of it's XL base model!!

Fords Warranty is 3 years 36 k and only the first Oil change is Free! My Santa Cruz has 100k warranty and lifetime Synthetic Oil changes. That's probably where the Price Difference is! I Love the Kooler in the bed floor and the lockable Bed cover too. It not only about price! Made in Mexico scares the hell out of me.

Ordered a hybrid Maverick in October 2021. It got scheduled and then canceled and turned into a rollover order. In the meantime I needed a vehicle so I tracked down a hybrid at a dealer 1,500 miles away and bought that. Now my rollover hybrid is about to be built and will probably be delivered in late February. I don’t know if I will keep it as I don’t really need two Mavericks and my other one is an XLT so it is slightly nicer. If you want an XL hybrid with only one option (tow hitch) as a long term tester let me know- might be willing to sell it to you.

I'm looking for a Small Truck with a Small Box to carry an Electric Wheelchair. I've seen some really good lifts that are practically like a Crane, to lift heavy objects off the ground and into the back. The box would also be great for carrying boat stuff, like an outboard motor and a can of gas (things you don't want to store inside) and a rolled up inflatable boat. Does it come with a sliding cover to hide things from theives?

I have a hybrid...waited 8 months for it. (Recvd March 2022) I recently got an EcoBoost, awd, fx4, 4ktow....that was a 10 month wait. (Recvd December 2022). Both trucks are XLT versions, each with a few low priced Alacarte options. No constraints for any options I ordered. On just two tanks of gas so far in the EcoBoost, I'm getting 24.2 average mpg. must be that final drive ratio of the tow pkg which helps to get worse mileage...almost as bad as the 23.5 you've experienced on the Tremor.

Very informative, detailed and knowledgeable review. Your camera work and editing skills are top notch as well along with the presentation of the information. Keep up the great work. I simply don't understand why Ford keeps announcing new products and can't deliver on them in volumes. Same thing happened with the Bronco when that was announced. Took more than a year or so for some people to get their vehicles and then when they did, they had issues with the hard tops. Ford's quality control is awful as well. Maybe they should focus on producing a more limited lineup with higher quality. After all, wasn't their old saying, Quality is Job #1? At least this truck is affordable. The F-150 Tremor can get over 70k if you get it totally tricked out.

02:30, well.. it’s about a foot shorter in length and a foot narrower than a current Ranger. It’s closer in size to the old Ranger, the 2011 and earlier version. It’s still smaller than 98% of pickups out there.
@krtwood
@krtwood Год назад
It's more like half a foot narrower than the current Ranger. But it's also 2.5" narrower than it's only competition, Santa Cruz. And that extra 2.5" gets you absolutely nothing in terms of interior space, it's all in the fenders. The Maverick is as narrow as any truck is going to be these days and it's half a foot less long than my extended cab S10. Frankly I wish it had that half a foot in the bed though.

My 1994 Toyota Pickup is "out there" and even though it seats 5 and has a 75" bed it's 6.6 inches shorter than the Maverick and 5.9 inches narrower than the Maverick with its 54" bed. The Maverick is not a compact pickup, a small pickup, or a city pickup. It's a smaller pickup than any other street legal pickup sold new in the US currently.

Based on the Escape, but better looking, steers better, and a low price for a truck if you do not need Ranger level hauling. Seating for 5 is better for most.

@MrLM002
@MrLM002 Год назад
The reason RWD vehicles usually turn tighter than similarly sized FWD and AWD vehicles is because the front CV axles are limited in how much they can articulate, so most steering setups for FWD vehicles are designed to not exceed those limits. You also see this when people lift their FWD and AWD cars where their CV axles die much quicker than with the stock ride height. RWD Vehicles don't have CV axles up front so with proper suspension design you can get obscene steering angles like on the Triumph Spitfire. The Maverick has a turning circle less than 1ft smaller than some current production F-150 models.
