2025 FORD MAVERICK HYBRID REVIEW AND MPG TEST

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid receives a significant refresh, with the reviewer highlighting its exceptional value and improved hybrid system. Key upgrades include the availability of AWD for the hybrid powertrain and a doubled towing capacity to 4,000 lbs. The interior sees a new 13.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, though the loss of physical climate controls is noted as a minor drawback. The reviewer praises the refined braking system, smooth hybrid operation comparable to Toyota's best, and impressive real-world fuel economy, achieving 42 MPG with AWD. Despite a slightly stiff ride and less charming styling than the pre-refresh model, the Maverick Hybrid is lauded for its solid build quality, quiet cabin, and overall driving experience, especially considering its price point. The reviewer concludes that the Maverick Hybrid remains an "S tier" buy and the "truck that 99% of Americans need," offering unparalleled value, particularly when purchased at lower trims or with discounts.
