WE'D LOVE TO OWN THIS TRUCK! 2025 FORD MAVERICK HYBRID REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid receives a significant mid-cycle refresh, with reviewers expressing a strong desire to own this versatile compact pickup. Key updates include the availability of all-wheel drive on the hybrid powertrain, a feature long-requested by consumers, which the reviewers found to be a worthwhile upgrade despite a slight fuel economy penalty. The interior is praised for its unique design and materials, though the large central touchscreen's placement is noted as a minor ergonomic drawback, potentially needing adjustment. The hybrid powertrain is described as peppy and well-suited for city driving, effectively replacing compact SUVs for many buyers due to its practicality, fuel efficiency, and comfortable ride. While the base model offers essential features, the Lariat trim tested includes premium amenities like an 8-speaker B&O sound system and a heated steering wheel. The reviewers highlight its value proposition, affordability, and practicality for everyday use and occasional hauling, making it a highly recommended option.
