2023 Ford Maverick Overview
Introduced as an all-new model for 2022, the Ford Maverick enters 2023 with a number of changes to its features and packages. Most notable is that the top-trim Lariat, which previously came strictly with a 2.0L gas-only engine, can now be ordered as a hybrid, so all three trims have the option of either driveline. There’s also a new off-road Tremor Package, available on the XLT and Lariat with 2.0L, which includes a one-inch lift, advanced part-time AWD with four-wheel lock, and off-road-tuned suspension.
The base XL trim now receives standard cruise control, while ambient lighting has been discontinued on the XL and XLT. New available options for the Maverick – some dependent on trim - include a drop-in or spray-in bedliner, bed tie-down rails, bed divider, tool box, remote starter, connected navigation, 17- or 18-inch black wheels, and Ford Co-Pilot 360 Assist Package. Rapid Red and Velocity Blue exterior shades are gone, while Atlas Blue Metallic and Avalanche Grey are added.
Performance
The Maverick’s base powertrain is a hybrid, combining a 2.5L Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder engine with a hybrid system that delivers a combined 191 horsepower and 155 lb-ft of torque. It’s mated to an automatic continuously variable transmission (CVT) and is strictly front-wheel drive. The optional engine choice is a turbocharged 2.0L “EcoBoost” four-cylinder making 250 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque, with eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
Practicality
The Maverick is based on the same SUV platform as the Escape and Bronco Sport, leading some nay-sayers to complain that it isn’t really a truck; but for those who want a practical compact vehicle with a bed, this is the real deal. Payload capacity is a maximum of 1,500 lbs, and when the tailgate is opened to its halfway position, the truck can carry the ubiquitous 4-by-8 sheet of plywood atop the wheel wells. Towing capacity for both engines is 2,000 lbs, but the 2.0L can be optioned with a maximum towing package that increases it to 4,000 lbs.
The new Tremor package upgrades the AWD system with a twin-clutch rear-drive unit with differential lock, which can send almost all of the rear axle’s power to the left or right wheel. It includes five selectable drive modes and Trail Control, a low-speed cruise control system for off-roading.
Standard features on all Maverick trims include five-passenger seating, fold-up rear seats with under-seat storage, 8-inch centre touchscreen, keyless entry, cruise control, LED headlamps and taillights, locking tailgate, automatic high-beam headlamps, and emergency front braking. Upper trims or option packages can add such items as power heated seats, dual-zone climate control, premium stereo, heated steering wheel, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitoring.
Canadian Pricing
With the base hybrid powertrain, the Maverick starts at $30,100 for the XL; $32,700 for the XLT; and $36,150 for the Lariat. The 2.0L engine with AWD adds $1,000 to each of those prices. The new Tremor package is $3,400.
