2027 Ford Maverick Preview
After the updates in 2025 and 2026, no major changes are coming for the Ford Maverick in 2027. But just what should you expect from these new trucks? Find out below!
Key Takeaways:
- The standard hybrid earns up to 42 mpg in the city with FWD.
- An available 250-hp turbocharged engine gives buyers a more powerful alternative to the hybrid.
- With its Tow Package, the Maverick can pull up to 4,000 pounds.
Will Ford Make Any Changes to the 2027 Maverick?
Ford gave the Mav a refresh for '25, updating its appearance and making several changes to its features and equipment. Another round of smaller refinements followed for '26.
For '27, the Maverick is likely to look and feel much like the current version, according to Car and Driver. That means buyers can count on the same broad selection of trims and powertrains that have helped distinguish it from larger pickups.
What Engines Are in a Ford Maverick?
The standard 2.5-liter hybrid combines a four-cylinder engine with an electric motor for a total output of 191 horsepower. A CVT handles shifting, and buyers can choose front- or all-wheel drive.
Those looking for more horsepower can opt for the turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, which produces 250 horsepower and uses an eight-speed automatic. On the XL trim, the turbo engine can be paired with front-wheel drive. Move farther up the trim range, and the turbo comes with all-wheel drive.
How Much Can A Ford Maverick Tow and Haul?
Don't let the Maverick's size fool you. It can handle payloads of up to 1,500 pounds, giving it enough capacity for supplies, gear, and plenty of weekend projects. Standard towing capacity is 2,000 pounds, while the available Tow Package raises that figure to 4,000 pounds.
Ford also put plenty of thought into making the bed useful. There's enough room for up to 18 sheets of three-quarter-inch plywood without having to angle the load. A standard 12-volt outlet provides another useful touch, and buyers can add a 110-volt outlet for powering tools, equipment, or accessories away from home.
What Is the Inside of the Ford Maverick Like?
Every Maverick comes as a four-door crew cab, providing easy access to both rows. The back seat works particularly well for kids and shorter trips with adults, while the cabin makes smart use of the available space.
Even entry-level models offer useful conveniences, including remote keyless entry, adjustable front-seat lumbar support, and a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel with audio controls. Moving through the trim lineup adds options such as dual-zone automatic climate control, ambient interior lighting, and power-adjustable front seats.
A 13.2-inch touchscreen comes standard across the range, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. SiriusXM satellite radio, wireless smartphone charging, and a premium B&O Play audio system are among the available upgrades.
How Fuel-Efficient Is the Maverick?
Fuel economy is one of the biggest reasons to consider this hybrid pickup truck. With front-wheel drive, it earns EPA estimates of up to 42 mpg city, 35 mpg highway, and 39 mpg combined. Adding all-wheel drive doesn't dramatically change those numbers much, with estimates reaching 40 mpg city and 37 mpg combined. (EPA estimates for the turbo engine reach up to 23 mpg city, 33 mpg highway, and 26 mpg combined, which is still not too shabby.)
