What do you want from your Ford Maverick? The 2026 Ford Maverick is available in five trim levels — XL, XLT, Lariat, Lobo, and Tremor — with a price tag that is expected to start at $28,145 MSRP.

What’s New for the 2026 Ford Maverick?
A year removed from a major update, the 2026 Ford Maverick is not expected to have any significant changes — but that is not to say there will be no updates to the Ford pickup truck. The latest Ford Maverick will feature a revamped powertrain lineup with a front-wheel drive 2.0-liter EcoBoost® engine available for Maverick XL and Maverick XLT trim levels as an alternative to the 2.5-liter Hybrid — which lowers the price for your Ford Maverick.
The 2026 Ford Maverick will add a pair of brand-new exterior color options to the spec sheet that include Orange Fury Metallic Tri-Coat and Marsh Gray. In addition to an updated engine lineup and a pair of new exterior colors, the Ford Maverick is expected to come standard with a FREE one-year subscription of a Ford Connectivity Package with access to Google Maps, Google Voice Assistant, and on-board Wi-Fi, an available power-sliding rear window, and an available conventional spare tire.
Engine Options and Specs
With a reputation built on efficiency, the 2026 Ford Maverick is powered by a standard 191-horsepower 2.5-liter Hybrid four-cylinder that is married to a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) to achieve 42 mpg in the city with front-wheel drive. Available all-wheel drive will improve the capability of the Ford Maverick. When equipped with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost® four-cylinder engine, the Ford Maverick will produce 250 horsepower with front- or all-wheel drive. Ford Maverick Lobo and Tremor models add Advanced 4WD to deliver next-level performance and a 4K Tow Package increases the maximum towing capacity to 4,000 pounds with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost® engine.
Features and Technology
When you slide into the driver’s seat of the 2026 Ford Maverick, you will find a wealth of high-end tech and features that enhance your day-to-day drive.

Ford Co-Pilot360® driver-assist technology is standard and will include Automatic LED High-Beams and Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking.
