2023 Ford Maverick: Big Capabilities
The 2023 Ford Maverick earns its name by being unorthodox in some fundamental ways and earns its Ford badge by performing in every way that matters. This compact truck has a base MSRP of $22,595, an affordable entry price for enviable capabilities, a plush ride, and sought-after equipment. If you don’t need a full-sized pickup, the new Ford Maverick has a value proposition that stands out in a growing and hotly competitive class.
Powertrain Options
Drivers who visit our Shelbyville, KY, Ford dealership to check out the Ford Maverick are pleasantly surprised to see that the truck’s base powertrain is hybridized. This powertrain includes a 2.5-liter inline-four engine, a 1.1-kWh electric battery, and an electric motor, which combine to produce 191 horsepower and 155 lb-ft of torque. Front-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission are also included in the hybridized powertrain.Being Kentucky Ford dealers, we know some area drivers will want even more power. The Ford Maverick doesn’t disappoint in this regard because the pickup is available with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers a stout 277 lb-ft of torque and 250 horsepower. This powerplant pairs with a responsive eight-speed automatic transmission and either front- or all-wheel drive.

Pickups with the hybrid powertrain can tow as much as 2,000 lb with the right equipment. Trucks with the turbocharged engine and the optional 4K Tow package can tow up to 4,000 lb without breaking a sweat.As if the numbers just provided weren’t impressive enough, the Ford Maverick is a mighty hauler.
