I got my AWD 4K XL Maverick a few weeks ago after going back and forth on the hybrid versus the AWD. What decided me was driving each version; the AWD is a much better handling vehicle than the hybrid, and the difference is so great as to be an entirely different vehicle classes. In my opinion, the AWD Maverick is much closer to a WRX in power and handling while the hybrid is a bump-steering truck doing truck things. You could trackday or autocross an AWD Maverick especially if you lowered it slightly but the hybrid's rear is an oversteering monster going into turns. However, for most people driving on public roads, the hybrid is the better choice. The AWD Maverick, despite its looks, is very much in the AWD hot hatchback category. It's shockingly good through bumpy turns. I feel the reviewers of the Maverick are entirely of the "truck doing truck things" while neglecting the driving enthusiast who want a daily driver while also occasionally attending a trackday. Hot hatches like the Ford Focus ST have such reviewers but not the Maverick. Yet when you look at the specs of the AWD...270 hp, AWD, locking differential, unibody construction, independent rear suspension, 4 discs brakes...then it's very much a hot hatch/sportscar and not a truck. I think you could lower the AWD and have a very competent trackday vehicle. The Ford Maverick isn't a 50:50 weight distribution but is 60:40...the same as the Ford Focus ST whose engine it share by the way.

I ordered the 2024 XLT 2.0 FWD last month, missed the 2023 order window by a few weeks last year. Due to long "lead" times I have had a chance to see and read many reviews and I have to reinforce what Austin said. I think this is the best option. Especially since the price of the Lariat is now about $4000 more than 2023 Cost is a big part of my decision to buy a Maverick as well as maintenance record of the 2.0 in my wife's 2014 Escape and some reported issues with the e-CVT/CVT. Going to use this around town, going to Lowes, some trips to visit family... Would have been willing to consider the 2.5 Hybrid for the fuel economy but wanted the FWD and the Hybrid may delay the build. Not going to use this to tow anything, have other truck to do the towing if needed
I bought a Cyber Orange 2022 Maverick XLT 2.0 AWD with FX4 and Luxury packages, drop-in bed, side and tailgate liners, moon-roof, and a few other niceties. So far I love it. Also, a few after market add-ons (mud flaps, side window deflectors, clear 'bra' wrap for hood, fenders and mirrors, a tailgate assist, and color matching body side moldings to protect from parking lot dings). I have got as high as 32 mpg, but average just under 30 on highway.
I love my 22 Hybrid XL with $100 tow hitch receiver. Ordered Sept 09 2021 recieved Dec 27 2021. No cruise control, no power mirrors are no big deal to me. Average 40ish mpgs hwy n city driving.
@orlandopena903 So far, so good. 24,557 miles currently without any issues. I take it to my local Ford every 5k for maintenance. I'm still averaging 40mpgs/520+ miles per tank and keeping my tires at 35psi weekly. Overall, I am satisfied with the truck inside and out
The Maverick is not built on the same line as the Escape. It shares with the Bronco Sport. That being said, I'm sure they will update the screen sometime soon.
I got lucky as well recently. Dealer about an hour from me had a customer back out on a 2023 Maverick XLT w/luxury package & Black Effects package. It's really more truck than I wanted but it's impossible to find a Maverick being sold at MSRP, at least around me. I called on 8 or 9 dealers (within about 4 hours) and all of them were marked up $5k - $9k. I found an XLT that had pretty much exactly what I wanted but it would've cost me $4-$5K more than the one I bought...with FEWER options. So I pulled the trigger. So far, so good. Love the drive and the first short 100 mile round trip I took with it I averaged over 40mpg, over 75% hwy miles. Added spray in bed liner and tonneau cover and some small add-ons to the interior including wireless apple car play.
Awesome video. I've watched so many Maverick videos and this detailed many things others haven't. My 2023 XLT Hybrid with lux is in production now. I picked it over XL for rim upgrade and awesome additions from lux. I'm in Cleveland with the same weather issues. Depreciation discussion is so important. Why wouldn't I order a 2024 Mav and sell my 2023? Drive a car for a year for free or for a profit.
Glad you enjoyed it! More will be coming soon! Only a few days left until order banks open, go get your 24 order in so you can enjoy your free lariat lux for the year!!
I ordered my XLT Maverick with Lux package and the 360. I ordered on July 18 2023 and i was told by Ford today 3/07/24 that they were almost done with it but had some unexpected delays. .
22 hybrid Mav with 10K miles. If you drive as ‘the electronic coach ‘ gauge says, you will exceed the EPA ratings as I do regularly. This is a great ‘car’ truck. Smooth, comfy, quiet…which is how I like it.
Still waiting for my 2023 XLT Hybrid, had to roll the order into a 2024 XLT Hybrid. Ford has offered some price "incentives" to try to offset the increase, but there are no details. So far the purchasing experience has been very disappointing, I placed a $500 down over a year ago with very little followup from Ford. The XLT checks all the boxes for me, probably the last vehicle I will purchase new. For my city driving the mpg looks great. Looks like it will be next year before I can put one in the garage, most people who need a new ride now have probably moved on. Thanks for the video, very well done.
I also had my 2023 get moved to the 2024 which is a XLT Hybrid. At the moment it is in production. Hope you have yours now or close to getting the truck!
I don’t see any comments or reviews regarding longevity and long-term reliability. I want to keep this truck for a long time and I’m conflicted over the 2.0 Eco boost or the hybrid because the 2.0 has more history and reliability behind it versus the hybrid. Anybody have any comments regarding long life and reliability?
Expect the hybrid to last longer. Engine is designed to run at same rpm at all times with help of ECVT. Low stress engine, low heat engine.. should equal longevity. And as for now ECVT are generally lasting 200k plus miles.
Here in Western New York state I drove a rear wheel drive cars and pickup trucks for many years through the '70s and '80s. Then I had a dealer tell me while I was trying to trade in a pickup truck a two-wheel drive Dodge that if it was a 4x4 he would have given me $2,500 more. At that time the four-wheel drive option was only about $1,200 so ever since I've bought the 4x4 models.
How do you feel the hybrid does in rain and snow compared to the AWD? I live in Pennsylvania so we get our share of snow but nothing crazy and obviously we get rain like everyone else. I’m just curious if it would be worth spending the extra money for AWD or if it’s not necessary.
Great video, guys! I have a 2023 Hybrid XL (aka a unicorn) ordered, but my dealer says that I can roll into a 2024 order, so I think I will switch from Area 51 to Cactus Gray, and to the turbo, instead of the hybrid. This video helped with that decision. Although, if I stick with the Hybrid, I may be able to avoid some or all of the new upcharge. Does anyone have more info on how the '23 to '24 order rollover works?
Thanks for checking in! I think the terrain color will be sweet for '24. There is a big part of the ordering that has to do with luck and an attentive sales person that follows up and follows through.
Check out the above link, info on switching from 2023 to 2024 order. The biggest take away, fill out the order before the 17th and the price increase. Talk to your dealership about what Ford credit you will get due to the price increase.
While this video might, and I mean "might" have been relevant for the 2023 Ford Maverick consumer, it is NOT for those wanting a 2024. The basic XL model you recommend is great for those who only want a small pickup with ugly wheels or a business for their fleet. In my humble opinion, if a Maverick consumer wishes to have fun or really enjoy their truck then either the XLT (which you recommended for 2024) or the Lariat because in 2024 the options you might have paid extra for in the 2023 models come standard in 2024. Yes, the base price for all 2024 models is higher than 2023s, but show me a vehicle that didn't rise in price. The Lariat comes with the Luxury package standard, the 2.0 L Ecoboost standard, Co-pilot 360 standard, remote start standard, 400w/110 inverter, an electric sliding rear window standard, and the 2" receiver standard to name a few! The only two options I ordered on my 2024 Lariat Tremor were the Tremor off-road package (suspension upgrade, skid plate, 2" lift, adv 4wd) and the $75 wheel locks so my 17" aluminum rims and 235x65R17 A/T tires. The one option Ford should provide all Hybrid owners is a good fire extinguisher.
I just took delivery of my 2023 maverick XLT hybrid a few days ago. I pre-ordered this truck 10 months ago. It was well worth the wait I paid 30,230 out the door that’s with a few options added my dealer was amazing and honest 👍
Getting ready for a 2024 xlt fwd eco with the 360 package. I'm mostly going back and forth to work, but wanted a small truck. Saw the first design but wanted a 3rd version of the truck. It is in production rn and be getting it soon.
I’d get the ecoboost because they run smooth and AWD is incredible. Replacing a hybrid battery sounds sooo expensive. Everyone I met who has one leased it and gets rid of it before it needs to be replaced.
i ordered a XLT hybrid with CP360, sunroof, Lux package 9/17/22. it finally got a production date to be week of 9/11/23. i have to admit the Hyundai Santa Cruze is looking better for me as time has moved on. not sure id i should keep it, pass on it, or buy it and try to sell for more. any recommendations out there?
The Santa is not really a truck. Hyundai calls it a SAV (Sport Adventure) because the bed can only hold 660 lbs of weight. It basically is a Tucson without the rear hatchback door. Also the bed is shorter, so for less money, you can get more "truck" with the Mav.
I don't agree. I have a loaded Ecoboost lariat AWD, ya $34000. what else are you going to buy that's LOADED for $35,000? I would'nt want to drive a base model. No offense but money is'nt the only reason to buy a Maverick some of us just want a small truck.
We are looking at the XLT simply to get the luxury package with heated seats and such. The one thing that has me really not decided about is getting the hybrid or the ecoboot motor. We live in NC so winters here are not bad. This will not be my daily driver and I have 2 4wheel drive vehicles if it does get bad. This is a vehicle we plan to keep for years and years. We mostly just plan on using it for runs to the dump or goodwill or Lowe's or something like that so it will not be driven many miles per year. I really want the gas mileage of the hybrid but am worried after say 10 years or so I would need to replace the battery in the hybrid where the ecoboost would not have that issue. Any advice?
More items to maintain on the ecoboost vs the hybrid which main substantial maintenance expense is the battery eventually. It all comes out about even.
Yeah one thing that will be a value that you did not mention is on the ecoboost itself which is the All wheel drive which paired with the hitch package (which only comes with the ecoboost) will be a worthwhile thing as people would want to add that as an option later. Also the spray in bed liner would also be selling point to some over the drop in. Both of those options would add. Its odd neither of you talked about the towing aspects for the all wheel drive and that being a major factor for the ecoboost.
The maverick is not made on the same line as the escape. It shares the same unibody construction and parts but it’s made in Mexico compared to escape is Louisville Kentucky
I have a 22 hybrid lariat does anyone know why the transmisión makes a clunk noise when you come to stop is that an issue that I Should address to the dealer?
@@PerformanceOnWheels Like its spelled with an "-rid" rather than a "-red". I wouldn't have said anything but the fact that 2 of you were saying it the same way it had to be a regional thing. Just curious. I'm in PA. Hoping to get my own Maverick any day now.
Crazy how the price keeps going up. I just ordered a green 2025 Maverick Xlt with the 4k towing, black appearance package, and rubber bed mat/ floor mats and i signed $34,870
@jerrycasey1635 I swapped some stuff around and fixed my order to a eruption green XLT FX4 with 2k towing. It was 34,700 so it was cheaper to do that option
I can't get past the stupid rotary dial shifter. If I'm backing in my utility trailer that's going to be annoying. No sale for me. The 2.0L EcoBoost would've been perfect being it's only a 3k GVWR trailer.

There's no comparison. The hybrid is on a different level compared to the EcoGuzzler. The hybrid is like fine sushi from a high-end Japanese restaurant while the Ecoguzzler is like California rolls from a gas station.
@@MoneyMaking861 It actually did amazing in the snow earlier this year. I took her to mammoth this year and she ate up the snow pack like a scooby-snack. No wonder Ford is now adding a $1500 upcharge to the hybrid while they're pretty much giving away the Ecoguzzler. I wouldn't be surprised if down the line Ford starts offering a huge discount to the Maverick's with the 2.0
@@peter8142 you get a lot more horsepower and torque with that "ecoguzzler" and can tow 4k with the right package. That gives the truck significantly increased towing and light work capacity. You have the yuppie/housewife version dude....
The only thing I tow around is my fat wife and the hybrid still does amazing. The majority of Ecoguzzler owners who glamour about the 4k towing capability (if equipped & at a higher cost) of their 2.0 only use it for those purposes about 0001% of the time (according to statistics). Call it what you want, I'll take the hybrid over the EG anytime of the day.
We call them ENGINES ! Not motors if they are ICE ! I believe that Ford has removed the heated wipers...no longer available on any trim. 400 Watt inverter in console as a stand alone option no longer available. FX4 pkg now requires 4KTow ...no longer separate. 'Full size spare'. seems to now be included with FX4. Many other items changed for 2024 model year...so watch out. Carvana is no deal to sell to...they only pay way below wholesale. I own two 2022 mavericks. One an XLT Hybrid, the other and XLT EcoBoost, AWD, FX4, 4KTow. hybrid has 9500 miles on itself and Eco has just 3500 miles. No real issues with either that TSBs and Recalls could not fix. I have gotten up to 530 miles per tank on hybrid. hybrid can get as bad as 21mpg or as good as 50 mpg....It hates speeds over 75mph. (Just average those two to get a real world figure for near what one can expect overall). EcoBoost with 4ktow, which gives different rear end ratio averages about 25mpg at best. EcoBoost with 8 speed is a dangerous vehicle to attempt to pull from a stop sign in front of traffic. No guts from the standstill. Also this vehicle with it's rear suspension, rocks very slightly at freeway speeds and can cause mild motion sickness. You guys may possibly be correct that the AWD EcoBoost may go around low speed corners more quickly. The two vehicles drive very similarly, yet I'd take the Hybrid as my favorite even not considering it's mileage benefit. At current prices for 2024 my, neither is a deal anymore. To replace my 2022 hybrid XLT would cost about $5600 more now. To replace my 2022 EcoBoost would cost about $2975 more now. I have always hated the low density foam of the seats, yet never a back ache, even driving coast to coast twice. I still hate that there is no angle adjustment for base cushion....it has too much under. thigh support currently. I paid $2280 more for the XLT as I wanted the cruise. Hate the convoluted controls for same. Now XL model comes with cruise, yet still no pwr mirrors.....yet now costs about $2275 more than for the 2022my. Ford has found lots of ways to cheat on everything, gradually increasing pricing as well. Judging from the show of accident damage for these on forums, this vehicle is very weak, thin metal. Overall a very good 'appliance' vehicle, surely not a sports vehicle. Formerly a lot of bang for the buck. Now it's a tossup compared to other vehicles and prices.
@@PerformanceOnWheels it was an informative upload . I have hybrids XLT and XL (my company) but I still learned stuff I didn't know. Liked and subscribed.
my 2022 hybrid got 600 miles on its first tank of gas, driving in the smokey mountain highways and some 100 miles on interstate 75 now with 29,500 miles on iy with trips to texan, oregon, and north dakota, i have a good feel for how it runs. it is the most stable vehicle i have ever driven on the highway, easy to drive 500 to 700 miles in a day no wind sway gas mileage is very affected by outside temperature. if temps are between 70 and 90 degrees gas mileage can be in to 45 - 50 mpg when driving below 50 mph around 40 if driving at 65 mph gas mileage drops drastically as temps drop below 70 and the heater calls for heat
Trading my 2022 Tacoma STX in for a 2024 XLT Maverick, Toyota was always my first choice but Toyota Quality is going down. My Maverick should be in within the next month, in transit.
The whole idea of the hybrid is basic transportation, with great mileage....The 2.0 defeats the purpose if you want to hotrod it and get low 20s on mileage....
You guys drive terribly if you got less that 42mpg avg in the Hybrid, mostly city/country. I've gotten over 600 miles per tank many times(spring summer fall). 37mpg road tripping on the highway, Chicago to Nashville. Also i've never experienced torque steer, maybe the Conti's aren't as good as the Michelins ('23 Lariat Lux $34K out the door, Value Engaged).
Out of the 7 people I know with hybrid mavericks I don’t know anyone that is getting 42 mpg…. City only yes. However going 70-80 on highways it drops much lower
@@PerformanceOnWheelsya here in Ca you get ran off the road if you drive slower then 80 mph and our speed limit is 65 I have even been passed by CHP when I was driving 70mph in my Kenworth T880 that scared the heck out of me because that could have been a big ticket. 😂
@@PerformanceOnWheels You provide sources for your ridiculous claim. "Engine fire" is not the same as "randomly blow up." You know that it isn't. Saying remarkably stupid shit like this doesn't look edgy, it makes you look stupid. I have absolute proof these vehicles don't "randomly blow up." The proof is that you are driving them. No sane person gets behind the wheel of a vehicle that might randomly blow up. In this case, it's too bad sane and smart are not synonymous.
The difference between one and the other is nothing more than the prices, they advertised the Maverik for 22 thousand dollars and it is false, when you arrive at the agency it costs 26 or 30 thousand dollars

Going to use this around town, going to Lowes, some trips to visit family... Would have been willing to consider the 2.5 Hybrid for the fuel economy but wanted the FWD and the Hybrid may delay the build. Not going to use this to tow anything, have other truck to do the towing if needed
I bought a Cyber Orange 2022 Maverick XLT 2.0 AWD with FX4 and Luxury packages, drop-in bed, side and tailgate liners, moon-roof, and a few other niceties. So far I love it. Also, a few after market add-ons (mud flaps, side window deflectors, clear 'bra' wrap for hood, fenders and mirrors, a tailgate assist, and color matching body side moldings to protect from parking lot dings). I have got as high as 32 mpg, but average just under 30 on highway.
I love my 22 Hybrid XL with $100 tow hitch receiver. Ordered Sept 09 2021 recieved Dec 27 2021. No cruise control, no power mirrors are no big deal to me. Average 40ish mpgs hwy n city driving.
23s and newer do have crusie control now!
How has the car held up?
@orlandopena903 So far, so good. 24,557 miles currently without any issues. I take it to my local Ford every 5k for maintenance. I'm still averaging 40mpgs/520+ miles per tank and keeping my tires at 35psi weekly. Overall, I am satisfied with the truck inside and out
Great review. Your discussion of trims gives me lots to think about.
XL in CA for sure. Dig the steel rims too
The Maverick is not built on the same line as the Escape. It shares with the Bronco Sport. That being said, I'm sure they will update the screen sometime soon.
Truth! Escape is in Louisville. I gotta keep an eye on that young man. 😕. Thank you for the correction!!
Great job on this video! You covered most of everything I was wondering about since this vehicle is not available in any dealer.
I got lucky as well recently. Dealer about an hour from me had a customer back out on a 2023 Maverick XLT w/luxury package & Black Effects package. It's really more truck than I wanted but it's impossible to find a Maverick being sold at MSRP, at least around me. I called on 8 or 9 dealers (within about 4 hours) and all of them were marked up $5k - $9k. I found an XLT that had pretty much exactly what I wanted but it would've cost me $4-$5K more than the one I bought...with FEWER options. So I pulled the trigger. So far, so good. Love the drive and the first short 100 mile round trip I took with it I averaged over 40mpg, over 75% hwy miles. Added spray in bed liner and tonneau cover and some small add-ons to the interior including wireless apple car play.
Awesome video. I've watched so many Maverick videos and this detailed many things others haven't.
My 2023 XLT Hybrid with lux is in production now. I picked it over XL for rim upgrade and awesome additions from lux. I'm in Cleveland with the same weather issues.
Depreciation discussion is so important. Why wouldn't I order a 2024 Mav and sell my 2023? Drive a car for a year for free or for a profit.
Glad you enjoyed it! More will be coming soon! Only a few days left until order banks open, go get your 24 order in so you can enjoy your free lariat lux for the year!!
I ordered my XLT Maverick with Lux package and the 360. I ordered on July 18 2023 and i was told by Ford today 3/07/24 that they were almost done with it but had some unexpected delays. .
22 hybrid Mav with 10K miles. If you drive as ‘the electronic coach ‘ gauge says, you will exceed the EPA ratings as I do regularly. This is a great ‘car’ truck. Smooth, comfy, quiet…which is how I like it.
Still waiting for my 2023 XLT Hybrid, had to roll the order into a 2024 XLT Hybrid. Ford has offered some price "incentives" to try to offset the increase, but there are no details. So far the purchasing experience has been very disappointing, I placed a $500 down over a year ago with very little followup from Ford. The XLT checks all the boxes for me, probably the last vehicle I will purchase new. For my city driving the mpg looks great. Looks like it will be next year before I can put one in the garage, most people who need a new ride now have probably moved on. Thanks for the video, very well done.
I am in same boat waiting is crazy. Every item is imported so vote for MAGA!
I also had my 2023 get moved to the 2024 which is a XLT Hybrid. At the moment it is in production. Hope you have yours now or close to getting the truck!
I ordered a lairat 2024 not got it yet but with a 2.0 and 8 speed tranny
Great comp, guys. Thanks.
Of course!
I’m originally from Minnesota. I make a bunch of Maverick content as well. I owned the Tremor if you have questions.
Awesome! Where are you now?
I don’t see any comments or reviews regarding longevity and long-term reliability. I want to keep this truck for a long time and I’m conflicted over the 2.0 Eco boost or the hybrid because the 2.0 has more history and reliability behind it versus the hybrid. Anybody have any comments regarding long life and reliability?
Time will tell....
Expect the hybrid to last longer. Engine is designed to run at same rpm at all times with help of ECVT. Low stress engine, low heat engine.. should equal longevity. And as for now ECVT are generally lasting 200k plus miles.
we got a 2022 xl mav hybrid, were going in on saturday to order 2024 xlt awd ,hitch ,bed coating and under coat...
Here in Western New York state I drove a rear wheel drive cars and pickup trucks for many years through the '70s and '80s. Then I had a dealer tell me while I was trying to trade in a pickup truck a two-wheel drive Dodge that if it was a 4x4 he would have given me $2,500 more. At that time the four-wheel drive option was only about $1,200 so ever since I've bought the 4x4 models.
You probably paid that much extra in gas and maintenance
The hybrid engine is half the point of getting a maverick. You can get AWD on hundreds of other vehicles.
going for the hybrid XL with 360 copilot. I will keep my 4WD F150 with XLT luxury package for towing, hauling and vacations.
Just bought an AWD--had a car with a CVT and will never make that mistake again
How do you feel the hybrid does in rain and snow compared to the AWD? I live in Pennsylvania so we get our share of snow but nothing crazy and obviously we get rain like everyone else. I’m just curious if it would be worth spending the extra money for AWD or if it’s not necessary.
Great video, guys! I have a 2023 Hybrid XL (aka a unicorn) ordered, but my dealer says that I can roll into a 2024 order, so I think I will switch from Area 51 to Cactus Gray, and to the turbo, instead of the hybrid. This video helped with that decision.
Although, if I stick with the Hybrid, I may be able to avoid some or all of the new upcharge. Does anyone have more info on how the '23 to '24 order rollover works?
Thanks for checking in! I think the terrain color will be sweet for '24. There is a big part of the ordering that has to do with luck and an attentive sales person that follows up and follows through.
th-cam.com/video/Vb0MkBBqsv8/w-d-xo.html
Check out the above link, info on switching from 2023 to 2024 order. The biggest take away, fill out the order before the 17th and the price increase. Talk to your dealership about what Ford credit you will get due to the price increase.
@@DanielPerez-mb7wm , Thanks!
you are wrong. it does not have a cvt with a rubber band. it has an Ecvt with a chain and planetary gears
Yep. Correct.
While this video might, and I mean "might" have been relevant for the 2023 Ford Maverick consumer, it is NOT for those wanting a 2024. The basic XL model you recommend is great for those who only want a small pickup with ugly wheels or a business for their fleet. In my humble opinion, if a Maverick consumer wishes to have fun or really enjoy their truck then either the XLT (which you recommended for 2024) or the Lariat because in 2024 the options you might have paid extra for in the 2023 models come standard in 2024. Yes, the base price for all 2024 models is higher than 2023s, but show me a vehicle that didn't rise in price. The Lariat comes with the Luxury package standard, the 2.0 L Ecoboost standard, Co-pilot 360 standard, remote start standard, 400w/110 inverter, an electric sliding rear window standard, and the 2" receiver standard to name a few! The only two options I ordered on my 2024 Lariat Tremor were the Tremor off-road package (suspension upgrade, skid plate, 2" lift, adv 4wd) and the $75 wheel locks so my 17" aluminum rims and 235x65R17 A/T tires. The one option Ford should provide all Hybrid owners is a good fire extinguisher.
Did Ford fix the Hybrid recall issue for 2024?
As far as them blowing up?..... or what recall?
I ordered a 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD Lariat. 🙂
I just took delivery of my 2023 maverick XLT hybrid a few days ago. I pre-ordered this truck 10 months ago. It was well worth the wait I paid 30,230 out the door that’s with a few options added my dealer was amazing and honest 👍
Getting ready for a 2024 xlt fwd eco with the 360 package. I'm mostly going back and forth to work, but wanted a small truck. Saw the first design but wanted a 3rd version of the truck. It is in production rn and be getting it soon.
I’d get the ecoboost because they run smooth and AWD is incredible. Replacing a hybrid battery sounds sooo expensive. Everyone I met who has one leased it and gets rid of it before it needs to be replaced.
i ordered a XLT hybrid with CP360, sunroof, Lux package 9/17/22. it finally got a production date to be week of 9/11/23. i have to admit the Hyundai Santa Cruze is looking better for me as time has moved on. not sure id i should keep it, pass on it, or buy it and try to sell for more. any recommendations out there?
The Santa is not really a truck. Hyundai calls it a SAV (Sport Adventure) because the bed can only hold 660 lbs of weight. It basically is a Tucson without the rear hatchback door. Also the bed is shorter, so for less money, you can get more "truck" with the Mav.
I don't agree. I have a loaded Ecoboost lariat AWD, ya $34000. what else are you going to buy that's LOADED for $35,000? I would'nt want to drive a base model. No offense but money is'nt the only reason to buy a Maverick some of us just want a small truck.
Have you watched our latest video with our c4?
We are looking at the XLT simply to get the luxury package with heated seats and such. The one thing that has me really not decided about is getting the hybrid or the ecoboot motor. We live in NC so winters here are not bad. This will not be my daily driver and I have 2 4wheel drive vehicles if it does get bad. This is a vehicle we plan to keep for years and years. We mostly just plan on using it for runs to the dump or goodwill or Lowe's or something like that so it will not be driven many miles per year. I really want the gas mileage of the hybrid but am worried after say 10 years or so I would need to replace the battery in the hybrid where the ecoboost would not have that issue. Any advice?
More items to maintain on the ecoboost vs the hybrid which main substantial maintenance expense is the battery eventually. It all comes out about even.
People is the spray in liner better then hard too one please let me know asap !!!!! Thank u great video
Spray in is substantially better than a drop in.
good review guys
I wish we could get select shift on the ecoboost
Agreed. Hopefully they come out with an ST🤞🏼🤞🏼
These guys really tryin to get their steps in during the beginning of the video
10k daily goal.
Yeah one thing that will be a value that you did not mention is on the ecoboost itself which is the All wheel drive which paired with the hitch package (which only comes with the ecoboost) will be a worthwhile thing as people would want to add that as an option later. Also the spray in bed liner would also be selling point to some over the drop in. Both of those options would add. Its odd neither of you talked about the towing aspects for the all wheel drive and that being a major factor for the ecoboost.
Just bought a hybrid lariat for 30k at msrp. Love it so far after 1k miles.
I just bought a lariat as well! Check out my new video on it!
The smaller tank is like the ECO Cruze, they want you to have less gas to play with the vehicle's weight on a "FULL TANK"
The maverick is not made on the same line as the escape. It shares the same unibody construction and parts but it’s made in Mexico compared to escape is Louisville Kentucky
Yes. Party foul on the mouth. You are correct!
I work for ford at Louisville assembly plant👍🏻
It’s the battery that makes it heavier?
Yes.
Very helpful vid actually 👍👍
Glad it helped!
I have a 22 hybrid lariat does anyone know why the transmisión makes a clunk noise when you come to stop is that an issue that I Should address to the dealer?
Mine has been doing the same thing. Feels like it keeps getting more aggressive too... Was actually going to ask my service department about it
I call ford and they told me to bring it in for a diagnostic
Good to know. Will probably have to do the same
Where do you guys live that Hybrid is spoken "hi-bread"? Never heard it read that way.
Never mind, heard Minnesota.
How do you pronounce it? That's the only way I've heard people say it😂
@@PerformanceOnWheels Like its spelled with an "-rid" rather than a "-red". I wouldn't have said anything but the fact that 2 of you were saying it the same way it had to be a regional thing. Just curious. I'm in PA. Hoping to get my own Maverick any day now.
Hey guys Ford Maverick has an e CVT no belt it is not a CVT no belt to stretch e CVT
My bad! Thank you! We fixed it with some overlay
How long will the front tires last on the hybrid FWD?
Crazy how the price keeps going up. I just ordered a green 2025 Maverick Xlt with the 4k towing, black appearance package, and rubber bed mat/ floor mats and i signed $34,870
Even though I have a 2024, I'm tempted to get a green, hybrid all wheel drive.....
@jerrycasey1635 I swapped some stuff around and fixed my order to a eruption green XLT FX4 with 2k towing. It was 34,700 so it was cheaper to do that option
I can't get past the stupid rotary dial shifter. If I'm backing in my utility trailer that's going to be annoying. No sale for me. The 2.0L EcoBoost would've been perfect being it's only a 3k GVWR trailer.
These absolutely don't run down "the same assembly line" as the escape. Made in US vs Mexico.
They have a used 2022 xtl malverik hybrid in my town for$36900 with 3,652 miles and they also have two 2022 used lariat hybrids for $38900 and $40,900
Are these good deals or can i have them lower the price? In in clovis california.
I will trade in my 2009 touring prius with 144000 miles.
That XLT is not a bad deal in this current market.
@@PerformanceOnWheels iam gonna go test river it this sat
I want a much better stereo and the other niceties you get with the Lariat so if I did order it that is the only trim I would want.
There's no comparison. The hybrid is on a different level compared to the EcoGuzzler. The hybrid is like fine sushi from a high-end Japanese restaurant while the Ecoguzzler is like California rolls from a gas station.
No.
Yeah until it snows. I guess you're good if u down south.
@@MoneyMaking861
It actually did amazing in the snow earlier this year. I took her to mammoth this year and she ate up the snow pack like a scooby-snack. No wonder Ford is now adding a $1500 upcharge to the hybrid while they're pretty much giving away the Ecoguzzler. I wouldn't be surprised if down the line Ford starts offering a huge discount to the Maverick's with the 2.0
@@peter8142 you get a lot more horsepower and torque with that "ecoguzzler" and can tow 4k with the right package. That gives the truck significantly increased towing and light work capacity. You have the yuppie/housewife version dude....
The only thing I tow around is my fat wife and the hybrid still does amazing. The majority of Ecoguzzler owners who glamour about the 4k towing capability (if equipped & at a higher cost) of their 2.0 only use it for those purposes about 0001% of the time (according to statistics). Call it what you want, I'll take the hybrid over the EG anytime of the day.
I'm surprised that they are surprised that the hybrid weighs more... It's literally another motor and a battery pack system.
If you look under an AWD vs a hybrid you would see why we are surprised.
@@PerformanceOnWheels I just bought a 2024 so I'll have to take a look underneath it
😂killing me with the "High-Bread"
👋🍞
We call them ENGINES ! Not motors if they are ICE !
I believe that Ford has removed the heated wipers...no longer available on any trim.
400 Watt inverter in console as a stand alone option no longer available.
FX4 pkg now requires 4KTow ...no longer separate.
'Full size spare'. seems to now be included with FX4.
Many other items changed for 2024 model year...so watch out.
Carvana is no deal to sell to...they only pay way below wholesale.
I own two 2022 mavericks.
One an XLT Hybrid, the other and XLT EcoBoost, AWD, FX4, 4KTow.
hybrid has 9500 miles on itself and Eco has just 3500 miles.
No real issues with either that TSBs and Recalls could not fix.
I have gotten up to 530 miles per tank on hybrid.
hybrid can get as bad as 21mpg or as good as 50 mpg....It hates speeds over 75mph. (Just average those two to get a real world figure for near what one can expect overall).
EcoBoost with 4ktow, which gives different rear end ratio averages about 25mpg at best.
EcoBoost with 8 speed is a dangerous vehicle to attempt to pull from a stop sign in front of traffic. No guts from the standstill. Also this vehicle with it's rear suspension, rocks very slightly at freeway speeds and can cause mild motion sickness.
You guys may possibly be correct that the AWD EcoBoost may go around low speed corners more quickly.
The two vehicles drive very similarly, yet I'd take the Hybrid as my favorite even not considering it's mileage benefit.
At current prices for 2024 my, neither is a deal anymore.
To replace my 2022 hybrid XLT would cost about $5600 more now.
To replace my 2022 EcoBoost would cost about $2975 more now.
I have always hated the low density foam of the seats, yet never a back ache, even driving coast to coast twice.
I still hate that there is no angle adjustment for base cushion....it has too much under. thigh support currently.
I paid $2280 more for the XLT as I wanted the cruise. Hate the convoluted controls for same.
Now XL model comes with cruise, yet still no pwr mirrors.....yet now costs about $2275 more than for the 2022my.
Ford has found lots of ways to cheat on everything, gradually increasing pricing as well.
Judging from the show of accident damage for these on forums, this vehicle is very weak, thin metal.
Overall a very good 'appliance' vehicle, surely not a sports vehicle. Formerly a lot of bang for the buck.
Now it's a tossup compared to other vehicles and prices.
No belts in eCVT🤦♂️
Realized after editing, fix is in the description
E-cvt is not cvt. Geez guys.
Excellent catch!
No Belt... A belt that would scare away the informed buyers
@@PerformanceOnWheels it was an informative upload . I have hybrids XLT and XL (my company) but I still learned stuff I didn't know. Liked and subscribed.
Motors are electric.
Engines run on fuel.
!
Then why are the things that hold the engine called motor mounts?
I think I'm convinced - I'm not going to get the high bred!
Slice it!
Your mpg numbers are way off. I consistently get 49-50 around town 33 hwy.
Depends greatly on where you driving. If you are staying under 40mph I would agree with what your numbers are.
my 2022 hybrid got 600 miles on its first tank of gas, driving in the smokey mountain highways and some 100 miles on interstate 75 now with 29,500 miles on iy with trips to texan, oregon, and north dakota, i have a good feel for how it runs. it is the most stable vehicle i have ever driven on the highway, easy to drive 500 to 700 miles in a day no wind sway gas mileage is very affected by outside temperature. if temps are between 70 and 90 degrees gas mileage can be in to 45 - 50 mpg when driving below 50 mph around 40 if driving at 65 mph gas mileage drops drastically as temps drop below 70 and the heater calls for heat
just put in an order for a new one base hybrid
Awesome!!
Trading my 2022 Tacoma STX in for a 2024 XLT Maverick, Toyota was always my first choice but Toyota Quality is going down. My Maverick should be in within the next month, in transit.
You will love it!
Not cheap anymore. Now they start at 28K ! They killed the value deal vehicle. A basic XLT with a few options is now 35K.
The whole idea of the hybrid is basic transportation, with great mileage....The 2.0 defeats the purpose if you want to hotrod it and get low 20s on mileage....
The wheels on the XL are atrocious imo
Agreed, those have been ditched
Wow. A 21 year old with two mavericks!
lol
I’ll drive any of them
So the Hybrid is laid out like a 1984 Dodge Caravan? FWD and solid beam rear axle with a 4 cylinder. Wow! We are living in modern times!
Yup😂
You guys drive terribly if you got less that 42mpg avg in the Hybrid, mostly city/country. I've gotten over 600 miles per tank many times(spring summer fall). 37mpg road tripping on the highway, Chicago to Nashville.
Also i've never experienced torque steer, maybe the Conti's aren't as good as the Michelins ('23 Lariat Lux $34K out the door, Value Engaged).
Out of the 7 people I know with hybrid mavericks I don’t know anyone that is getting 42 mpg….
City only yes. However going 70-80 on highways it drops much lower
@@PerformanceOnWheelsya here in Ca you get ran off the road if you drive slower then 80 mph and our speed limit is 65 I have even been passed by CHP when I was driving 70mph in my Kenworth T880 that scared the heck out of me because that could have been a big ticket. 😂
The hybrid can randomly blow up? What are you goofs babbling about?
Look it up, has happened to a few of them.
@@PerformanceOnWheels You provide sources for your ridiculous claim. "Engine fire" is not the same as "randomly blow up." You know that it isn't. Saying remarkably stupid shit like this doesn't look edgy, it makes you look stupid.
I have absolute proof these vehicles don't "randomly blow up." The proof is that you are driving them. No sane person gets behind the wheel of a vehicle that might randomly blow up. In this case, it's too bad sane and smart are not synonymous.
This may be the only vehicle in the world with no rear window defogger.
I would not want one of these in the salt country, they will quickly rust out.

I have been waiting well over a year for 1 but they sell you 2. Something smells with FORD. Glad for you sucks for others that just want 1
The difference between one and the other is nothing more than the prices, they advertised the Maverik for 22 thousand dollars and it is false, when you arrive at the agency it costs 26 or 30 thousand dollars
I was out the door at 24k. Prices aren't off at all. It's just hard to get one for those prices.
