Capability You Can Count On

The Ford Maverick’s MPG depends on which of the two incredibly efficient engine options you choose.

The first option is the standard 2.5L FHEV Hybrid engine, which provides an astonishing targeted EPA-estimated 40 city/33 highway/37 combined MPG on a 13.8-gallon tank. With a targeted EPA-estimated 500-mile range, you’ll be able to spend more time with your eyes on the road and less on your fuel gauge.

The Maverick also features an available gas-powered 2.0L EcoBoost® engine in both front-wheel drive and Intelligent All-Wheel Drive configurations. The EcoBoost® engine boasts an EPA-estimated 23 city/30 highway/26 combined MPG on the FWD model and an EPA-estimated 22 city/29 highway/25 combined MPG on the Intelligent AWD model.

The Ford Maverick also comes with standard and available features to help maintain efficiency as you drive. A selection of five drive modes comes standard on the Maverick. These include Normal, Tow/Haul, Slippery, Sport, and Eco modes. These modes help you to maintain a smooth ride and get the best performance possible from your engine in different conditions.

Available driver-assistance features, such as Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go, can also help you stay efficient while driving. This feature allows you to set your speed as you travel and slows your vehicle if traffic ahead slows or stops, which helps you make the most of every mile.

Maintaining Fuel Efficiency

With both engines providing impressive mileage, you want to make sure you’re getting the most out of them. Luckily, there are some steps you can take to help maximize your Ford Maverick MPG.

• Clear Out the Clutter - More weight in your vehicle means more fuel is required to carry it, and even an extra 100 pounds is enough to impact your fuel efficiency. Clearing out unnecessary items, like backpacks, bags, books, or equipment, can really add up in terms of getting extra miles out of your tank.
• Stick to the Speed Limit - The faster you drive, the more efficiency you lose. Keeping to the speed limit helps maintain a steady speed and limits rapid accelerations and hard braking, which can also affect fuel efficiency.
• Check Your Tire Pressure - Underinflated tires can increase fuel consumption since it requires more effort to get them rolling. Frequently checking that your tires are properly inflated can help keep your vehicle running efficiently and reduce tire-tread wear.
• Regular Maintenance - Air filters, spark plugs, oil, and other components can all impact your fuel economy. Keeping to a regular maintenance schedule can help make sure that all the parts of your Ford Maverick, including fuel consumption, are performing at their best.
