Ford recognized a gap between compact crossovers and conventional pickups, and the Maverick fills that space with remarkable precision. This isn’t just a scaled-down version of existing trucks. It’s a purpose-built vehicle that prioritizes practicality, efficiency, and accessibility.
The 2026 Ford Maverick brings exactly what northwest Montana living demands: real truck capability without the massive footprint. This isn’t another oversized pickup. Your new Maverick hauls 1,400 lbs of payload while seating five passengers comfortably. Need to tow? The available 4K Tow Package lets you pull up to 4,000 lbs.
Here’s what makes it special for our area: the hybrid powertrain hits 42 mpg city. Mountain commutes suddenly become affordable without losing the utility you actually need. Downtown Kalispell’s tighter spaces? No problem. Weekend adventures in rough terrain? The 8.3 inches of ground clearance and compact design handle both scenarios perfectly. Check out our complete inventory of new Ford trucks and vans to see how the Maverick compares.
Technology gets a serious upgrade in the 2026 Maverick. The 13.2-inch touchscreen runs SYNC 4 and includes wireless Apple CarPlay plus wireless Android Auto. You’ll connect your phone without cables cluttering the cabin.
Safety tech comes standard with Ford Co-Pilot360. Lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beams handle highway driving confidently. Want more? Available features include a 360-degree camera system that shows you everything around the truck. Pro Trailer Backup Assist and Pro Trailer Hitch Assist take the guesswork out of towing setup.
Higher trims add B&O premium audio and wireless charging. Your cabin becomes a connected workspace that actually works.
The Maverick XL gives you essential capability with both hybrid and EcoBoost engines available. XL Hybrid FWD pairs a 2.5L hybrid engine (191 hp) with a power-split electric CVT. You’ll get 42 mpg city while towing 2,000 lbs.
Prefer more power? XL EcoBoost FWD delivers 250 hp and 280 lb-ft torque through an 8-speed automatic. Fuel economy hits 23 city and 30 highway mpg with the same 2,000-lb towing capacity.
The XLT builds on this foundation with upgraded interior materials and extra convenience features. Performance stays identical, but daily comfort gets better.
Lariat takes your Maverick experience upscale with refined materials and advanced technology throughout. Lariat Hybrid AWD keeps that 191 hp output while adding 8.1 inches of ground clearance. With the 4K Tow Package, you’ll tow 4,000 lbs confidently.
Lariat EcoBoost AWD brings 250 hp, 8.3 inches of clearance, and matching 4,000-lb towing capability. The Lobo variant adds sport-tuned styling for drivers wanting distinctive road presence alongside premium comfort.
The Maverick Tremor tackles northwest Montana’s challenging terrain with specialized suspension, all-terrain tires, and enhanced ground clearance. This package handles rugged trails that would stop conventional trucks, combining serious durability with the Maverick’s proven utility.
