- We got our long-term 2022 Ford Maverick pickup on our highway fuel-economy test, and we were really impressed by the results! There's not much reason to get the hybrid over this if you do a lot of highway driving.

#maverick #ecoboost #mpg - Auta a dopravní prostředky
This was very informative. I have a Lariat Ecoboost on the way so it's great to know that it can average 30 mpg in actual regular driving, not fluffed up EPA driving. That's what my Honda Civic 1.5T got a couple of years ago. So the fact that a small pickup truck with AWD can achieve mpgs from what a compact sedan with FWD can is astounding. And the Hybrid just blows all of them out of the water! Good job Ford!
The Civic 1.5T actually gets 40mpg+ highway 🙂
@@Eugen-E No, that's the 2.0 Naturally Aspirated 4 cylinder that gets 40mpg. I had a 1.5T Civic and I averaged exactly 30mpg at any given time.
@@CJDiecast On the highway, 1.5T gets over 40. Even the Si gets 40. This YT channel has mpg tests with civic 1.5T that confirms 40+ mpg hwy. 30mpg that's in the city.
@CJ HotWheels you will be disappointed if you think the turbo mav will be as fuel efficient as a 1.5t civic. The civic is far better in that aspect.
@Kalvin Thomas The only thing that makes the ford quicker is its all wheel drive launch. For regular daily driving, the civic is certainly much more punchy. And, it can turn!
I like your highway MPG testing method, and that you test many vehicles so there is a good database for comparison. Yesterday's posting of the hybrid Maverick was an eye opener, especially if you do mostly highway driving and live in a colder climate. The extra power and 4x4 in the turbo could be the better option for many folks. A test driving both trucks around the streets of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti would be an interesting comparison for those of us that do more stop and go driving.
Great to see this along with checking the actual rather than just trusting the computer. 30mpg is awesome for this vehicle.
Thanks for the video ! That highway time lapse was outstanding...you've got a lot of 18 wheeler traffic in Mich !
That's crazy! The hybrid version you just did was 33 miles to the gallon. Not bad for the upgrade!
The hybrid shines in city driving. There will be a MUCH higher difference between the two if you commute in stop and go traffic.
Thanks for the awesome review. I actually drive and cruise between 70-80mph. It is really good to know is not a bogus mpg rating.
I have a blue XLT FX4 identical to that one. terrific vehicle! Two weeks with it now, no disappointments!
That seems really good for a 2.0 eco boost AWD. What many people don't understand about the hybrid power train is that it really shines in city driving vs highway cruising where you don't get all of the benefit of the battery power. That said I think I would go with the 2.0 Eco Boost AWD .
I've got the 2.0 AWD and I do get between 32 (worst) to 38 (best, on highway) mpg, but doing so is quite hard due to the Maverick's tendency to "keep revs" when coasting. For normal non-mindful driving it's more around 28 mpg but you can extend the range to extraordinary distance by rarely using the brakes, going 65 mph on the highway, and not using cruise control. The hybrid does all that for you except the 65 mph.
@@langhamp8912what type of fuel range are you getting with it?
Ford is crushing it with a few key autos. The competition is going to have a hard time keeping up! Nice going Ford! 👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome. Well done!
just ordered a 24 XLT FX4 4k. Can't wait to get it.
Charlie, Two truck-like vehicles being tested at the same time is really pushing the envelope. Well done.
We won’t rest until all the unibody trucks are tested.
@@DailyMotor Frame? Who needs a stinkin' frame under their pickup?
Really solid video man. I was looking for so long info on how the FX4 and 4K Tow would affect the mpg. All my driving is highway so 30 mpg on a truck is crazy to think.
Same here. If I can get 30 or close I’m very happy.
The non turbo Subaru Baja automatics got 28 but not near the torque as the Ecoboost. So I've seen it. But not with turbo torque.
I recently ordered the XLT with AWD. Coming from my current 33.7 mpg Focus it makes me feel a lot better about the purchase seeing you get 29.9 mpg on highway. With the bigger gas tank I should be able to go farther in the Maverick than my Focus before needing to refuel.
How long was the wait from ordering to delivery? Thinking of ordering one since any that are in stock seem to have a minimum $10-15k markup over MSRP.
@@ChrisVZ77 I ordered the Maverick in mid-January, but I never got beyond the factory accepting my order in the process. My Focus was having repeated issues in April/May so I gave up on driving it, was borrowing a family members car, and in late June I got an Escape I was lucky to find in stock at a local dealership. So I canceled my Maverick and went with an Escape instead because I couldn't wait any longer for a working vehicle. Best of luck with your Maverick, I've been seeing a handful on the road lately.
Boost retains more power at high altitudes too, for those of you in the mountains.
My commute is mostly hwy in snowcountry. I want to tow a 3K lb boat/trailer locally too. An EcoBoost Maverick AWD 4K would work well for my driving.
Preorderd mine 9-28-21, got a build date March 28th 2022, XLT cactus gray 2.0T, luxury and FX4 packages, sunroof, rear manual window and all weather mats, 31k
That’s twice as good as my F150. I can’t wait for the change.
Solid test. I get similar numbers, up to 32 at times, if I drive my Lariat AWD around 65 mph. And thanks for not camping in the left lane. 😂
How about if you drive it around 75mph how is your mileage thanks
AKA "left lane bandits"
Have 6300 miles on my XL ecoboost and I show 26.8 mpg. Local driving no long trips. Very happy with the truck.
I bought a c- max energy, gets 700 miles on tank. If the hybrid truck gets anything close to that I'm a truck lover again!!!
That right there was enough to sell me. Thank you.
Just got the hybrid, and have about 2k miles on it now. I dont know if you are using the ethanol crap, or what your conditions are, but i just did a 300mile non stop, and got 39. Was also set on 72. Overall average is now 41,6.
Definitely a hard choice between the two. What was it, a difference between 5mpg vs the hybrid? Curious on city mpg driving. I drive 40 miles highway and lots of city driving one way. Killing about 12-14 mpg in my Chevy. Looking for the switch
Not to take away focus from the maverick but I think this is a perfect segment for Subaru to enter
Well you earned a new subscriber with me well done! Do you have another video where you’re comparing them directly? I’m really struggling trying to decide which one to get I have two other four-wheel-drive vehicles for my business reason I want this is solely for MPG’s and putting less mileage on my three-quarter ton truck for my small lawn care and window cleaning business.
Thank you! I completely recommend the hybrid, then. If this were your only truck, then the 2.0. We do have a comparison video coming out on Sunday morning.
What I would like to see is a test between the hybrid and the 4wd. The hybrid would be without and with chains. I carry chains and they've gotten me through rough spots. I'll have them with on my Maverick hybrid.
I saw this test on another video between a Jeep Wagoneer and a sedan.
Given the sky-high prices that other used trucks are selling for right now, this should sell like crazy. Used Tacomas and Ridgelines are selling for $35-$40k, but you can get this for about $10k less.
Exactly, I keep watching used Tacoma’s and it’s insane how much they are, getting this new for $10k less plus better fuel econ is worth loosing the off road performance imo
@@keyhere I’d be concerned about the lack of ground clearance. This Maverick looks like it has the same GC as a Honda Civic.
@@HawkGTboy I currently have a civic and it’s 4”, this is like 7.5” so at least it’s a decent improvement lol
Ridgeline is 7.6. 0.1 of a inch isn't making any difference
Maverick is actually higher it's 8.6 for the fx4
Impressive.
Yeah, hybrids really shine around town, city driving. They can be a great option depending on your driving needs
That number is crazy. My 2017 Focus ST with the same engine got only slightly better than that, and that was a much lighter vehicle with only 2 wheels driven and a manual transmission. I imagine gearing probably has a lot to do with it but 6th gear wasn’t especially short on the ST. Ford has certainly found efficiency improvements elsewhere.
These days the automatics aren't just faster 0-60 but also more fuel efficient. The 2022 Toyota Corolla Hatchback loses like 2-3mpg if you get it in a manual
I was amused at the comment you made as you were getting onto the highway at the start of your test drive. You said the drive would simulate an actual long journey people would take in their car. Maybe where you live.
Where we live in Texas, it's over 100 miles - one way - to Sam's Club.
Glad to see this, family has always been ford people, currently have a Jeep and it’s a pile of crap, the only likable thing about it is I get 31.5 mpg 99% highway at 65mph. Bet this truck does that or better at that speed and seems like a more reliable truck
This looks compelling.
It is. We love it.
I'm torn between a hybrid for utility and MPG vs the pep/tow/terrain of the turbo. Ford impressed me with this car. I test drove the turbo and really loved it
Mathew, it is a tough decision so I bought one of each that I show on my channel with a lot of videos. The gas savings overall will probably pay for the extra ins cost.
What kind of mpg would the gas engine get without AWD?
30 mpg at 72 mph at 40 F. Should return a bit better efficiency in warmer temperatures at 70 mph.
Hot air is less dense than cold air which means there's a less concentration of oxygen to combine with the fuel hot air means less fuel efficiency. That is mythology that hot air improves power and efficiency it's not true at all. A turbocharger or a supercharger is an air compressor that compresses air which means more oxygen per unit volume of air which means more oxygen to burn the fuel while it's in the combustion chamber. hot intake air works against a turbocharger cold air assist a turbocharger. Airplanes have a method to add heat to the carburetor intake to keep them from icing up whenever you add heat to an airplane carburetor the power and the RPMs of the motor go down you lose power with hot air going in the intake.
30 mpg average vs 33 mpg average for the hybrid, with much more power to boot! I'm ordering the eco boost Maverick!
Hey just got my Maverick eco boost, first week usage not broken in yet with lots of idling and remote starts with more idling and temperatures in to 20s, no highway driving just local stop and go, so far getting 25 mpg, very happy with this truck!
Respectable mpg. Awd is front default with rear kicking in when need be. I think it's easier to get higher numbers than if they had done it the other way round. Nice truck
Worse due to parasitic loss.
Fwd layouts actually are way more efficient, even when the engines aren't sideways. Subarus have been doing it forever. The manuals are 50/50 split and get WORSE mileage. The autos have a center clutch kindof where the front output shaft is for the drive shaft. They usually run mainly fwd too and get 28mpg AVERAGE all day long that's with CITY/HWY mix.
The manuals w 50/50 get about 24 lmao. I miss that fwd bias every time I hit the gas pump.
@@ShogunAutoworks Cool. These are also FWD. AWD only kicks in under computer control, otherwise not coupled.
I drive a Subaru from time to time. 2014 Impreza. Nice car, also great mileage.
@@KF1 be glad it's that way trust me lol.
I’ve managed 33mpg on an entire tank of gas down in FL on an FX4, had to keep the A/C off most the time though. Got exactly 500 miles out of the tank before I chickened out and refilled
got told by a ford dealership that ford stopped making the hybrid version back in march due to the chip shortage. they told me they might resume building again in either june or july
This is impressive for this 2.0 FX4 4K Maverick. But the hybrid in eco mode got 33 mpg which is kinda disappointing. Were you in eco mode or normal or other? Great comparison.
Hybrids get better mpg in the city, on highway speeds the electric motor actually causes resistance
Crazy that the HIghway numbers for the Ecoboost (30mpg) and Hybrid (33mpg) is comparable. I wanted a hybrid but was told the only thing that could be ordered at the moment is the Ecoboost. I have the AWD ecoboost on order currently and after watching these videos i believe the ecoboost may be a better value and great for my commute to work, itll also be AWD. Itll replace my 2001 tacoma doublecab V6 that has been an awesome truck but it averages 16mpg at best. The Maverick seems to be a great option im just hoping to get alot of life out of the truck! ive heard both positive and negative about the ecoboosts hopefully i can get 200k miles out of this like i have my tacoma!
I worked at Ford, belive me, I've seen HUNDREDS of ecoboosts reaching and exceeding 250k
The 2.3 ecoboost is literal plug in play upgrade when your 2.0 does finally go. My only concern on these trucks is RUST!
I think both of these trucks fit the bill for needs of people that don't need a full size truck.
Wow that's 5MPG better then my Ecoboost mustang premuim! Maybe it's because it uses a smaller displament? But yeah trading .3 liter for .0liter and 5MPG may be a good choice.
Excellent. A fwd mav should get 32mpg in that case.
I can promise you I have 26,000 on my hybrid xl and drive 80 miles a day commute at 80-85 90% highway.
And I’ve never seen less than 38mpg(that way me staying in the throttle a lot)
Usually stays between 40-43.
But if I can cruise off the highway around 50mph I can average 48-50mpg.
This thing is awesome
just to clarify typically driving at 80-85mph on the highway? Have you ever checked highway mpg at 75mph avg speed?
i'm seriously trying to get my hands on this in Europe, too bad Ford won't sell these trough the dealers because '' they don't think they'll sell''
Granted, we have ridiculously High Emissions, But a 2 litre Ecoboost with Similar performance in a Truck, that's comparable , if not , better then our European Ford Ranger Raptor with a DIESEL is really interesting.
It’s also a big plus that it runs on 87 octane unlike a lot of turbo engines.
Wait…the eco run on premium. Not 87. The hybrid runs on 87…
@@4TheLoveOfGadgets No, they can run on 87 octane per the owners manual. There is plenty of information out there on this…
wow usually ecoboosts can't get up to their rated mpg. I've owned 2 and neither of them got their rated highway mpg no natter how I drove it. both were rated 34 highway and the best I ever got on the highway was 28. impressive to see one actually get what its rated at
Do the same test with all city driving.
I want that yellow one
Thanks for posting not post one about how can I possibly get one
What re the weight of the truck? Fuel, driver total weight matters with mpg.
Wow that is cool. WTG Ford
Hi! In the 2.0. ecoboost,, does the Eco mode (if you have it) make the gears shift earlier, at lower rpm's? Thanks!
In some situations, yes
Haha you passed by my town :)
Had for one week with hybrid XL… 42MPG so far
It will do really well until the valves get covered in carbon. I have a maverick on order but I'll be putting a catch can on it for sure. My focus went from 6.9l/100km city and 5.6l/100 km highway to 7.5 and 6.8 respectively. I need to clean my valve and it should do a bit better. I think because the mavericks a turbo it will either need a catch can or the valves cleaned regularly.
What's a catch can and is it easy to install yourself ?
And I bet the FWD 2.0 non-hybrid maverick gets even better MPG
Is there a calculation for the hybrid model that you were trailing?
czcams.com/video/xQIxqu6vZgE/video.html
Hopefully it still manages about 25 mpg going 75-80. The speed limit on most highways in my state is 75.
Update, it gets about 23mpg going between 75-80 on the highway
Thats still impressive
@@madworldproductions855 why are you getting 23mpg when the video guy gets 30. What's the difference between you and him
The range on your ecoboost test was 495 miles. 30 x 16.5
What Ford color is the blue/grey one?
Cuántos galones gastaste en en 2.0 y cuántas millas recorrida
Who would you recommend this truck for? Does it seem like a reliable vehicle?
Definitely! It’s pretty simple tech: a 2.0-liter turbo that Ford uses in many products, so it’s a known quantity. 8 speed automatic that is also pretty proven. Even the hybrid is pretty straightforward and proven in other models.
I think a lot of people would enjoy the Maverick. It’s affordable, practical, and cool. Can’t ask for much more!
So is the hybrid or the ecoboost the way to go for highway commuting?
Pretty comparable. Hybrid will always be a little better given it's running the Atkinson cycle.
7:26 the check engine light is already on and this car with a bed is still new
Cruising at 55-60 I have gotten as high as 37MPG on my ecoboost. But thats the speed limit in my state, good to know what the MPG is at higher speeds.
EDIT: Mine is the FWD only model, which will have an impact too.
I've seen 35.8 MPG on my avg mpg readout. Even accounting for possible error (Avg mpg usually has a 1-2 mpg error), I'm still getting an easy 32-33 mpg hwy in my XLT AWD ecoboost. That is without using cruise control and cruising at 65-70 mph. I have a hard tri-fold bed cover which probably helps fuel efficiency also.
Hi, did you use regular or premium on this?
Thanks
Regular
Those tires are really lacking . Those Pirelli scorpions are dangerous in rain and snow conditions.
Is this in normal mode? Any idea what the 2.0L ecoboost gets in eco mode vs normal mode? Considering fx4 package but not sure how much MPG id lose not having eco for long trips
I doubt it affects highway mpg as the truck was in 8th gear the entire time anyway. The 4k tow gearing and/or FX4 tires are more likely to affect highway mpg
Eco mode has little/no effect on highway driving. It basically adjusts shift points and maybe some fuel flow restriction on acceleration, neither of which do anything when you are cruising in OD on the highway.
Tyler, I have the Lariat AWD with Lux and FX4, and get anywhere between 29 and 32 mpg depending on my speed.
Think about of repeating test using high test fuel
Can you do a side by side drag race to 70 mph with both trucks? That would be interesting. Also, do you fill up until you see the fuel at the gas filler rim, or stop at the first click? Accuracy would be at the filler rim level.
We meant to, but we ran out of time :/ we did do a roll race from 40 and they were surprisingly close. That'll be in our comparison video coming up. We use the three-click method, which allows bubbles to settle twice.
Too bad they didn’t find a way to marry the AWD eco boost to the hybrid. That would make for a great truck.
Slap a K&N on it, Racechip tuner, street tires and a tonneau and you will be at 32-33 hwy.
Look up some particulate tests on the k&n. They are a great way to end an engine prematurely
@@1986subway Yep, i've seen the tests ands its good to know that they do let in a lot more of the crap but just gotta change the oil in the engine and in the filter at recommended intervals. Used them for 30 years for hundreds of thousands of miles with no problems and im sure lots of others have as well. They dont void warranty either, and there is no evidence they cause premature failure, just that they can make the engine lubricants dirty quicker, so only negligence of regular maintanance will cause failure.
Mpg on city?
I get 12mpg in my 05 hemi ram.
You cant even find a maverick below msrp even used ones that some crazy shit!
495 miles to empty. One would need to drive less or get stuck on the road, but that is at 70 mph. If one drove a little slower, say 65 mph, then over 500 is possible between fill ups.
Hey Charlie. Is that a check engine light on the dash? What is the story behind that?
At what point in the video?
@@DailyMotor when you where calculating mpg and talking about it.
@@DabooUa CEL indicator is on when engine is off and ignition is on to verify CEL light is working (bulb not burnt out). I think this is standard operation for all vehicles and has been like this for decades.
@@jeffhynes6503 Jeff Hynes you are correct sir. I was watching the video on my phone so it was hard to see is engine was running or not.
Dang bro, I feel like you not letting us know what he got in the hybrid for his trip at the same time was a big let down at the end...
Is this hybrid ?
Does the maverick come with cruise control??????
XLT and up I believe
light vehicles with modern small engines fuel efficient ..who knew
What would be hilarious if the maverick would be the "truck" to take the title from the f150 sales leader
I think it has
never ever ever ever happen. You know they say never say never? Well never. NEVER! The Maverick is looking like a wonderful "lifestyle" truck. It is ABSOLUTELY NOT a workhorse. It's basically a car with a pickup bed. It will never be the jobsite, hauling trailers, work vehicle that the blue collar professional needs. It is what it is and its great at that, and has been a missing market segment for a long time. Well done Ford.
@@dlloyd6300 I wasn't implying it would be the workhorse job site trailer hauler I was referring to the the average joe getting one of these you know carolla, foucus ,civic, jetta, sentra type people besides I dont think ford would ever let that happen f150 is their bread and butter
@@willie9397 I gotcha. You aren't talking about the Maverick stealing F-150 sales, but stealing "Civic" sales. Honestly I think it will be a mix of both, but I still don't think that it would even break 10% of F-150 sales. I'm one of the "Civic" sales. My wife has a Hyundai Elantra that she has a 3 hour one way commute to work. She would like something higher off the road, that also needs to have good gas mileage, and is inexpensive. This thing ticks all of those boxes. I just don't think there are enough of "Me" to dethrone the F-150 any time soon.
I get 19 driving only city with awd 2.0T
I would like to see you do 65mph. I bet it would be even better.
It would do even better at 55.

Normal.

How fast did y'all drive?
Wow you watched the video and you don't know how fast they were driving. Please don't get behind a wheel if your that unobservant as I don't want you to kill someone.
They verbally said between 70&72 MPH and they had it visually posted on a cellphone in the video.
@@fredted1611 ya i was skipping a bit while watching. My bad.
I checked the mileage on my 2024 Maverick XL Ecoboost for the first 1,000 miles. Checking it manually, it got 28.2 mpg. The computer was saying 30.3 mpg. It seems the computer is a little too optimistic. I don't think your test included enough miles to be accurate. Also, you need to include both highway and city driving. I really like the Maverick. It rides and handles very good.
If hybrid one can drive only 33 mpg and this can drive 30 mpg what’s a point to buy hybrid😂
1000 dollar savings right off the bat and probably more than 10 mpg difference if one mixes in some stop and go driving.
For me I’m all highway so I agree BUT if you’re a pizza delivery driver or something. The hybrid is perfect.
You should have done a mix instead of highway only, would be more realistic. The hybrid while having the EPA rating for highway couldn't take advantage of what the hybrid engine was made for.
Right...but Ford wins NO "awards" for producing them and delivering them -- on time. Just like they screwed-up on the Broncos. An terrible, poorly-managed company...
