Drive 800 Kilometres Between Fill-Ups in the 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid

The constant interruption of fuel stops affects your schedule and your budget. The 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid eliminates this frustration with its exceptional range of over 800 kilometres on a single tank. This isn't just a number on a specification sheet—it's fewer pit stops during road trips, less time spent at gas stations, and more money saved throughout your ownership experience.

The Maverick continues to elevate what a pickup truck can deliver, particularly for drivers who need versatility without sacrificing efficiency. With the standard hybrid powertrain, you gain the utility of a truck with fuel economy that rivals many compact cars on the market today.

Efficiency That Translates to Real-World Savings

The 2025 Maverick Hybrid achieves a targeted EPA-estimated 5.6 L/100 kilometres in city driving with the standard front-wheel drive configuration. Even the newly available all-wheel drive hybrid model maintains impressive efficiency at 5.9 L/100 kilometres in urban environments.

These numbers matter because they directly impact your wallet. A typical compact SUV might require refueling every 500-600 kilometres, while many conventional pickups need a fill-up after just 400-500 kilometres of mixed driving. The Maverick stretches your fuel budget further while eliminating the inconvenience of frequent stops.

For context, driving from Kentville to Halifax and back twice can be done on a single tank in the Maverick Hybrid. You can make the trip from the Annapolis Valley to Cape Breton or even drive to Prince Edward Island without stopping for fuel. This means exploring the Maritimes without constantly watching the fuel gauge drop into the red zone.

How Ford Engineers Maximized the Maverick's Range

The Maverick achieves its remarkable efficiency through a sophisticated hybrid powertrain that seamlessly transitions between electric and gasoline power. In stop-and-go city traffic, the system relies more heavily on electric propulsion, which explains why the Maverick achieves its best efficiency in urban environments—exactly the opposite of conventional trucks.

The system's regenerative braking captures energy normally lost during deceleration, converting it back to electricity to recharge the battery. This creates a continuous cycle of energy recovery that maximizes every drop of fuel.

For 2025, the addition of all-wheel drive to the hybrid powertrain gives you added capability without dramatically sacrificing efficiency. The slight decrease in fuel economy (from 5.6 to 5.9 L/100 kilometres) represents a minimal trade-off for the significant traction benefits across varying Canadian road conditions.

Benefits Beyond the Fuel Pump

The extended range of the Maverick Hybrid delivers advantages that extend beyond fuel savings. Consider the practical implications:

1. Reduced time spent at gas stations—saving approximately 20-25 stops annually compared to conventional trucks (based on 20,000 kilometres of annual driving)
2. Lower carbon emissions—approximately 2-3 tonnes less CO2 per year compared to a full-size truck
3. Extended service intervals—hybrid components typically require less frequent maintenance than traditional powertrains
4. Increased resale value—fuel-efficient vehicles generally maintain stronger residual values in the Canadian market

For a typical driver covering 20,000 kilometres annually, we can calculate concrete fuel savings. Comparing the Maverick Hybrid's 5.6 L/100km to a full-size truck averaging 14 L/100km in the city:

• Maverick annual fuel use: 1,120 litres
• Full-size truck annual fuel use: 2,800 litres
• Difference: 1,680 litres

At current fuel prices of approximately $1.65/litre in Nova Scotia, that's a potential annual savings of around $2,772. Over five years of ownership, you save nearly $13,860 in fuel costs alone.

The Maverick's efficiency doesn't require you to sacrifice capability. You still get 1,500 pounds of payload capacity—enough for virtually any weekend project—and with the available 4K Tow Package on the all-wheel drive hybrid model, you can tow small campers, watercraft, or utility trailers without resorting to a thirstier vehicle.

The 2025 Maverick proves that exceptional range and truck versatility can coexist. Its 800+ kilometre range eliminates range anxiety from your driving experience, letting you focus on the journey rather than the next fuel stop. With rising fuel costs across Canada, the Maverick's efficiency translates to meaningful savings that accumulate with every kilometre driven.

Imagine cruising across Nova Scotia's coastlines and through the Valley's scenic routes with fewer interruptions for fuel.
