Blue 2025 Ford Maverick driving on the road

The 2025 Ford Maverick packs truck muscle into a compact, fuel-efficient package that fits right into Chester County living. From the wallet-friendly XL to the sporty Lobo, this little truck comes in five models to match what you need and what you can spend. Picking the right trim matters — whether you’re zipping through Phoenixville or loading up for weekend fun, knowing what sets each model apart will help you drive home in your perfect match.

Understanding the 2025 Ford Maverick Trim Options

Ford’s 2025 Maverick comes in five versions: the XL, XLT, Lobo, Lariat, and Tremor. Prices start at $28,145 for the base XL and increase to $40,995 for the Tremor. That’s affordable truck ownership for Phoenixville families.

The Maverick comes with two engine options. The standard 2.5L hybrid delivers 191 hp and 155 lb-ft with a continuously variable transmission. The optional 2.0L EcoBoost produces 250 hp and 275 lb-ft with an eight-speed automatic transmission for those wanting more power.

2025 Ford Maverick XL

The XL is your gateway to Maverick ownership. You’ll get 17-inch steel wheels with Sparkle Silver painted covers, LED headlights, and Ford’s clever FLEXBED storage system with six tie-downs. The XL also includes Ford’s SYNC 4 infotainment system with a 13.2-inch touch screen, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and an 8-inch digital dash.

2025 Ford Maverick® XL

Under the hood of the XL sits the 2.5L hybrid system, with the 2.0L EcoBoost available as an option. This combo delivers an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 42 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. Front-wheel drive (FWD) comes standard, but you can add all-wheel drive (AWD) if you’re worried about those slippery Pennsylvania winter roads.

2025 Ford Maverick XLT

Move up to the XLT, and you hit the sweet spot between cost and comfort. You’ll notice the 17-inch Carbonized Gray aluminum wheels, Navy Pier/Aspen Gray interior, and handy additions such as in-bed storage cubbies and a push-button start. It also includes a 2K trailer hitch receiver and ten tie-downs, as well as LED bed lighting and a 400-watt power outlet in the bed.

2025 Ford Maverick® XLT

Like the XL, this truck comes standard with the hybrid setup in either FWD or AWD. Cold-weather drivers will love the XLT Luxury Package that adds heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and remote start. If you like off-roading, the FX4 Off-Road Package brings all-terrain tires, skid plates, and reinforced shocks.

2025 Ford Maverick Lobo

2025 Ford Maverick® Lobo™

The Lobo brings street-performance attitude to the Maverick family. Starting at $35,930, this truck comes with the 2.0L EcoBoost with advanced four-wheel drive (4WD). The suspension is tuned for fun with better rear-wheel bias and a lowered stance, and Lobo mode adjusts cornering and grip capability. For this trim, Ford added a seven-speed quick-shift transmission with paddle shifters that are similar to those found in Ford’s European sports cars. Other additions include better brakes and steering, and ActiveX seats. The Lobo’s fuel economy hits 21 mpg city, 30 mpg highway, and 24 mpg combined.

2025 Ford Maverick Lariat

The Lariat trim shifts to leather seats, a leather-wrapped wheel, and heated ActiveX seats. Music sounds better through the eight-speaker Bang & Olufsen system, and the eight-way power driver’s seat makes finding that perfect position easy. Dual-zone climate control means no more thermostat wars with your passengers.

2025 Ford Maverick® Lariat®

Some luxuries get added to this trim, including a power-sliding rear window and an 8-inch digital gauge display. The Lariat comes with AWD and 19-inch machined-painted aluminum wheels.

2025 Ford Maverick Tremor

The Tremor transforms your Maverick into a trail-ready machine. It increases to 9.1 inches of ground clearance, and the front bumper has an improved approach angle. This truck comes with the 2.0L turbo EcoBoost engine with advanced 4WD.

2025 Ford Maverick® Tremor®

You’ll recognize a Tremor by its 17-inch all-terrain tires, 17-inch machined-face Tarnished Dark aluminum wheels with orange pockets, and grille with orange accents. The 4K Tow Package isn’t available for this model, limiting the towing capacity to 2,000 pounds.

How Do the 2025 Ford Ranger Trims Compare to the Maverick?

If you’re debating between the 2025 Maverick vs the Ford Ranger, there are some key differences that can help you decide which model suits you best. The Ranger is considered a midsize truck, measuring 210.6 inches, while the Maverick is a compact truck, ranging from 199.8 to 200.9 inches depending on the trim. The Ranger’s bed is also longer at 59.6 inches compared to the Maverick’s 54.4-inch bed. Ground clearance favors the Ranger at 9.3 inches versus the Maverick’s 8.3 inches.

There’s a price gap between the two models, with the Ranger running between $33,350 and $56,070 while the Maverick costs between $28,145 and $40,995. For towing capacity, the Maverick pulls 2,000 pounds (4,000 pounds with the 4K Tow Package) while the Ranger has a max towing capacity of 7,500 pounds. The payload capacity of the Maverick maxes out at 1,500 pounds, while the Ranger can carry up to 1788 pounds.

Which 2025 Maverick Model Is Right for You?

Your perfect Maverick depends on your life, budget, and how you’ll use it. The XL starts at an economical $28,145, gives you the 2.5L hybrid, a 1,500-pound payload capacity, and can tow up to 4,000 pounds with the 4K Tow Package. If you’re looking for more creature comforts, the XLT adds nicer wheels, more tie-downs, and optional luxury accessories.

If you want AWD but don’t want to spend the time at gas stations, the hybrid AWD still delivers 42 mpg for city driving. If you prefer more power, the 2.0L EcoBoost engine gives you more punch while still managing 21 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. For weekend trail adventurers, the Tremor has a lifted suspension and off-road modes. The street-inspired Lobo offers a sporty version.
