TopSpeed’s Pickup of the Year Is the 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid

The 2025 Maverick Hybrid is named TopSpeed’s Pickup of the Year in the title, but the outlet’s award reasoning could not be verified. Ford’s U.S. specifications cover trims, fuel economy, towing, bed size and technology.

The 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid is identified as TopSpeed’s Pickup of the Year in the title of this article. TopSpeed’s award article and its explanation for the selection could not be verified, so the reasoning behind the award should not be inferred from Ford’s product claims. What can be checked is the truck’s U.S. configuration: Ford lists a 2.5L hybrid powertrain as standard on XL, XLT and Lariat, with different published fuel-economy estimates for front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.

What is confirmed about the TopSpeed award?

The award claim is the one stated in the supplied title: TopSpeed names the 2025 Ford Maverick Hybrid its Pickup of the Year. The TopSpeed article, judging process and rationale were not verified here. That means the award can be reported as the title’s claim, but no specific reason—such as fuel economy, towing ability or value—can be attributed to TopSpeed.

Which 2025 Maverick trims have the hybrid powertrain?

For the U.S. 2025 model, Ford lists the 2.5L hybrid as standard on XL, XLT and Lariat. Ford describes the Maverick as a compact pickup with a unibody SuperCrew body. The hybrid uses a power-split electric continuously variable transmission, according to Ford’s order guide.

  • Brand new box. Real rubber tires. Detailed interior, exterior. Officially licensed product. Has opening hood and doors. Made of diecast with some plastic parts. Manufacturer's original unopened packaging. Dimensions approximately L-7.5, W-3, H-2.25 inches.

Ford describes it this way on its 2025 Maverick product page: “The 2025 Ford Maverick® pickup offers a standard 2.5L full-hybrid powertrain.” This is Ford’s statement, not a quotation from TopSpeed.

Ford’s estimated fuel economy, by hybrid configuration

Ford Division’s 2025 Maverick Order Guide, dated April 28, 2025, lists these adjusted estimates for the two hybrid configurations:

2.5L Hybrid FWD 42 mpg 35 mpg 38 mpg $1,400
2.5L Hybrid AWD 40 mpg 34 mpg 37 mpg $1,400

These are manufacturer estimates in the order guide, not independent road-test results. Check the exact drivetrain and trim of a specific truck before applying a figure to it.

Towing and bed dimensions

Ford’s 2025 U.S. Maverick product page lists 2,000 lb of base towing and up to 4,000 lb of maximum available towing. The 4,000 lb figure is a configuration-dependent maximum, not a towing rating for every Hybrid; confirm the rating for the particular vehicle and equipment.

Rank #3
1974 Maverick Grabber Orange with Black Stripes Forgotten Classics Series 1/24 Diecast Model Car by Motormax 73332
  • Brand new box. Real rubber tires. True-to-scale detail. Detailed interior, exterior. Officially licensed product. Has opening hood and doors. Made of diecast with some plastic parts. Manufacturer's original unopened packaging. Dimensions approximately L-7.5, W-3, H-2.25 inches.

Ford lists the bed at 54.4 inches long at the floor, 53.3 inches wide between the sidewalls and 42.6 inches wide at the wheelhouses. These are manufacturer dimensions; the narrower wheelhouse measurement is the relevant width where the wheel housings intrude.

Cabin technology

Ford lists a 13.2-inch center display with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility for the 2025 Maverick. These are product-page specifications, not findings from an independent evaluation or stated reasons for TopSpeed’s award.
