The 2026 Ford Maverick is built for drivers who want real truck capability without the size or price of a traditional pickup. Available at River City Ford in Winnipeg, MB, the Maverick continues to stand out as a compact truck that fits easily into daily life while still being ready for weekend projects, road trips, and light-duty work. With its versatile design, smart technology, and impressive efficiency, the Maverick proves that small trucks can still deliver big value.
Compact Size, Serious Capability
Despite its compact footprint, the 2026 Ford Maverick is engineered to handle demanding tasks. When properly equipped, it offers a maximum available towing capacity of up to 1,814 kgs (4,000 lbs), making it a practical choice for hauling small trailers, boats, or recreational equipment. The Maverick also provides a maximum available payload capacity of up to 1,500 lbs, which is ideal for carrying tools, home improvement supplies, or outdoor gear. This balance of capability and maneuverability makes the Maverick especially appealing for urban drivers who still want truck functionality.
Powertrain Options That Fit Your Lifestyle
The Maverick comes standard with a 2.5-litre hybrid engine paired with a power-split electric CVT transmission and front-wheel drive. This setup is designed to deliver smooth performance and excellent efficiency for everyday commuting and city driving. Drivers who want added confidence in winter conditions can opt for the available all-wheel drive version of the hybrid powertrain.
For those who need more power, the available 2.0-litre EcoBoost gas engine with all-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission offers strong performance when towing or carrying heavier loads. Fuel tank capacity varies depending on the engine, with the hybrid using a 52-litre fuel tank and the gas-powered version offering a 62-litre fuel tank. Both options give buyers flexibility to choose the Maverick that best suits their driving needs.
Confident Handling and Everyday Control
Behind the wheel, the 2026 Ford Maverick feels stable and easy to drive thanks to its unibody construction and standard electronic power-assist steering. Features such as four-wheel disc brakes with ABS, variable-assist power steering, and an electric parking brake help deliver confident handling in a wide range of driving conditions. Hybrid models also benefit from electronic brake boost, which contributes to smooth and predictable braking.
Interior Comfort With Smart Storage
Inside the cabin, the Maverick offers seating for up to five passengers with durable cloth upholstery in a Black Onyx and Medium Dark Slate interior. The front seats are bucket-style, while the rear bench features a folding seatback with flip-up cushions to create additional storage space when needed. Rear under-seat storage bins add another layer of practicality for keeping smaller items organized and out of sight.
Standard interior features include manual single-zone air conditioning, cruise control, power windows and door locks, remote keyless entry, and a cabin particulate air filter. The steering wheel offers tilt and telescoping adjustment and includes audio controls for added convenience.
Technology and Safety You Can Rely On
Every 2026 Ford Maverick comes equipped with SYNC 4 technology featuring enhanced voice recognition, an 8-inch cluster display, Bluetooth connectivity, and a six-speaker audio system. The Ford App allows drivers to stay connected to their vehicle through compatible mobile devices, adding everyday convenience.
Safety is also a strong focus, with standard Ford Co-Pilot360 technology that includes features such as pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking, lane-keeping system, rear view camera, auto LED high-beam headlamps, and post-collision braking. These systems work together to support driver awareness and confidence on the road.
