The 2022 Ford Maverick Hybrid is the perfect truck to own in a big city. The Maverick is compact enough to survive cramped city life and boasts amazing fuel efficiency. Here’s why it’s the solution to high gas prices.

The 2022 Ford Maverick is one of the most fuel-efficient vehicles money can buy

The 2022 Ford Maverick is one of the most fuel-efficient vehicles in the entire automotive industry because of its innovative standard hybrid powertrain. The Maverick Hybrid gets a massive 42 miles per gallon in the city and 37 miles per gallon on the highway. It gets a little over 39 miles per gallon combined.

The compact Ford truck can reach over 500 miles of total range on just a single tank of fuel. Gas prices may be going up, but even if it takes over $40 to fill the Maverick’s tank in some states, that tank of gas will last a long time. A full tank should last the average driver at least 16 days before needing to refuel.

The Ford Maverick is a new type of pickup truck: a fuel sipper. The days of the massive gas-guzzling pickup are coming to an end.

The 2022 Ford Maverick isn’t just convenient because of the low costs of ownership. It’s also convenient because of its unique design. The Ford Maverick is tiny, even in comparison to the small Ford Ranger pickup. It’s perfect to fit into tight city parking spaces.

The Ford Maverick is the perfect city truck because of its unique truck bed, the Flexbed. The Flexbed was specifically designed for DIYers that like to customize their truck beds. It uses threaded holes and slots to allow Maverick owners to set up their truck beds to suit their wants and needs.

The Maverick’s Flexbed can be customized with tie-downs and wood to make a DIY bike rack, move furniture or hold lumber. The Flexbed’s possibilities are endless.

According to Car and Driver, the 2022 Ford Maverick starts at just $21,490. Its highest trim level, the Maverick Lariat, starts at just $26,985. The Maverick Lariat includes ActiveX premium vinyl seats as well as tech upgrades. It also comes standard with a 12-volt outlet for tools and appliances.

Even the Ford Maverick Lariat is affordable compared to the average new vehicle today. The Ford Maverick is the solution to high gas prices in big cities because it’s affordable, it will save you money on gas, and it offers more utility than a car or SUV despite being so small.
