The 2022 Ford Maverick Lariat: before you buy

No 2022 Ford Maverick Lariat is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Before buying the 2022 Ford Maverick Lariat, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the Maverick

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA has 617 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, power train and engine. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA lists 29 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed.

The figures, translated

The powertrain here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Plan on about 27 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 9.1 L/100 km. Driving 300 km costs roughly $42.33 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles.

Who rents the Maverick

It suits moving day, renovation runs and anything that needs an open bed. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

Space, size and seats

Being a pickup truck, it trades parking ease for a cargo bed.

Rent it for a week first

A test week in the Maverick tells you more than any review. Rent the Maverick for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Maverick answers the big questions.

Which one to look for

Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Compare the Lariat with the other trims of the same year before you decide. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

The cost of driving it

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $141.10 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,600 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
