Small Updates, Same Exceptional Value—Now at Benton Ford

The 2026 Ford Maverick shows that you don’t have to change what already works. After a stylish update in 2025, this compact pickup returns with a few thoughtful upgrades, new color choices, and pricing that continues to make it one of Ford’s best values. At Benton Ford in Benton, KY, we’re excited to offer this versatile truck as part of the expanding 2026 Ford lineup, alongside favorites like the 2025 F-150 and the Black Widow Edition.

Refined Touches, Same Maverick Character

Two New Colors and More Ways to Customize

The 2026 Maverick keeps its 2025 design but now features two new paint options: Orange Fury Metallic (borrowed from the Mustang) and Marsh Gray (from the Bronco lineup). These colors let you express your style without increasing the price.

Ford has also improved the equipment packages and made drivetrains more flexible. The front-wheel-drive 2.0L EcoBoost engine is back for XL and XLT models, offering a $1,000 lower starting price compared to the hybrid FWD version.

Efficient Powertrains and Smart Choices
