Do Ford Mavericks need to be plugged in?

Ford Mavericks do not need to be plugged in. They are hybrid vehicles, which means they have both an electric motor and a gas-powered engine. Unlike fully electric vehicles, hybrids do not need to be charged by plugging them into an outlet or a charging station. The hybrid battery in a Ford Maverick is charged through regenerative braking and while the engine is running. So, you can simply fill up the gas tank like a traditional vehicle and drive the Maverick without the need for external charging.
It’s worth noting that there are future plans for electric and plug-in hybrid versions of the Ford Maverick, but these variants are expected to be released in the next generation of the truck, which is scheduled for the second half of the decade. However, the current Ford Mavericks available on the market are hybrid vehicles that do not require external charging.
