I've heard rumors that an EV version was coming, too. That's what I really want but it might be hard to wait.

It would take 5 minutes for Ford to make a PHEV Maverick given it shares a drivetrain with the Escape PHEV.
Originally Ford was to make a PHEV Maverick sometime in the next couple years, instead they have Pivoted to this

They also stopped talk of the PHEV focusing on EV releases.
I am hoping the Maverick gets offered as a PHEV and would have one on order if it were PHEV.
However BEV in this area at the likely price is questionable for me at least.
Ford moves GLACIALLY on alternative powertrains and given their bad luck with 2 of their recent plug ins that trend will likely continue
Heck the Maverick hybrid already has 2 recall level issues one with dead batteries and the other with a fire hazard.
