The Tremor off-road package improves on the Ford Maverick's fantastic fundamentals.

and to the Bronco Sport Badlands. The XLT Tremor sprinted to 60 mph in a tidy 6.0 seconds, just 0.1 second behind its siblings. The Tremor's 171-foot stop from 70 mph was a foot shorter than the Maverick FX4's.

The biggest gap between the two off-road-themed Mavericks occurred in our 75-mph highway fuel-economy test, where the Tremor's 26 mpg fell well short of the FX4's 29 mpg. The Tremor's EPA highway rating is 24 mpg, and its combined estimate of 21 mpg is by far the worst in the Maverick family. For comparison, other AWD versions achieve 24 mpg combined, while the front-drive-only hybrid boasts a 37-mpg combined estimate.

Despite its compromised fuel economy and noisy engine, the Maverick is comfortable cruising at highway speeds. It doesn't bounce or fidget, thanks mostly to its direct steering and impressive stability. While it rides on the same C2 platform as the Bronco Sport, the Maverick is 28 inches longer overall and has an extra 16 inches between its axles; it's also a couple of inches lower than the baby Bronco.
