Ford Maverick vs GMC Hummer EV: Specs Compared

Running cost over five years: at the EPA's 15,000-mile-a-year assumption the GMC Hummer EV burns about $1,400 of fuel annually against $1,600 for the Ford Maverick. That $200 yearly gap compounds to roughly $1,000 over five years and $1,600 over eight — often more than the price difference between two trims of the same vehicle, and the single largest running-cost line item separating these two.

City and highway economy: the GMC Hummer EV leads in both cycles — 59 mpg city and 48 mpg highway against 42 and 35 mpg — so its fuel-efficiency advantage holds whether you commute in traffic or cover long highway miles.

Powertrain choice: the Ford Maverick is recorded with 3 distinct engine configurations (Hybrid, SIDI & PFI, SIDI), the GMC Hummer EV with no. Across 23 recorded Ford Maverick configurations and 16 for the GMC Hummer EV, the wider the engine spread the more the real-world fuel efficiency depends on which version you actually buy, so check the specific model year and drivetrain rather than the headline number.

Drivetrain and class: the Ford Maverick is offered with Front-Wheel Drive, Part-time 4-Wheel Drive, 4-Wheel Drive, the GMC Hummer EV with All-Wheel Drive. All-wheel drive typically costs one to two mpg combined against the same vehicle in front- or rear-wheel drive, which is worth remembering when the gap between these two is small. The EPA classes them as Small Pickup Trucks 4WD and Standard Pickup Trucks 4WD respectively — the class drives the interior volume, cargo space and passenger space each one is measured against.
