Does the Ford Maverick have a power outlet?

The Maverick includes at least one 12-volt power outlet in the cabin, and some configurations offer a second 12-volt outlet in the cargo bed. There is no standard built-in 120-volt household outlet on typical Maverick models, though aftermarket options can provide AC power if needed.

Where to find the outlets

Here is a quick guide to the power outlets you can expect in the Maverick, depending on trim and options.

• A 12-volt auxiliary power outlet in the front cabin, usually located near the center console for charging devices and powering small accessories.


• A second 12-volt outlet in the cargo bed is available on certain trims or with specific bed/usage packages, expanding power options for tools and accessories.


• There is no factory-installed 120-volt household outlet on standard Maverick configurations. To run appliances that require AC power, owners typically rely on aftermarket inverters or dealer-installed solutions.

In summary, the Maverick provides a practical 12-volt power supply in the cabin and, depending on options, an additional bed-side outlet, while full-size AC power is not included out of the box.

Power outlets by trim and option

Power outlet availability can vary with trim level and factory options. What follows reflects common configurations across recent Maverick models, but buyers should verify specific details with a dealer or the official brochure for the exact vehicle:

• Cabin 12-volt outlet: Standard on most trims; used for charging and powering small devices inside the cabin.


• Bed 12-volt outlet: Optional on some trims or via certain bed/utility packages; useful for portable tools and outdoor use in the cargo area.


• 120-volt AC outlet: Not included as a factory-installed feature on typical Maverick models; aftermarket inverter kits are the primary way to obtain AC power.

For owners who rely on portable electronics, camping gear, or work-site tools, the Maverick’s 12-volt outlets cover most lower-power needs, while AC power requires an added solution.

What to consider when buying

When evaluating a Maverick for power needs, consider how you plan to use the truck. If you anticipate frequent need for charging devices in the cabin and occasional 12-volt use in the bed, a base or mid-level trim with the bed outlet option may suit you. If you require regular household AC power, plan for an aftermarket inverter or check with Ford about any current accessory offerings. Always confirm the exact outlet availability on the specific build you’re considering.

Summary

The Ford Maverick provides at least one 12-volt power outlet in the cabin and may offer a second 12-volt outlet in the cargo bed on certain configurations. A built-in 120-volt household outlet is not standard, but buyers can add AC power through aftermarket solutions. For precise outlet availability, check the exact trim and package details with a dealership or the official Ford specifications for the model year in question.

What can I plug into my truck outlet?

You can plug a wide variety of low-power and some high-power electronics into your truck's outlet, depending on the outlet's type and wattage rating. Common items include phone and laptop chargers, portable vacuums, air compressors, and cooling fans. Trucks with higher-wattage outlets, like the Ford F-150, can even power tools, small blenders, or a TV for tailgating, but you should always check the wattage and avoid high-power devices like electric saws or hair dryers unless your outlet is specifically rated for them.
 
Low-power electronics (12V and standard 110V outlets) 

• Personal electronics: Chargers for smartphones, tablets, and laptops.
• Portable appliances: Small vacuums, air pumps, fans, portable coolers, and electric tire inflators.
• Navigation and safety: GPS devices and dashcams.
• Other accessories: Camera battery chargers. 

High-power electronics (for trucks with 110V or higher-wattage outlets) 

• Power tools: Rechargeable tool batteries, and sometimes even direct power for small hand drills or sanders (check wattage). 
• Tailgating/camping: Small blenders, televisions, coffee grinders, or lights. 
• Other devices: Portable air compressors, or a coffee maker (if the wattage is sufficient). 

What to avoid

• High-wattage appliances: Devices like hair dryers, space heaters, coffee makers, and electric kettles often draw more power than a standard truck outlet can provide. 
• High-power tools: Electric saws, vacuum cleaners, and anything with a large motor load. 
• Precise equipment: Devices that require a stable and precise power supply, such as medical equipment, cathode-ray tube TVs, or certain measuring equipment. 
• Incompatible plugs: Always ensure the plug physically fits the outlet. An object could be preventing proper contact. 

Tips for safe use

• Check the wattage: Before plugging in, check your vehicle's manual or the outlet's label to find the maximum wattage. Compare this to the wattage required by your device. 
• Don't overload: Never plug in too many high-power devices at once. 
• Understand limitations: Some power outlets are only designed for short-term use or specific tasks, like charging batteries rather than running a tool directly. 

Is there a plug-in Ford Maverick?

Are There Plug-In or All-Electric Versions? As of 2025, Ford has not announced a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) or fully electric version of the Maverick. While the company is expanding its electric vehicle (EV) lineup, which we see in the F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E, the Maverick remains a traditional hybrid for now.

Where is the power outlet in a Ford?

Your vehicle may have multiple auxiliary power points which can be located in the front of the center console, under the armrest, the rear of the center console, and/or the rear cargo area. For information specific to your vehicle, refer to your Owner's Manual.

Does the Ford Maverick have a 120V outlet?

Stay powered up with two standard pre-wired 12V electrical leads and two 110V outlets - one in the cab and one in the bed.
