The keyboard warriors said it wasn’t a “real truck” and they were wrong. Meet the 2026 MotorTrend Truck of the Year: the Ford Maverick, a compact pickup that just outperformed bigger, more powerful, and far more expensive competitors. After two weeks of intense testing, including highway drives, city commuting, off-roading, towing, payload hauling, and deep dives into technology and safety, the Maverick proved why it deserves the crown.

We got the numbers, and more! The 1,250-horsepower ZR1X has been through our independent instrumented testing, plus some damp track laps and a drift session. We even dusted the pavement this time. But how quick is it to 60 mph, through the quarter-mile, and around our figure eight course? Is X gon' deliver it to ya? Combining the 5.5-liter twin-turbo V-8 of the rear-drive ZR1 with an enhanced version of the front electric motor from the all-wheel drive E-Ray, the ZR1X promises the ultimate Corvette powertrain, with the Nurburgring lap time to prove it. Watch the video to see the results, because they're not as cut-and-dry as we expected.
