Ford Maverick Hybrid Wins 2024 Best CPO Value Award

Still in high demand and short supply roughly two years after it launched, the Ford Maverick has also accumulated quite a few awards along the way, including a five-year-cost to own award from Kelley Blue Book and landing on Consumer Reports‘ list of the top vehicles one can buy for less than $35k. Now, the Ford Maverick Hybrid continues to add to that trophy case after securing a Vincentric 2024 Best CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) Value in America Award, joining the the Ford Expedition, which topped the Large SUV category, the Lincoln Navigator, which ranked first in the Large Luxury SUV segment, the Ford Transit Connect and its wins in the Small Passenger Cargo Van and Small Commercial Cargo Van categories, the Ford E-Transit, which topped the Large Cargo Van segment, the entire Ford van lineup, which won its own separate award, and the Ford F-150 Lightning, which won the full-size half-ton pickup segment.

The Ford Maverick Hybrid topped the small/mid-size pickup segment by outperforming seven competitors in a number of categories. That includes providing owners with the lowest ownership costs in its class – 10.9 percent below expected levels – as well as having the best fuel economy and lowest operating costs, to boot.

To determine the 2024 Best CPO Value in America Award winners, Vincentric conducted a statistical analysis to discover which vehicles had lower than expected ownership costs given their market segment and price. The company analyzed over 18,000 vehicle configurations using eight cost factors to do this – depreciation, fees and taxes, financing, fuel, insurance, maintenance, opportunity cost, and repairs. These costs were measured while taking into account the CPO warranty offered by each manufacturer while also applying mileage requirements necessary to be authorized as an OEM CPO vehicle. Each CPO vehicle was evaluated in all 50 states plus Washington DC, with the assumption that each would be driven 15,000 miles annually over five years.

“CPO vehicles can be a smart way for car shoppers to save on costs, but there can also be an overwhelming number of options to choose from,” said David Wurster, Vincentric President. “The Vincentric Best CPO Value in America Awards can help consumers make an informed vehicle purchase decision. And with most of this year’s winners being repeat winners in their segments, consumers can have confidence that buying an award-winning CPO vehicle will likely deliver consistent value over time.”
