Every 2026 Ford Maverick comes equipped with Ford Co-Pilot360, a comprehensive collection of driver-assist features. Standard technologies include Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, which can alert you to potential collisions with vehicles or pedestrians in your path. If you don't respond in time, the system can automatically apply the brakes. The Lane-Keeping System helps you avoid unintentional drifting with Lane-Keeping Assist, Lane-Keeping Alert, and Driver Alert.

The Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Cross-Traffic Alert and Trailer Coverage is optional on the XL and XLT trims and standard on Lariat and above. This feature warns you if a vehicle is lurking in your blind spot when changing lanes or backing up. Speaking of reversing, a Rear View Camera comes standard, while Front and Rear Parking Sensors are included on higher trims for added confidence when maneuvering in tight spots.

A 360-degree Aerial View Camera is available on the range-topping Tremor model. This system uses multiple cameras to stitch together a bird's eye view of the Maverick's surroundings, making navigating in crowded urban environments or on the trail easier. The camera feed is displayed on the 13.2-inch SYNC 4 touchscreen, which comes standard across the lineup.

Other notable safety features available on the 2026 Ford Maverick include Evasion Assist, which provides steering support to help you avoid a slow or stopped vehicle if a collision is imminent, and Reverse Brake Assist, which can detect pedestrians or obstacles behind the vehicle and automatically apply the brakes while backing up.
