As electric pickups from Ford, GM, Tesla, and Rivian become increasingly common, it might seem like hybrid pickups have been overlooked. However, hybrid trucks are just beginning to gain widespread attention, and the few models available today are expected to more than double in the next couple of years. Whether you need a new truck for work or recreation, there’s a good chance a hybrid pickup will meet your needs. Here are the best hybrid pickups to look out for in 2025. Pricing is for the most affordable hybrid trim level, including destination charges.
Current Hybrid Pickup Trucks
2025 Ford Maverick
The 2025 Ford Maverick hybrid holds the title of the most fuel-efficient non-EV pickup truck in America. The new model year introduces the availability of the hybrid drivetrain with the all-wheel-drive (AWD) system as an option. With the 4K Tow Package, the Maverick hybrid gains a boost to its maximum towing capacity up to 4,000 pounds. The Maverick uses a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine combined with a hybrid system for a total of 191 horsepower. However, the hybrid drivetrain isn’t available with the Lobo or Tremor grades.
2025 Toyota Tacoma i-Force Max
The 2025 Toyota Tacoma i-Force Max is the all-new hybrid version of the Tacoma, featuring a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine and an electric motor that produce a combined output of 326 hp and 465 lb-ft of torque. The i-Force Max hybrid is available in TRD Sport, TRD Off-Road, and Limited trims and comes standard in the TRD Pro and Trailhunter. (Note: The Trailhunter has slightly less total horsepower at 323, but does have the option for a 6-foot bed.) This hybrid drivetrain allows for towing up to 6,000 pounds and a payload capacity of 1,705 pounds.
2025 Ford F-150 Hybrid
The 2025 Ford F-150 is available as a hybrid in the SuperCrew XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum trims. The 3.5-liter PowerBoost Full Hybrid V6 powertrain incorporates a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine and an electric motor, resulting in a total output of 430 hp and 570 lb-ft of torque. This provides more power and torque than even the V8 engine option. To top it off, 4-wheel drive (4WD) is standard, which benefits those who require rugged terrain capability. The F-150 hybrid is currently the most efficient full-size hybrid truck available.
2025 Ram 1500 eTorque Hybrid
The 2025 Ram 1500 lineup has been significantly updated from the previous year, with new inline 6-cylinder engines being the highlight in the non-hybrid models. The eTorque mild hybrid Ram 1500 is only available combined with the V6 engine, providing a combined output of 305 horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque. A new Ram Ramcharger plug-in hybrid version (details below) is also available.
2025 Toyota Tundra i-Force Max
Even more powerful than the F-150 hybrid, the 2025 Toyota Tundra i-Force Max is the most powerful hybrid pickup truck available, generating 437 hp and 583 lb-ft of torque from its 3.4-liter twin-turbocharged V6 hybrid drivetrain. Although the Ford F-150 hybrid offers slightly less power than the Tundra i-Force Max, it can tow more weight. The Tundra i-Force Max is available with 4-wheel drive and can be ordered in the Limited, Platinum, 1794, Capstone, and TRD Pro trim levels.
Future Hybrid Pickup Trucks
2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger
2027 Scout Terra
Jeep Gladiator 4xe Hybrid
Jeep executives have already confirmed the brand’s plan to electrify its entire lineup, including the Gladiator. As the Jeep Wrangler is already available as a PHEV in 4xe form, incorporating the same powertrain in the closely related Gladiator pickup is a natural move. The 4xe hybrid drivetrain in the Wrangler is rated at 375 hp and 470 lb-ft of torque, as well as offers 22 miles of all-electric range. The Wrangler 4xe gets 20 mpg in hybrid mode, or 49 MPGe when driven on battery power. The Gladiator 4xe should not stray far from those marks.
Hyundai Santa Cruz Hybrid
Honda Ridgeline Hybrid
Ford Ranger PHEV
Unlike most of the vehicles listed in the “future” section of hybrid pickup trucks, the Ford Ranger PHEV will soon be available in some areas of the world, just not in the United States. The Ranger PHEV is a strong contender, and might come to the U.S. at some point, but there is talk of demand and cost concerns that might prevent market launch in the U.S. Even if there are enough buyers, the truck might cost more than it’s worth in the American market. If the Ranger plug-in hybrid does arrive in the U.S., expect our testing methods to reduce the claimed all-electric range by a few miles. The Ranger is anticipated to be able to tow approximately 7,700 pounds, using an electric motor and a turbocharged 2.3-liter 4-cylinder.
Ram Rampage
This is another model available outside the U.S. that may come here eventually. With a compact footprint and a unibody construction similar to the Hyundai Santa Cruz, the Ram Rampage is already available for sale in Brazil. As of now, the Rampage is not a hybrid. However, considering parent company Stellantis’ use of a PHEV powertrain in vehicles such as the Dodge Hornet and Alfa Romeo Tonale, it is possible that the same system could make its way into the Rampage if the U.S. market allows it. If that happens, the truck might have an all-electric range of about 33 miles and have 29 mpg combined in hybrid mode and 77 MPGe in electric mode, just like the current Hornet.
