Electric mode glitch?

[TBD]

I have a 24’ lariat hybrid with 6k miles (I drive a LOT for my job) and I leave the instrument screen on ev coach almost exclusively. I’ve noticed maybe 4 or 5 times when I take off from a stop the blue electric mode box grows to almost the far right side of the screen. Every other time the biggest the box gets is reaching between the “r” and “I” in “electric”. Has anybody else noticed this happen? I tried to take a photo last time it happened but I was in a parking lot and I had to brake before I got the chance to

If the truck is started with the high-voltage battery still at very fully charge from the engine running extensively (such as from climate control demand or Sport mode) then it goes into a sort of high output mode to expend that energy. The electric motor max output approximately doubles from 25 to 50 hp which makes the box correspondingly larger.

Damn that was a good answer. Thanks for the info! With that in mind I’m gonna try to manually force it for the fun of it. Thank you so much!

Yeah the box gets smaller if you go in electric only until it runs out and kicks the ICE on.
