Is this power flow screen something only the Sync 3 system gets?

[MostlySafeBear]

I was watching a TFL video on hybrid towing (impressive to me, considering its limits), and in the process (he started the video in an XL hybrid, then moved to a Lariat hybrid, apparently with a luxury package) he showed a power flow animation on the infotainment. I've only seen that hybrid power flow screen on F-150 hybrids with the base Sync 4, and I've never seen it in a Maverick before.

Lariat Hybrid, as visible from 3:56 to 4:03. Likely has the lux package to get the 4-pin towing connector/hitch. Power flow screen shown at 6:26.

I suppose it could be modded in, but as you say it wouldn't show anything, so why have it?

To each their own I guess, but for me, having a dead screen showing the UI but no data ever, would be very annoying.

Well obviously no one wants a dead screen. I dunno maybe the AWD system sending power around in off road modes would be cool.

That's outside the scope of my limited knowledge. As far as I know, the screen I showed in the video only shows hybrid info, and cannot ever show AWD info, unless Ford codes it specifically to do so. Modders may know better than me, and there is a community of them, but I don't yet understand the Sync system internals very well.

From what little I've seen so far, the Sync 3 modder community is mostly not US-based, and I don't think there is a global version of the Maverick yet.

Probably not what you're looking for, but there's a little AWD screen on the instrument cluster that shows torque applied to each of the 4 wheels in realtime.
