What does the hybrid do?

7.6 apparently, 7 for EB

Both according to motortrend

MT's numbers are way higher than all the other published test results, hovering in the mid-6's for 2.0 EB / AWD. Maybe they had the selector in Eco mode.

TFL on YouTube got 7.4 with their hybrid.

That's ok I'm the guy that tries to keep it in the eco range, was averaging 51.6 mpg on the way home tonight in the big Prius v.

You mean lower? 6.2 secs is the lowest 0-60 I've seen yet for the ecoboost. I saw a video of 6.5, but the owner didn't have the tow package and was using 87 octane. So figure 6.2 to 6.3 secs for the AWD w/tow and 6.4-6.5 secs for AWD without tow. No matter what, very respectable numbers. The Maverick XL/XLT & Lariat wasn't meant to be an ST version performance model.

Both this and the 7.4 hybrid number seem suspiciously quick. For the EB it's well documented it's around 6.7ish. And for hybrid I'd expect around 8.1ish. Perfectly fine for me in the hybrid either way.

there are not too many 0-60 times on the hybrid, but the few that are out there are in the 7.4-7.8 range, which is very respectable for a base engine.

Coming from a Fit even 7.8 would feel amazing in a truck lol

Im up to 17 mpg on the F150 = awesome. More than enough.

It's a different style of driving, learned it whole driving delivery trucks, watch traffic a mile ahead and behind you, you are big and slow so need extra time and hate shifting, slow down before you get to the red light and maybe not have to stop at all, driving a hybrid is the same way, pulse and glide.

You guys looking to tune your trucks here you go.

Much of the discrepancy comes from elevation. The best times from an ICE vehicle will be near sea level with a higher barometric pressure. TFL usually has worse 0-60 times because they are based out of Boulder, CO in mile high altitudes. They even admit that. That video racing those trucks, even the fastest Tundra and Raptor could not break under 7 seconds in the high altitude. Car and Driver does their tests on a track they own in low elevation California, which is why they get fast times. I think Motorweek does their tests in low elevation Maryland and they get quick times too.

The one exceptions is hybrids and EV’s. They are not reliant on air mixture and may even have an advantage in high elevation since now there is a tiny bit less air resistance.

the handheld ET meters that TFL and Redline Reviews are neat. Would like to have one to measure my motorcycle. Does anyone know how much they cost and who makes them. Not sure what to call them, hence hard to look up.
