PEAK HYBRID SYSTEM TORQUE: 267 Lb-Ft.
Published Torque:
Gas Engine: 155 lb-ft peak
Electric Motor: 173 lb-ft peak
Unpublished:
Combined hybrid system peak output.
Tested:
Peak Combined Output: 267 lb-ft
(Computer calculated)
Achieved with high (4000 RPM) engine and low (20 MPH) Motor Speed. Peak Torque is with pedal to the floor, truck at 20 MPH.
University of Nebraska did extensive testing of OBDII computer generated torque values vs. dynamometer testing, and found on a 4.5L diesel engine, OBDII computer calculations were consistently higher, but just 2% higher than dyno.
I collected data via OBDII during two full throttle accelerations from zero to 65 MPH. I only had snapshot values at 1 second intervals so the peak may be slightly higher if it occurred between intervals, but the two runs matched pretty closely.
At highway speeds, torque was about 180 Lb - Ft.
The sweet spot: 20-30 MPH.
EB Maverick can sustain the high torque for as long as gasoline supply lasts. Hybrid Maverick will only be able to sustain high torque for 1-2 minutes, or for as long as the battery charge lasts.
But at least, I have demonstrated (to myself anyway) the hybrid is just as good, as the EcoBoost, for getting your heavy load/trailer going from a stop.

Hope you enjoy reading this half as much as I enjoyed testing it.
Of worthy note: there is a stored value in your truck, like the stored value for engine displacement and manufacture date. There is an on board stored value for 100% Torque Reference Point. The value in my Hybrid Maverick: 245.6 which is close to experimental values.
My first run I got a peak of 253.6.
My second run I got 267.
