A high-mileage driver has discovered a technique to force the Ford Maverick Hybrid into electric-only mode at highway speeds, significantly improving fuel economy on long commutes.
The Ford Maverick Hybrid is known for its impressive fuel economy, with official EPA ratings of 42 MPG city and 33 MPG highway. However, dedicated owners have found ways to optimize the hybrid system through careful management and precise driving techniques.
Mark Riley's work on Maverick hybrid optimization demonstrates the potential for control and optimization in modern hybrid systems. By understanding complex vehicle systems, experienced drivers can push efficiency even further.
These discoveries demonstrate how modern hybrid systems offer far more control and optimization potential than most drivers realize.
