Ticks available for EV?

Hi all,

 

So coming from a totalled Fusion Hybrid we'd always see up to 2 ticks on the empower screen. I was once on a long downhill drive and swore it gliched up to 3.

 

Anyways I saw this picture in another thread and the Energi will give you up to 4 ticks, and in hybrid mode go back to 2? Hmm if this is the case and the ticks aren't variable then this means the hybrid maxes out at 40kW to the electric motor where the the energi can get closer to it's 88 spec'd max?

I don't know what the maximum discharge limit is for the Hybrid.  Ford's web site specifies what it is for the Energi, but not the Hybrid. 

 

The above chart is actually showing the maximum charge limit for the HVB.  Charging is limited to 35 kW.  But when the battery is cold, the charge limit is significantly less. 

 

The discharge limit is also temperature dependent, but is not limited as much as is charging.  It is usually in the upper 60's.

So sounds like the amount of kW available to the electric motor is different between EV mode (4 ticks) vs hybird mode (2 ticks)... Thanks for all the replies.

Edit: Found my answer here by you again:
