I go through how this engine is set up, how the hybrid system actually works, and what’s going on behind the scenes when you’re driving or towing with it. This isn’t just a spec sheet rundown either — I break it down from a mechanic’s perspective and talk about what I actually like about this platform after spending some real time with it. There’s a lot of hype around the PowerBoost, and honestly, some of it’s justified. We’ll cover the power numbers, how the electric motor ties into the drivetrain, and where this setup actually makes sense (and maybe where it doesn’t). I also go through five things that stand out to me as a diesel mechanic — both from a performance and real-world usability standpoint. If you’ve been curious about the PowerBoost or considering one, this should give you a solid understanding of what you’re getting into. 00:00 - Intro 01:13 - History of PowerBoost 02:48 - Engine Power Specs 04:13 - Engine Build Design 12:07 - Electric Motor 15:41 - 5 Things I Like!
