Why don’t they do tests with real loads in them of varying weight Or more so all having the same weight their stock wheels tyres people can relate and gives close to a real world result.

In fairness, there was always going to be the dyno queen comparisons once they put this donk in the Ranger (similar to the controversies when SC Miami was released) Everyone wanted to know the “true” output numbers.
Impossible to get a real world figure with 33” chunky off road tyres on a roller dyno…
So, hubs it is! And pretty impressive at that.
How that translates to “real world” drivability is another thing?
I bet me left one, that if Toyota came out with a 280kw V6 petrol Hilux, EVERYONE here would be hollowing for a dyno graph for proof?
