A vehicle includes an engine, motor, powertrain, and controller. The engine and the motor are each configured generate power within the powertrain. The controller is programmed to, in response to full depression of accelerator and brake pedals while the vehicle is stopped and the powertrain is in drive, increase engine power to a maximum power output capacity and increase a motor torque to a predetermined torque output that is less than a maximum torque capacity.
