A system for monitoring torque supplied by a motor of a motor vehicle, for example an electric or hybrid vehicle. The system includes a mechanism determining a driver's request for torque, a mechanism estimating torque produced by a propulsion unit, a mechanism filtering the driver torque request which is connected at an input to a mechanism determining consistency between the torque request and the torque produced including a mechanism determining consistency of positive torque and a mechanism determining consistency of negative torque each including a mechanism determining phases of quasi-static variation of the request and a mechanism detecting torque anomalies which can construct an acceptable torque template and determine that a torque anomaly has occurred as a function of the torque estimate, the torque request, and the acceptable torque template.
