Scott, thank you so much for
Scott, thank you so much for the feedback! Your commute seems perfect for a hybrid, with plenty of time for the regenerative braking to add back energy a conventional vehicle would lose. That lag in the averaging of the fuel economy in the display is normal, and I see it often in many different brands of test-vehicle. One other thing you bring up is that all green cars do best when the owner drives like an adult. They are not designed to help those that want jack-rabbit starts and high speeds with lots of hard braking. Thanks again for your comments.
