...uh, how many KILOMETERS to a MILE? or was that LITERS-PER-FURLONG?
...my (YMMV) simplistic summary:

B) IC-vehicles do better on HIGHWAYS than in CITY.
...and, predominately IC-vehicles don't "...run out of steam..." at >65 mph as small-engined hybrids do (notice the current, larger engined Prius doesn't follow the same downward trend of its two predecessors).
