That 100 mpg is really going to very depending on what type of driving: 50mi/day (from article) might be on target for some businesses (trades: go to location to work), but a courier/delivery driver could be looking at a few hundred miles a day. I wonder what sort of mileage it would be getting after 100 miles of driving. 40mpg* still sounds a bit high for a vehicle the size of a minivan, may still be running down the battery at that point?
*mpg=miles/gallon => gallons=miles/mpg
50mi (per day) / 100mpg = .5 gal used after 50mi
50mi total - 30mi battery only = 20mi gas/battery
20mi gas/battery / .5gal = 40mpg
