And if you needed any proof that heavy EV driving kills FE just look at my first tank with the Prius when I had no idea how it worked. 90% city driving with heavy EV produced 56.74 mpg for the tank. My recent tanks in similar city driving are more in the 60-61 mpg range now that I use less EV.
Same goes for highway driving. Over 2 tanks of all highway (over 800 miles) I pulled about 51 mpg. My previous tank of 400+ miles (200+ highway miles) was in the 60 mpg range using Super Highway Mode.
Proof is in the pudding!
