IMBFOS, but as I understand hybrids, most are in regenerative braking mode when they auto stop on a downgrade. That's not quite coasting.
Coasting on a downgrade in neutral (engine off or running) is prohibited in Arizona per ARS 28-895. So I don't coast on downgrades. That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!

In the Prius, if you position the accelerator pedal correctly you will coast without regeneration. Let up on the pedal some more and you get regeneration.
