Hi Daox,
I have a Ford Fusion Hybrid. My morning commute includes a stretch of about 4 miles, flat, no lights or signals. 40 MPH speed limit. Most mornings I get to beginning of this stretch with the battery at about 50%. I get up to 40 using the ICE and hit cruise. I make it to the next signal in EV with some battery to spare. So my FFH easily does 4 miles in EV starting with 50% soc.
