I use EV mode every day my Prius since I have a plugin kit. I've also used it without the plugin kit and I'm saying in normal driving you're lucky to get 1 mile. If I was already up to speed and just coasting along, yeah you can get more. I'm also not sure, but I'd guess the Fusion's pack is larger than the Prius' pack just because its a larger vehicle.

If you're looking at pollution, you aren't going to get much better than a Prius unless you go to an EV.
