our prius has to go some 15km (9,3mls) usualy. it is possibil to hold the engines temperature all the way down, with the A/C. no chance to get hybrid stage 4, even after 6mls at 60mph.
but the car isn´t warme inside anyway. somewhat less target temperatur, and switching off the A/C if not neccecary, helps a lot. put some drying packs (from electronic stuff or paintballs f.i.) into the car, to keep the windows free.
a grill block is crucial. i prefer foam stripes and my numberplate is blocking a big part all seasons. but without a scangauge u are pretty much blind, at temperature managing.
