I would take the freeway, unless there are no forced stops on the local route. On the uphill leg find a big rig to break the wind for you, 3-4 stripes behind the truck (126-160 feet). Same thing on the downhill leg except find the spot on your accelerator where the car is truly coasting, no engine or battery use (instruments will tell you). Maximize your coasting at 99+ MPG.
If you can not maintain your target speed without having to use regeneration then approach that spot with lower intiial speed. If you can pick up a vehicle in the right lane that offers you a wind break, it's good for an additional 10 MPG average.
I would think 60 MPG would be possible.
