I have noticed that Hybrids typically come with instrumentation that could show a driver how to drive more efficiently, and that many hybrid owners are interested in conserving fuel. I have also noticed that people in this forum have reported significant gains in their fuel economy since installing a scangauge or comparable instrumentation, and like many hybrid owners, the people who use a scangauge are interested in boosting their fuel economy.

What I am concerned about, is that I can't find any actual data that supports hybrids being able to be more efficient. I am not talking about mpg claims, I am talking about science. What technology makes a hybrid any more efficient than the comparable ICE?
