As I avoid driving in stop and go conditions, it would not noticeably impact my fuel economy.
However I'll need a new battery regardless as mine started failing and I had to jumpstart a few times already.

Generaly speaking, I'd prefer hybridisation for shorter trips as that allows you to not run the ICE at all.
But in the end, the most efficient cat for a trip is no car and the most efficient route is no route.
If something is less than 10 km away, I usualy ride my bike there.
If it's further, I try going by bike+train. (or if the weather is nice and it's less than 20 km away, I might just ride there)
