2-Mode Hybrids in the Snow
 

I don't just mean GM's Two-Mode, but any strong/full hybrid.

I was driving today and aside from terrible gas mileage (13MPG on the computer when I got home six miles later--new tank) I noticed something else.

The readout which shows energy flow below the speedometer was getting jittery. Normally, the power-flow arrows are steady moving dashed lines. Today, they were alternating between dashed and near-solid.

What gives? Some kind of traction thing? (Poorly plowed roads, for the win!)

LCD's don't like cold. All cars lose mileage in slushy snow.

Oh yes they do. Check my fuel log:o.
