The majority of the time I don't notice the ICE start up or stop.

As Droid13 said, if you are in motion, it is very smooth. Starting from a light, if you goose it, the startup shudder is noticable, but if you start rolling on EV the shudder is less pronounced.

I also have had my TCH 15 months and 25,000 miles. So far I have not noticed any increase in the ICE shudder on starting.
