Default Got it today finally O8 NAH with TECH

After 6 months, I got my Hybrid Altima with tech in Jade. All options.

I drove it back the 60 miles to my home on two lane highways. Average speed was between 50-58. Computer said I avg.38.2 miles per gallon. Outside Temp was 37 degrees most of the way.I am very happy with that. From some of the professional reviews and even some of the customers, I was concerned what the transition was going to be between EV and ICE mode and back again. I have to say that it was really hardly noticable. It felt more like a gear shift on a manual but even less about 25% of that. Most of the time, I didn't notice and now I don't think it will enter my mind other than when looking at the display.

I tired to get the energy flow meter to shut down all flows for a test glide but couldn't do it once. I wonder if that feature was software out on the NAH.

This is the most fun I have had with a car in a long time. it's like the first trip to DisneyWorld. Well maybe not that exciting but pretty close.
