Default Have you experience this?

When driving on a highway for more than 30mins on ICE, and entering back on city roads, the EV mode kicks in like normal when I hit my first stop light. Then I continue on the road to the next stop light and EV mode kicks in, but a few seconds later the ICE turns on while stopped. I feel the shudder and have a feeling like "what's going on?" Then it works like normal on the rest of the way to my destination.

I was wondering if any of you experience that? Is it charging the battery? I thought driving on the highway for awhile should to the trick. It's not that big of an concern, but I can pretty much duplicate it every time, just at different times on the road. Just wondering if this is normal?

Thanks.
