Perhaps ask your wife to try out the cruise control and see if it makes a difference?
i'm pretty sure it will getting better with out CC on Hybrid if u have a chance go the same road and do it again... CC on our Hybrid just suxk cause they can't control the gas like u do unless 100% flate road or down hill. i know i have tried few time on the same road when i'm off work which atleast 3 or 4MPG better than CC
