At 3:30am, high 80 degree weather, car has been sitting for at least nine hours, as I leave my house for work, I start the car, back out the driveway, go about 50 yards to a stopsign, and as I come to a stop the car goes into autostop. NO warming up. The water temp gauge only reads the first one, two, or three bars. Of course, my ambient outside temps are above average. But still, the car does't require any significant engine component warm up before the hybrid parts become fully functional.
