Default Re: HiHy FE Tips

Thanks for the info, as a prospective buyer of my first hybrid I found this article very informative!

One question, point: I was reading on this site that using the "b" should be avoided since it doesn't allow the ICE to stop (the ICE is used as the engine break). If this is true then I don't think using "B" is that fuel efficient (maybe if the ICE runs without using any gas). I suspect that coasting using light break pressure (reg. breaking) would work better.

That said, I've never even been in a hybrid so this is just me taking a wild stab. Will be interesting so see what people think.
