hmmm, can't speak to your personal experience but the objective data says something different. given that the combined mpg between hch.ii and prius ii are relatively the same (and it may turn out that ima in hch.ii surpasses the gen ii prius this year) it must either be:
1. hsd and ima get relatively the same mpg at both city and highway speeds.
2. hsd gets better city but ima gets better highway mpg.
3. hsd gets better highway but ima gets better city.
given that the above 3 scenarios define all possible result sets, i'm willing to place my bet on #2.
