I'm often surprised by the performance. Its hilly where we live, and when I need to accelerate fast, it just goes. I'm usually in fuel economy mode, but its nice to have the power when you need it.

I finally drove our V8 Land Cruiser (which we are getting rid of) for the first time since purchasing our HiHy last month, and it feels sluggish and lumbering compared to the HiHy.

I just hope it doesn't let me down when ski season comes around.
