As Wayne said, I had a 4 wheel drive FEH for a week and I think it is a bit harder to get the FEH to slip in EV mode than a 2005 Prius. A bit more of a challenge to hypermile, especially in cold weather.
I mainly got mpg's in the upper 20's but I was able to obtain 30-33 mpg on some trips - pretty good for weather in the 20's. I took a 200 mile round trip and got about 27 mpg, that was at 65mph highway driving with a family of five on board in cold Wisconsin weather. Not bad.
I'm certain if I can retest it in warmer weather, that I can do better.
