"Average horsepower of all hybrid models"
Yes, in quotation marks. What a joke. Until this year there were, what, 3 hybrids? What's the margin of error on THAT graph, 50%? lol

Thinking of SD (standard deviation) perhaps ?
Horsepower in my book equates to waste and poor design.
*Low HP, high torque* Now you are talking :-)
Give me a denser battery over a bigger engine anytime.
And make it hot-pluggable while you are at it.

That's why "average" isn't as meaningful as median. The median was probably unchanged over nearly all those years, but because Honda came out with the 255hp Accord hybrid, it brought the "average" way up.

Median is useless with such a small sample size, though. A 5, 10, 15 and 200 horsepower car set has a median of 15. That isn't representative. The fact that they "averaged' in any way and graphed the "data" is the baloney I'm talking about. It's extremely misleading.
