Cars.com Hybrid Mileage Challenge: Video

In the first two installments of Cars.com’s Mileage Challenge, we took you through our daylong city drive to see what sort of real-world gas mileage various hybrid cars serve up. Each hybrid in our challenge had a battery of displays to convey instant and cumulative fuel economy. Some also had power flow displays or mileage history readouts, while others had meters showing the amount of electric boost or how much braking energy was recharging the battery. That’s a lot of information, and each car had a different take on how to convey it. Naturally, some did better than others.

Thanks for the review of the screens, I would think that those are very helpful in the 'learning to drive my hybrid' stage?

Great video, very informative. You guys should teach Yahoo how to run videos as they never seam to operate properly. At least I know when I click on a Cars.com video it's just like YouTube. You click and the video starts.
