Cold Engine Video
Just pulled out of my driveway, car still cold. Cold Engine light is on. Video shows RPMs at 1600-1700 at 25-30 MPH. Foot off of accelerator once car reaches 25 MPH. Car able to power itself. Also notice no regen when foot off of gas. Useful for people with short commutes to show different car behavior when engine is cold.
Auto Stop Video
Shows how not to re-engage the engine when pulling into your end/final destination. Not much FE saving, but saves 500 auto stop restart ups a year if you are commuting every day for your end points. Less wear and tear on the car.
Hill Climb Video 2
Video shows a small descent to about 60-61 MPH, then a small ascent back to 58 MPG, then a sharp descent to 69 MPH, then a fairly long ascent to 54 MPH to the top. At end of video as I came over the hill there was lots of break lights and traffic slowing so you can see the beginning of coasting as assist comes on and speed drops rapid to 52 at end of video.
Video shows minimal assist (zero assist) when climbing and maintaining 50+ MPG going up/down the highway grades at normal driving speed(s).
