Also, I love it that I only spent $27 to fill just over half a tank of gas, for my first fuel-up.

57 mpg average over an 80 mi trip today was pretty freakin' sweet.
I figured out that "brake hold" mode on the Honda Civic Hybrid makes the car stop creeping forward after a full stop like a gas vehicle. It's not *quite* single pedal driving mode, but it'll do.
I miss my manual transmission, but I don't miss 34 mpg.

@xabean You know what's weird? I've never ridden in a hybrid or an electric car. I don't know anyone who owns one that I would also be in their car.

@ra6bit from my experience hybrids at least are pretty similar to normal ICE vehicles, at least toyota's system for it is. Traction battery isn't large enough to sustain the vehicle by itself but rather it provides a "boost" to the combustion engine's output to keep it operating in it's "efficiency sweet-spot" as much as possible. Some hybrids are built differently than others though(series vs parallel) so I can imagine there is some variation.

@InfosecFemthing @ra6bit my Honda Civic is something similar to toyoya's system, or may be a licensed version of it, because the "4th generation" sounds strikingly similar to what Tech Connections described in a recent video
