True, but the hybrids rate poor on long distance highway driving. They
just do not regenerate enough energy.


How do the hybrids fair in cold weather? Assume you park it outside
overnight without being "plugged in" in subfreezing temps. Do the
batteries lose capacity and affect drivability until they warm up again?

I live in California. We do not know what cold is. You have to ask those
people in the Northeast.
