Thanks for your question. It's actually pretty difficult to maximize fuel efficiency since it would require a lot of driver engagement as you drive adjusting to traffic patterns. So many things factor in such as the terrain, outside temperature, SUV climate settings and accessory use. You should also make sure you maintain correct tire pressures to reduce drag. Try alternating between the ECO mode and SMART mode to see which one results in better overall efficiency over one your regular trips. Keep in mind that the published EPA mileage estimate is under controlled conditions for all vehicles tested.
@@ReviewsMore422 The whole reason I went for the HEV is because it has a spare. The battery takes the spot of the spare on the PHEV. The Tucson gives you a tire mobility kit with their HEV so that was out of the running.
Can you do a tutorial on how to correctly drive a hybrid to get most gas efficiency?

Is this car available? I would like to test-drive it.
Did the vehicle come with a spare tire?
Yes on the HEV, I don't think it comes with the PHEV version.

Do you find the headlight brightness adequate?
Yes on the Prestige, not sure about the lower trims. I believe the 2024 will have LED standard on the lower trim levels.
