    Anyone know what that number is? I'm guessing its over 60 mph since the highway mpg now beats the city mpg. On my 2017 Camry Hybrid it tops out at 47 mph.

    The maximum EV speed permitted when you hit the EV button is only 25 MPH. This, along with a long list of necessary conditions makes the EV button nearly useless.

    The highest automatic EV speed I've seen after overcharging the battery by going down a big hill has been 70 MPH so the maximum speed must be at least 70 MPH.

    Technical info on the 2018 HyCam has been hard to come by.
