    I'm not sure if you have seen anything like this before, but check it out. Local Toyota dealers asked people to try their hybrids, logged test drives with gps/obd -data and shared it all. It's somewhat interesting to see how ICE is cycled on and off.

    Cool! I'm surprised the PHV used the engine that often. I guess it wasn't fully charged before he/she set out?

    Probably they don't always have the time to recharge it between test drives.
