    Yes, frequent short trips and the engine is often in the warming stage will reduce fuel consumption performance. Before the test, the journey is basically guaranteed to be more than 10km, so that the mpg is in a high state. It will decrease during normal driving. I will continue to report on the changes of MPG.

    Ambient temperature and humidity have a big influence on the prius, bigger than non hybrid cars. If you live in a warm country you will enjoy the prius efficency at the top of its capabilities

    Yes, I'm warm here and the temperature doesn't change much, which does have a positive effect on the engine and the hybrid system. The prius is a good car. The current state is that it has the capacity it should have. The fuel consumption is better than before the high-voltage battery was replaced. It used to be the highest at 28km/l.But driving was much more conservative back then，
    I feel like it can now reach higher fuel consumption levels if very careful
