The only reason I bought a hybrid is because of the great advertised gas mileage. They should be more honest with the numbers, letting customers know the listed mileage is only for warmer weather. If they tested these cars properly, they should know what mileage you can get at what temperatures. I live in Wisconsin. I'm currently getting around 20MPG. I would have never bought the car if I had known that. Another problem I am having is the EV light comes on when the engine is running. No one at the dealership is able to explain this. From what I can gather, I'm the only one this is happening to.
