Settled for a brand new Ford Escape PHEV. Can almost buy 2 of em compared to what dealers are selling Primes at.
Love that even when the battery is dead it somehow sips even less fuel than my Honda Fit.

I'm getting around 4.0L/100km with my Outlander PHEV, and that's with quite a bit of highway driving. If you look at the energy flow, the ICE will charge the battery and sometimes power the wheels. For some reason it means that the actual fuel consumption is very, very low. It's breaking the laws of physics!
