About a week and a half ago my mom bought the 2011 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid. She has been scared that she isn't getting the gas mileage that was expected. She thought she wouldn't use the amount of gas she used in the first couple of days she had the car. So she went back to the dealership to ask more questions and also get a scratch buffed out. They told her that the car needs to be broken in, they say it takes awhile before the car can be in electric mode more often. So my question to you is if this is true. Also I was wondering how the car uses the electric and gas, like how does it switch, when does it switch, etc. The dealer said its always electric unless you go over 74mph. But that's bullshit because my mom never goes over 74 and she used gas in the first couple of days. I would greatly appreciate it if someone would help me out, whoever is good with cars, mostly hybrids would have the best bet at answering this.

Lol ^^ I know what you mean...
But just in case... I believe electric cars switch modes based on requirements... if you press the accelerator lightly then electric torque is enough but pushing the pedal all the way would trigger it to use fuel. kms/h shouldn't control the modes..
So ask her to drive slower :lol:
This is just my logical guess though.. maybe ask your mum to read the manual :)

The subject has nothing to do with the topic... why do this lol
