I’ve been testing out my new 45e, and today I was switching between:
- Battery Control mode
- On downhills, I switched to Hybrid (Eco) - thinking this would regenerate more - I think Hybrid/Standard does better, because I feels like Eco disengages the transmission (like my previous cars did when coasting)
- On uphills, I switched to Sport

I have no idea if this is the best way - but I can tell you I picked up a few extra electric miles, in about 10 miles worth of driving. Probably used extra gas in the process, because the MPGs are very low in the Battery Control mode.
