I don't no if it could run a couple of meters electric in a traffic jam?

And you can always overrule by putting it the gear into sport.
Let's hope there is a menu control, because the "solution" of Sport drive mode or Sport shift mode is the opposite of lower emissions and fuel economy as intended.
