Even when the battery range has shown "—-" on my 45e and 50e, I've yet to experience a situation where only the ICE moves the car when the pedal is pressed to the floor. It's a very smart system.
Thanks appreciate you sharing your experience.

Physics / engineering typically allows you to think in black and white hence why it’s so confusing / concerning for some.
