I have a gas/electric hybrid - the problem is it’s underpowered b/c it has two smaller engines, neither of which is very powerful. Mileage is nowhere near what was stated at the dealer.

I have 2017 Hyundai base Ioniq hybrid bought new in Jan 2018 - rated @ 59 mpg hwy...
during the summer I sometimes can get 65 mpg with cruise set and on a flat highway.
Winter it only gets about 45 mpg.
Curb weight is approx 2900 lbs...an all electric is approx. 3100 lbs.
I have a lifetime warranty on the hybrid batteries.(Hyundai has since stopped that type of warranty)
I have 41k on it. Tires still have decent read on them.
You are right about HP - 139 total. Yet, I was doing 100 last week and I could still kick it more and it was still a smooth ride.
This is the longest I have ever owned a car and of all of them, this has been the best so I bought an extended service contract, which I never do.
