I would like to see the vehicle performance in hot and cold weather. My 2008 Mariner Hybrid (gas) gives great results in mild weather when the engine isn't required to provide heat or drive the air conditioner compressor. Once the weather migrates out of the range where the engine can remain off, the economy goes right down the tubes. My Mariner has does as well as 32 MPH in mild weather. This winter, the mileage dropped to 21.9 MPG. We are currently running at 25.7 MPG as the weather has moderated.
