    Hello,
    I am trying to master this thing.
    question is:
    Can you glide(meaning no engine engaging) on straight road with out a hill with out loosing any speed over 40mph?
    I only can when my speed is dropping.
    I can drive all electric around town without EV mode, no problem.
    Stock Yokohama's, front and rear @ 40psi. will bump them to 44psi.
    Also oil is higher the high mark, which i am planing to drain.
    any thought would be appreciated.
    THanks,
    C

    On your car you can go up to about 45 mph with engine off. You'll always lose speed with a glide unless you're going downhill, since there's only a slight bit of electric propulsion behind it.
