I think most would agree that gliding, whether in neutral or by pedal manipulation is more efficient than coasting (no pedal input in drive, regen...
I don't see any particular downside to using N under these circumstances. I personally use EV mode in similar conditions at the end of my...
drysider's comment seems consistent with hobbit's observation that the Prius won't go into warp stealth when the shifter is in N, but rather...
