    EV mode won't work if:
    1)Heater in Use
    2)Hybrid system too hot (left in sun)
    3)Hybrid system too cold (left out below 32F for prolonged time), or if outside temp is below 14F!
    4)Other expected conditions -- threashold for acceleration, speed over 62mph, etc.

    LOL i love this: "When children are in the vehicle Observe the following precautions.
    Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
    Do not leave children alone in the luggage compartment.
    If a child is accidentally locked in the luggage compartment, they could have heat exhaustion."
    I love how it says don't leave them alone in the luggage compartment. I'm no parent, but I'm pretty sure a child should never be IN the luggage compartment, let alone with other people.

    Not ever turning on if the temperature is below 14F?! Not even after I warm up the cabin using the ICE? I wonder how many Minnesota days that cancels of my EV driving?

    The battery vents in the right rear seat back seem like an odd choice, if you did have three people back there it looks like it would be blocked by a hip. Does the liftback have vents there too?
