I came home from work a little bit ago. I didn't take note of the numbers when I got home but again the engine came on while going across the bridge. When I was about 1.5 miles from my house I ran out of EV range. Now here's the one annoying thing that happened to me. When I did run out of EV range and the engine came on I was in an area with constant stop lights every block. So when I stopped at the first light the engine was running since I had JUST run out of EV range before that. I sat there with that running engine bothering me lol. I know its got to run through the warm up but after going something like 15.5 to 16 miles of blended EV having the engine finally run is not a sound you want to hear. Still, for me this is the car I have been waiting for. I had to go a different route home since I needed to make a stop at my dealer but had I gone my normal route I think I would have made it to and from work without having to recharge at work and still only have the engine start on the bridge.

When have you received the PiP? I haven't see your update news until now.
