Though it totally defeats the reason most buy an Energi (Hybrid), I got curious about what it would run in the 1/4 mile. I was at the track yesterday and figured... Why not run it? It's by far the slowest car I've ever driven at the track, but it was just for fun. I made 5 passes and it's consistent... Consistently slow.. it ran (3) 16.2 @ 86 mph passes and (2) 16.5 @ 86 mph passes.
If it could leave at anything more than idle it would be quicker, but not quick by any means.
After driving it harder than normal, I was still averaging 290 mpg when I got home..
