First post here. Never mind. This discussion is already happening on another thread.
Have an order in for a Bronco but the 4xe is really intriguing. Jeep rates the 4xe at 50mpge, but my question is how long the electric assist works on longer highway trips? I know it depends on how hilly, etc, but I wonder if anyone knows. I know you can choose to turn the electric assist off to save it for later use. I guess I am just curious about how long you will get the good mileage and full power if you drive with both systems on. Also what would the mileage be with just the gas engine. I am really looking forward to real world tests. If the system turned out to be really great then I might be tempted to bag the Bronco and go with a Rubicon just to get the hybrid system.
**After reading another thread here about what 50mpge means, I wonder what the economy will be with both systems working, or just the engine.
