On cold winter days, all vehicles, machines (and people) get less mileage to the gallon. Hybrids drivers care about fuel economy, and will notice the difference more than others.
Testing from the Idaho National Laboratory revealed that the use of air conditioning has a dramatic impact on hybrid fuel economy.
High-performance vehicles get relatively more efficient at high speeds, while hybrid efficiency remains constant. Aggressive driving burns more gas for both.
Improving the way a vehicle moves through air is simultaneously the least expensive and most effective way for carmakers to increase fuel efficiency.
