could really be down to driving style too, a hybrid can help when driven sensibly, but can be about as wasteful as an equivalent engine if you drive like aggressively... *shrug*

drive a Prius aggressively you still get 48mpg. all aggression in a prius is
going to immediately use the battery for added torque.

the only thing that makes a Prius suck gas is extended highway around 80mph
or serious hooliganism

Honda did fail
