*: The driving range will vary in accordance with conditions such as vehi- cle speed, the amount of charge remaining in the hybrid battery (trac- tion battery) and the usage of the air conditioning system. The gasoline engine may also be used simultaneously in accordance with driving conditions. PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47831E_(EE)

Also, the gasoline engine will start, depending on acceleration or the vehicle speed.  Restrain your speed as much as possible. The EV driving range will reduce considerably at high speeds. PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47831E_(EE)
Page 49 The EV driving range can be extended by actively using this regenerative braking to store electricity in the hybrid battery (traction battery). The regenerative braking system can be used effectively to reduce the fuel consumption also when in HV mode. PRIUS PHV_OM_OM47831E_(EE)
