On my last gasoline fill I did 975 miles on just over 3/4 of a tank of gasoline (roughly 9.7 gallons).
not to rain on your parade but i think we'll be seeing the end of hybrids very soon, i'd give it another 5 years before manufactures drop hybrids completely from their line up and pivot to BEVs.

IMO hybrids are a transitional product inherently, they are a product full of compromises and are only meaningful to exist up till now because battery tech was expensive and prohibitive. I think it's quite clear now that's not the case anymore, so i'm thinking they'll be phased out very soon.
