Hybrid cars' gas mileage can vary significantly depending on the specific model, driving conditions, and battery usage. Here are some general ranges for different types of hybrid vehicles:

1. Conventional Hybrids:

- City: 40-55 MPG

- Highway: 40-50 MPG

2. Plug-in Hybrids (PHEVs):

- City: 50-65 MPG (combined gasoline and electric)

- Highway: 40-55 MPG (gasoline only)

- Electric Range: Typically 20-50 miles solely on battery power

3. Mild Hybrids:

- City: 35-45 MPG

- Highway: 35-42 MPG

4. Full Hybrids:
