Nope, never went into EV mode at 70MPH, that's in NC with flat roads with two different Niro Models. I've had them go into EV at 65MPH with a slightly down grade road for a short time. 60 and below, EV when I do my part, very easy, even in a slight uphill grade. Oh well must be me even tho I do try hypermileing it in faster speeds..............................My LX often goes EV at just over 70 mph on cruise control. Not sure I understand your point though. Mpg figures are still relevant at 75 mph in hybrid mode. If you watch the flow diagram, the motor is often contributing, especially up hills at any speed.
My Niro went into EV a couple times yesterday @70MPH, only for ~15 seconds. I wasn't attempting hyper-miling, the car just "planed out" on a level road. Also one time that I noticed when my wife was driving at 70, didn't notice if it was in CC.Nope, never went into EV mode at 70MPH, that's in NC with flat roads with two different Niro Models.
