AFS Trinity Power's new SUV features a trick new "Fast Energy Storage" system. On electric power alone the Extreme Hybrid has a 40-mile range and in hybrid mode it has an extended range of 400 miles...

Isn't it more accurately 150 miles per gallon AND fully charged battery pack? What is the gasoline equivelant energy stored in the battery? These MPG shenanigans are sooooo 2007.
