My Escape, when the hybrid battery is dead, going to speed limit, is 6.5L/100km.

If I am doing 20 over, that rises to 7.8L/100km.

My daily round trip (charging at home and work, 45 minute drive each way) is 3.2L/100km.

This is all highway driving, which hybrids are notoriously worse for fuel efficiency on. The non-hybrid model of my car advertised a 5.6L/100km highway efficiency, though don't know how realistic that is.
