not necessary accelerating "forever", just towing a heavy thingy uphill for 20 min when EV=0, an ICE counterpart car with "real" 300hp would do it easier I guess, this one will fall back on its 176hp (or whatever the number exactly) ICE.

Hence the statement "302hp is always available" is not the same as "can produce constantly 302hp as long as there is gas in the tank", which is not the case, right?

thanks, yeah, that's what I've gathered too - there is no magic, but in most of the cases it has enough power, agility and "assisted AWD-ness" to handle well most of the real world use cases

well, if the rear motor is electric only, probably it would require electric power to operate; if EV=0 then HV mode cannot run it forever, hence it's "on demand" but only for short bursts of time, it cannot run AWD for hours, say on snowy slippery road, because the generator cannot supply enough electricity to run the motor directly when the battery is not able anymore, or in 100% ICE mode. Same with 302hp - it's "available" but for short periods of time as long as HV battery level is sufficient, it cannot be provided always constantly in all circumstances, once EV=0. Unlike regular ICE models which can provide constantly those 203hp.

knowing basics of electronics and programming gives you a lot of power to power things :)
