The article actually states that they lengthened the route to include more town driving to give the hybrid a chance to show its stuff... So it wasn't just highway miles.

Boy, just imagine if they'd tried to level the playing field the other way and used a 3 series or a jetta....

Hybrid technology is a sham.
