If you want to eliminate aerodynamics as a factor, you could compare the
gasoline only Camry with the hybrid Camry, or the Highlanders or the
RX3?0 and RX400h. There is zero difference in those pairs.

I'm not aware of any websites that analyze these factors in the Prius. Seems
like something like it should exist.....
