Normal
When cruising in normal mode Outlander charges the battery a little and then runs for a few minutes on battery with the ice off - this repeating again and again is not because load shifting yields a better ice efficiency, but cause running on electric power is most efficient and cheaper (depending on prices of course)Exactly cause the car can't decide anything it is designed to run the battery flat - use all electric power first and when finished osculating around that point.Better yield ICE efficiency is achieved in parallel mode when the engine is running directly the front wheels and charging the battery with the excess (depending on road conditions) power.So if driving out of battery range one should aim to use the ICE only on the highway and accumulate charge so not to run the engine in series mode (under 65km/h) down the road.

Exactly cause the car can't decide anything it is designed to run the battery flat - use all electric power first and when finished osculating around that point.
Better yield ICE efficiency is achieved in parallel mode when the engine is running directly the front wheels and charging the battery with the excess (depending on road conditions) power.
So if driving out of battery range one should aim to use the ICE only on the highway and accumulate charge so not to run the engine in series mode (under 65km/h) down the road.
