Total distance/range traveled w/i8

Searched but didn’t find....

If I were to start out with a full tank of gas and 100%charge and started out for a long ride on a highway like i95 or any major highway that you normally drive at speeds around 70 to 80 mph, how far could I go before refilling or even charging? I assume the car would be set on comfort to avoid charging and best overall gas mileage? Or is there a better setting for this kind of trip? Obviously I do not own one of these and currently considering so any insight is appreciated.

I get pretty close to 400 miles under those conditions.

Eco-Pro mode gives you the best mileage.

Comfort will get you close, Eco-Pro is better. Keeping it closer to 70 than 80 will also help.
