CX-50 Hybrid on a long mountain ascent?

[Snake]

I'm researching new cars.

According to Honda hybrid owners, the battery runs out on a long mountain climb leaving the ICE to do the duty, greatly reducing the power and therefore lowering the ability to keep speed.

How does your CX-50 Hybrid do on a long mountain ascent?

Can't imagine it is an issue. Yes the battery may be low, but it is still being charged to maintain about 40% battery. This means you will use a bit of gasoline and engine power and that power is plenty for climbing all mountains in North America for sure and likely all the world. Keep in mind you have a Toyota powertrain which could well be different from Honda.

I just travelled 1200 km in the Rockies between BC and Alberta, both to the west and return to east. Many long climbs of grades especially west to east on hiway 3. Never had an issue and battery power did not get below 40%. You need not be concerned with this.
