Good stuff! I was wondering how the clutching might be executed on the hybrid, but to be honest I assumed that it was more of an instant-on with the way it sometimes bumps forward after releasing the brake from an auto stop. Actually, if I'm stopped in drive while the engine remains on I can feel an impulse like it wants to push forward. After some time, say 15 seconds, it seems to relent as if the transmission has chosen to go idle.
