When going 60mph+, its best to use the ICE.

87 but hey, what's 2mph between friends
Its no different to running petrol really in terms of what consumes the most, energy use is high getting up to speed quickly or up inclines when maintaining a high speed you can still do this on little electric and it does a decent job, requires a lightfoot and obviously any down hill stuff knock into b for best recovery.

The car does a decent job of managing itself when using Googles topology data for smart energy distribution.
but you can just leave the driving page up, that's what I do all other stuff I'm interested in is on the other display anyway.
