HEV or PHEV? More to it than just economy?

I set out with the SOC saying 48 miles and I did two trips on mainly A roads, with lights and heating, seats etc and very windy. I actually got the 48 miles with the ICE only cutting in for the last few miles. I was happy enough with that.

But At what mileage did the ICE kick in? My mileages of 50 and 42 are entirely in EV mode - if the ICE is kicking in then it is not comparable.

I did 48 miles on pure EV then the ICE kicked in for the last few miles home. Sorry if it did not read that clearly.

Thanks again for all the helpful replies.  After a bit of a struggle to get the right deal, I've ordered a Plug-in Dynamic Premium in Scarlet Flare red.  Sadly, it's looking like it will be October before I see the car, though...
