 PHEV - engine cold start - Dave_
The Ampera isn't a true hybrid though; rather a BEV with a range extender ICE.

On the original topic, there are many Priuses on several hundred thousand miles - a lot of them driven with no mechanical sympathy whatsoever. I would be surprised if full-power cold ICE starts whilst in motion were damaging to the longevity of the power unit, I think we'd have heard about it by now.
