If it’s 20 miles and you can charge the other side. I would just leave it and not over think it. It will cover you with electric.
If no chance to charge. I would, as above, set the sat nav to destination and return. The car will then work out when best to use the electricity. And you should find you get home to zero charge. Rather than just use the electricity for the first 20 miles.
In pure mode, the amount of press down on the gas pedal needed to turn on the ice goes higher, it’s more forgiving to keep the ice off.
