Mr. BlahLaLa is recovering from an injury and can't drive his car. How often do I need to drive it to keep it in good shape?

It has been one week since Mr. BlahLaLa has driven. It will be at least two weeks more, but up to five weeks more. The car is safely garaged and won't be subjected to very hot or cold temps. It's a Honda Insight, so a hybrid. It has a brand-new battery.

Given those details, do I need to drive it at all? (I don't love driving it but I will if I have to.) How often do I need to drive it ? When I drive it, how long a drive does it need to be?

Thanks.
