unlimited if you include electricity from the wall. barring that, maybe 100-1200 if you give it to wayne gerdes, or 7-800k for us humans. for the record, you probably have to go to the spreadsheet.
good point. mmm, tough one to figure. i think it uses 2 oz. to warm up? i suppose it depends on ambient temp, but that would be 124 x 64 x 10 = ?
According to this post by usbseawolf2000, the 2 warm ups he tested used up 0.03 and 0.035 gallons. How much gas does it use to warm up the ICE? | PriusChat So, 10.6 gallon tank / 0.03 (or 0.035) gallons x 124 miles = 37,554 to 43,813 theoretical miles on one tank of gas. Of course, this will void your warranty because Toyota recommends filling 5.3 gallons of gas every 6 six months.
For those who can get away with EV only and just have to set a record here, one way to keep the gas fresh - start with a few ounces and add the 0.03 to 0.035 gallons for each 120 something miles of warm-up. Just don't underestimate the gasoline needs or else...
Haha, quite right! That would be for the wrong record - would get highest mpg but a pretty lousy tank range.
AHHHHHH! Kidding aside what do you think? 4,000 to 6,000 miles before six months is up and we have to burn gas?
Well I just wrecked my mpg with a 90 mile RTrip to the airport and back - was 91% EV before leaving, dropped to 89% now - but I'm now at 2,800 miles still haven't filled up. The Gas bars dropped so looks like half a tank and it'll be 3 months next week. So with no more gas guzzling longer drives I could hit 6,000 miles before the 6 months is up and have 2 gallons to go. btw - was driving 70mph and ended up at 54mpg in hybrid mode on way home last night
Sorry for the dumb question, but what is "EBH"? I have a pretty good grasp of the technology, but sometimes I miss the TLAs.
