Separate names with a comma.
Due to overwhelming (ahem) demand, I'm breaking this out into its own thread. 252.2mi, 102 kWh. 40.4 kWh/100mi or 2.48 mi/kWh (+26 gas, 0.8gal)...
200 wh/mi from the battery is 48 miles, which is easily done. From the wall, it's 65 or so, which is high but has been done. Wayne at...
My "lifetime" average is 2.99, not 2.48. It's measured at the wall with a Kill-A-Watt. I always exclude gas miles from the calculation. 4.3 is...
I didn't use any gasoline that week.
Weekly reports for those who have been waiting anxiously : 252.2mi, 102 kWh. 40.4 kWh/100mi or 2.48 mi/kWh (+26 gas, 0.8gal) 175.5mi, 60.5...
You know I strive for politeness. :D Well, it clearly stops accelerating and displays "speed limited to 101" at 101mph, so I'm a first person...
It's not tied to the wheel speed directly because it's a planetary drivetrain. Doesn't the Prius behave the same way? MT also posted an ICE...
It is electronically limited.
Lutz was never the CEO. Wagoner was until the Gov asked him to resign.
I have covered this in many posts in the "success or failure" thread but the summary is: 3.1 miles/kWh (as measured by my Kill-A-Watt) average...
From a utility perspective, you could reasonably argue you are wasting it and would be better served with a smaller, more efficient HSD Toyota but...
Mid-40s is 10% under EPA combined. Are you really going to get worked up over it? Consumer Reports, those reckless speed demons, reported...
Sure but what percentage of Prius owners read or post on PriusChat? 0.0001? I know precisely two. Both report low-to-mid 40s in mixed use and...
I'm going to faint. John and I agree on something. My usage patterns happen to match up nearly precisely with the Volt's capabilities. The Leaf...
You give me no credit, sir. I ran the numbers with the exact same down payment, time span, and mileage. :)
It's $40k before the tax credit (which Prius owners previously enjoyed and PHV buyers will too) but we certainly have distinctly different world...
I've already documented in this very thread that a Volt leases like a Prius III w/Nav or a Prius IV so it's hardly apples-to-apples to make...
Your math is off. My electric consumption is approximately 32.3kWh/100 during 3100 miles of EV operation. My fuel mileage is worse than EPA...
The the DOT says the average was 10,380miles in 2009. *shrug* Those are my results. I drive ~15k miles/year. 12k will be in the Volt. 3k...
Put $20 of gas in it on Friday because the low fuel warning was starting to come on and annoy me. 5.7 gallons. First gas since March 15 (~150...
