Separate names with a comma.
Really? I have searched and not found it. Would it be too difficult to provide a reference? The facts continue to be that I (and many, many...
I was having so much fun, I never directly addressed this point. What is your measurement of "efficient"? What assumptions did you make? Could...
The only cold weather test of the PHV I found came up with SIX miles EV. They have a fleet of them. Why isn't there any data on cold weather...
You completely missed my point. I did not say they warmed the cabin or tested in the cold. Again, I suggested that the percentage they reduce...
Preconditioning restores all those "EV" miles to the PHEV15 because the model relies purely on ICE-derived heat thereafter.
That's a good point.
Did you read the report? So, sure, you only lose 20% of "EV range" with the PHEV15 car but only because it runs the ICE almost right away. The...
In an ICE car, as long as it can get to normal operating temperature, the only impact using the heat incurs is from the tiny bit of electricity to...
*shrug* Neither of us know. Well, I didn't intend to set you off on a rant but there is nothing about the PHV that suggests it will be immune to...
I didn't mean to suggest they did, just that whatever factor they apply against the raw EV test numbers (and the Volt breaks 50 miles, the Leaf...
I'm not sure what you mean. Are you asking if I track my other cars? Not precisely, although I do log mileage when I service them. I drive less...
I am but it's awful and I have not been consistent about anything but the weekly totals, of which I have 5. I might but I don't beat EPA in any of...
Weekly report: 172.9 miles, 54.25 kWh*. 31.4 kWh/100mi or 3.19 miles/kWh. Did not run the ICE. I have about 2 gallons left from the last...
Edmunds found the Volt 1/2 second faster through the quarter and 0.8 faster to 60 than the Leaf (it also goes 11 mph faster) although using the...
That is not correct. The main traction motor is always available. Motortrend put the car on the dyno and showed that MORE power gets to the...
My observation was 35mpg at 75-80mph cruise over a 100 mile drive in a mostly flat area, which fits cleanly with the 40mpg EPA rating. I was not...
I think you forgot to finish your post. There, fixed. My personal cost/mile hovers around 0.05 (beating the Edmunds Prius number), despite 50%...
It's a nice find and Leviton is supposed to come out with a plug-in EVSE but the 220 plug style is different in the US too. I don't understand...
Hmmm... I don't recall ever saying anything like that. I've never been interested in buying a Prius but was always impressed with the...
At the risk of distracting with data, last week: 191.3 EV miles @ 32.6 kWh/100mi (vs. 36 EPA) 12 miles on the ICE with .36 gallons (33.3MPG) I...
