Let's see. Regen is about 50% efficient Potential energy in Joules is mass*G*meters, so 1600*10*300 = 4.8 * 10^6 joules Half that is 2.4 * 10^6...
Forget about trying to optimize regen. The M/G just does not have enough of a efficiency power curve to dwell on. E.g, [IMG] See how linear the...
I recently bought a car from CA and shipped it to Colorado. The CA broker was inexperienced so I cannot say for certain things played out in the...
Even if the battery lasts, the rest of the car does not. Unfortunately the reliability of the i3 has been poor and dealership repair costs are,...
This question also came up with the regular Prius and Toyota gave the same answer of "for the expected car lifetime." Since that has turned out to...
At least 130 MPG, as much as 170 MPG I expect to get close to 90 MPG on my 90 mile commute with one charge in a Prime
Then I guess so is echo's ;-)
Is my satisfaction required for clarity ? See, you could have posted nothing, or said "thanks for clarifying my intent." Instead you climbed up a...
No, you said Your intent was to write (my italics) Yes, and if the EVSE in the shopping center (the charging point) mandates lower than 16A...
Is funner a word ? I sat in the top trim model last year and was really impressed. It felt like a modern living area. OTOH the cars are expensive...
A 16A EVSE operating at 240v would saturate the Prime charger. The EVSE would have to be limited to 12A to be under what the 3.3 kW Prime can take.
You folks are so hard on the poor dealerships. Why, I bet if you negotiate well and sweet talk the salesman you can knock 1/2 off the market...
Exactly. This is why I find the exercise amusing but irrelevant. If we lived in a society where only one car could be made and it had to be...
I estimated those trips as all oil.
I should have said oil and not fossil fuels.
A quick and dirty (and not entirely accurate) analysis of your weighted miles shows the Prime consuming about 50% more fossil fuels than a Volt....
You are fine, but you can always ask to see the title for confirmation
I wasn't implying that increased test demands are bad per se, only that the ensuing report card gets skewed until the next car revision. In...
You are presuming that Toyota's ability to sell its production is impaired by the dealer pricing strategy. That is far from obvious in a supply...
Compared to my state, the royalty apparently live in Nebraska
