Separate names with a comma.
That suggest 5.4 kWh useable in EV mode(s), and 216 Wh/mile for a 25 mile range. If my arithmetic is correct it matches the 133 MPGe rating...
That will vary by SOC and your route and driving behavior. I'd like to hear specifics too. E.g., in a regular Prius the amount of battery...
The confusion is understandable. Toyota has my order, so I don't feel too bad in getting ahead of myself a bit.

Me ? Nope -- my Prime will not arrive until ~ February. That is why I asked ;-)
True, while quarterly payments only let you knock off $1125 at a time through the year. So I estimate you will pay carrying charges on ~ $2800 for...

What was the engine size in the Gen1 Volt ? Smaller than a 1.8L Prius IIRC

Does your car have a carb ? I calculated the vertical rise energy requirement: 60 mph = 29 m/s -- about 1.88 m/s rise at 7% Joules = 1.88 * 9.8 *...
It takes about 30 kW to move a 1600 kg car up a 7% grade at 60 mph (27 m/s). If you mishandle the car and force battery recharging during the...
