While I am not one of them, there are a whole lot of 'average joes' out there buying in the $40,000 price range. I am not saying they SHOULD be...
More power without increasing (by as much) the size and weight of the electric motors. It is harder to make electronics do the 650v and they may...
I am betting that the Volt will be $40,000 - $7500 = $32500. Even with stricter lending requirements car loans will be available to those who...
The utility should make 10-20% gross profit on your electricity for moving it. If they sell it for 12 cents Kwh then you get about 10 cents and...
The kill switch is already there. It's called the power button. Press it for three seconds and the car will turn off.
Unfortunately it is true. There are lawsuits: Owners' class-action lawsuits could cost Toyota $3B - Salt Lake Tribune It is also true, there is...
Two cars that are not out, kinda hard to say which one beats! I love the Prius, and I am waiting to hear about its plug in though the range of...
Well lets say I attach a lead weight to the back of the car...... 25mpg? There is not point in your math if you assume 25mpg for the Volt....
The only reason for an ICE switch would be performance. There is no need to 'save' battery capacity as all you are doing is using gas up front...

Toyota took back many rav ev's As well making the supply very small. The evil battery patent expires in parts but by the end of this year most...
I have to admit, it looks nice in the pics. I would not have imagined that as most kits I have seen were tacky and cheap looking. I do like the...
In 1997 neither did mine. I never got one after that one. No discount no sale. I paid $400 as well, again in 1997
Looks great! Can you show a picture a little further away so we can see how it looks with more of the car showing?
Hmmmm. I was given a free rental of a Chevy Silverado 4x4 extended bed during a car repair. The mpg was so bad I turned it in for another free...
In many ways I agree with you, I am just more optimistic. I think 25mpg for CS mode is out of the question. 38mpg is the low mark, for a test...
Well, you might want a 30 mile EV with a dead-weight engine because by your own admission you would use gas only once a month. You would only...
No, but I am saying when you brake you are putting power back into the pack. This increases city mpg a good deal and very slightly on the...
Wait a second there. Increasing engine size alone does not increase efficiency. It helped on the highway mpg of the Prius because the 1.5l...
