Not for wall charging. Everything else. :). Radar cruise, EV mode in bumper to bumper traffic to avoid idling an ICE endlessly. EV mode for...
really, my impression of EE fundamentals would have me believe that even small increase in wire temp and related increase in resistance are very...
thats what I'm thinking, but does EVSE need to be plugged into 110V first. I guess normal household 110V could be plugged in first then reach...
I notice Toyota, and I assume other EVs, say to plug in the cable to 110v first, then plug into car. I assume that powers up the cable's safety...
Yeah, I guess, but just seems like one of the times when a little extra in the initial design would been real easy, and now we've got a much less...
pretty sure the EE Dept at Toyota could build a cheap, reliable fail safe that first looks at what current has just plugged in and go "Whoa!" and...
They do mention "cable handling system" which I assume is vacuum-cleaner style self reeling. (C) Overall Cord and Cable Length. The overall...
To me, having to mess with an external, rather awkward cord IS "broke", just like when my old car's alternator when out and I had to hook it up to...
I'm kinda wondering what would be required to mod a Prime so that the EVSE cord is stuffed into the car and "always plugged in" or if required...
Car wont know what gauge cord, but thats basically same as Owner's Manual saying "Don't plug into sketchy house wiring" or "Check condition and...
IIRC the lock feature was only for higher end Primes above the base LE. But as a practical anti-theft, anti-DAMAGE matter I'd want it to...
nice to know they can be had for less than $400 and Dealer, but if they are $148 and work on lots of other cars it still seems like theft risk....
Or at most have something about 1/2 the size of a gas cap (because maybe there is big legal/safety reason not to have exposed contacts to plug...
no, I think like others have said its a Batt Production issue, and entire automotive press and likely buyers all went gaga moment Toyota announced...
What exactly are you calling "manufacturer credits"? Are MCs what these people are calling "tax credits"manufacturer credits EV at DuckDuckGo, or...
good to hear Gas Tank issue is now a non-issue. Tesla owners buying Rav4 Primes, for pretty much same common sense reasons I'd take a Toyota over...
Now I'm really confused. How was a car's sensor stopping the gas station's pump from filling the tank all the way??? Is "sensor" some vent...
IIRC Toyota was famously losing over a $1000 per Prius sold for several years and that was considered one of the all time great business...
I'd rather have a Toyota, regardless. Tesla isn't a real car company and uses a mish-mash of parts from real car companies to put out a specially...
