I'm guessing he means not plugging in
This is what I thought. I wonder if that makes the differences in weather less pronounced.
Doesn't the volt use the engine to charge the battery mostly? Or does it also drive the car in most cases like in the Prius? Maybe the engine load...
I would suspect that the warming up engine charges the battery while idling to warm up with the battery driving. It probably doesn't switch over...
If that's the only questionable thing the footage caught, I'd count yourself as one of the lucky ones;)
I don't have a prime, so I can't be sure, but I'm guessing that the car runs off the traction battery while the engine warms up. It most likely...
Yeah I think gen 2 is in color
On the upper dash, with the speedometer, on my 2012 the battery icon is the same monochrome green color as everything else, no matter the charge...
Sent you the pics in a PM
Yeah I'll try to take some pics and send them tomorrow. I had it professionally installed and they did a really good job
I have the kicker, it fits very well under the seat. There is a ton of room under there in the 2012-2015 Prius. The only beef I have with it is...
Good job! Enjoyed your story, kind of cool to keep the running journal like that. It is hard to beat these cars for commuting to/from work. Mine...
We have 3 kids (soon to be 4!) and I drive a 2012 Prius, which should be basically the same as the 2010. I will say that putting all 3 in the back...
BEV: I can't do this, I need an ICE because of range anxiety. PHEV: I don't like having an ICE, it's double maintenance with the battery system.
Yeah with my gen 3 if I wind up with it still in warm up mode I don't turn it off until the engine shuts down. That seems to prevent the cold...
Does the prime do the cold start thing like gen 3 or was that fixed with gen 4?
The OP is from 2006....I wonder if it did happen
Try this thread: Visual Tables of Gen4 Package Combinations | PriusChat I don't think there are any differences for 2018, and in 2017 TSS-P is...
16 mile avaerage? Were they testing on a race track? In Alaska? In winter?
I suspect this is why the Prius tries to keep engine RPM low during the warmup phase, running mostly off the battery even though the engine is...
