Using the MG, then. That would be like any normal Prius non-plugin behavior, except it will keep going 'till completely full or you switch it off.
What do you mean? When the car is charging from an outlet, nothing happens between the battery and MGs.
I'm thinking more and more that this is the case, and that the ICE stays on and propels the car after the downhill for the exact purpose of...
A theory I have, that isn't confirmed, is that the MG (either of them in the PiP, really) gets too hot from regenerating and needs to cool down...
The PiP is programmed to switch on the ICE in various scenarios. Mine is one of these scenarios. Engineers looked at the specific scenario of...
Definitely, but if the key to running the ICE longer is to warm up the cat, why switch off right after getting it up to temperature? When the ICE...
Scenario 1: PiP is running pure EV mode. 7 miles/km/whatever left. Goes downhill for about a minute with regen strong and long enough for ICE to...
Yeah, but since the PiP can't turn off the cold ICE right away after using it to shield the battery/motors/whatever (in situations like this or...
Thank you for the thread link! Glad to know I'm not the only one trying to figure out the trigger..
All right, here's a video I took today. Outside temperature 4'C (39.2'F). ICE has been on a couple of minutes ago to heat the cabin, but now the...
Except when the PiP is cold and just fired up the ICE. .
No idea if it's "full warm" (90'C/195'F) or whatever, but it stays on for 3-4 minutes of driving before shutting off. Our differences might be due...
This means that your engine is probably at normal operating temperatures before you hit the hill anyway. The thing with a PiP is that the gasoline...
Can you descend for that long without engaging the ICE due to "hard charging"? I have a hill close by (not the one I live on) that's steep enough...
I live at the top of a hill and the charger timer (and my life for that matter) isn't predictable enough to allow me to leave the top percentages...
Sorry, bisco, just now saw you were a PiP owner. This app doesn't show avatars or user info in-thread. .
It's not just a normal Prius with a larger battery pack. It's much stronger in EV mode than a standard Prius. The PiP does have pure EV mode for...
Yeah, except in a PiP, when the engine is engaged, even for the gas-less spinning to engine brake, it doesn't die and reengage pure EV mode again...
The Prime BETTER make sure to use the FRICTION BRAKES when the battery is completely full at the top of a hill. The PiP engages the gasoline...
Question: If I were to invest in an electric wall-powered cabin heater from DEFA to compliment my previously installed block heater, I have the...
