Separate names with a comma.
The Prius does have that feature - I think they call it. It is controllable through the Audio control screen. It is not very effective, I can...
Although it will automatically start spinning the engine, it doesn't seem to be as aggressive as when B mode is manually selected. For example...
No - the DVD for the navigation unit goes into the Navigation unit under the driver's seat. The head unit only accepts CDs. kevin
In many cases it is not even a Toyota problem - if you have Verizon they often disable the capability of phonebook transfer on the phone....
The 2004-2009 models have electrically driven A/C, it is only the water pump that is belt driven. kevin
No - even on cars with engine driven compressors there is an electrically operated clutch (that takes only a small amount of power) that controls...
I'm afraid not - the speed limit over 17 is 50. It's 55 when you get into Los Gatos or 65 when you get to Scotts Valley. I live in Los Gatos...
Isn't this the brake actuator noise that's been refered to many times? If so it is harmless....
I don't know why you call it odd - it's the same as my BMW 328 kevin
I did an experiment where I kept the throttle depressed but not to the point of activating the "force charge" point and then tried pressing...
Surely you mean that 28% of the engine TORQUE is transmitted to MG1. The amount of power will vary with MG1 speed and could be zero if MG1 is...
No - the answer is correct. Because the engine speed is almost independent of the road speed there will be some scenarios where the engine is...
But since you are only consuming the same amount of Air/Fuel as the 1.5l ICE your maximum indicated power will be about the same but with larger...
Every cruise control design I have heard of uses the speedometer take-off which is from the transmission (i.e. the driven wheels). The engine...
I don't agree that it was overgeared and I don't believe it got better FE in 4th - I had one and the gearing was about 26.5 mph/1000rpm in 5th...
Not really - don't forget that any energy you take from the battery is only a loan. Later on it will have to be paid back by the engine working...
They are reasonably close to published figures: Toyota claims a peak thermal efficiency of 38.5% for the Prius, partly due to its use of the...
Yes - I see it. During downhill runs when the battery gets to 8 greens the engine will increase from the normal 960RPM up to 2000-3000 RPM. The...
Why do you say it is the wrong answer? v/2 is the average velocity so the result is Force times the average velocity as you originally stated....
The average consumption at 60mph is more like 15HP. 10-15% is a more typical efficiency photovoltaic efficiency (because of the bandgap, ideal...
