Separate names with a comma.
Would have helped if they had hinged the solar panel, so it could be tilted to the best angle for max. power! But given its low power output, I...
Thanks for all the comments everyone. Given what appears to be the plusher seating provided in the G3 Prius it would seem that higher tire...
Anyone at the Detroit show note the OE tire manufacturer and if the recommended pressures are still 35F/33R psi? Also did anyone engage the Chief...
Yes that makes sense, in a torsional way, simply due to the rotational inertia of the pulley. There's probably a host of other practical reasons too.
So if the car is powered off, the doors are all closed, but the drivers side window is down, and I reach in and turn the lights on, they do not...
Excellent pictures, Rick. I did note that Toyota retained the crankshaft belt pulley on the G3, even though it no longer drives any belt. Any...
Are you telling me Rick that on my 2008/pkg 2 Prius, if I open the driver's door then switch on the headlights, then close the door, the lights...
And CG location too?!! Can't let those front wheels float clear of the ground you know, like the "matatus" do in Kenya. But that's a whole...
Also agree with Pat. In a smoke tunnel you could probably see 2 rolling vortices coming off the right and left sides of the car, representing the...
Notice they say nothing about it's range. Why? Because 80HP at each of the eight wheels that monster will suck electrical energy so fast out of...
Directly, that is. We have been doing it indirectly since the advent of the hydrocarbon-burning era, albeit with of time-shift of several 100...
I too am impressed by these new safety features that assist the driver. With respect to the ACC, does anyone know if the system retains the set...
Tom, you are a terrible person ... but I love your sardonic sense of humor!!
Design laziness in Detroit and a mind-set that stems from the era of plentiful 30 cent/gallon gas, when vehicle weight or engine efficiency was...
What are "Active front headrests" exactly? Headrests that biff the driver in the back of the head if his attention wanders?
Which prompts the question "which version of the 2010 Prius" is only 100 lbs heavier than the 2G model? The optional moon roof and solar panel...
Absolutely. Let the naysayers and their ignorant running dogs carp and criticize. Remember how the original VW was laughed at by Detroit and...
Tinting the windows is far more effective and a lot cheaper too. Also don't forget that the solar panel will get hot in the sun too, which...
While I wouldn't call it ridiculous, I do think on reflection it is more of a marketing gimmick than a practical option, mainly due to it's low...
So it seems to me that the final drive system is still two-stage, as it is in the current 2004 - 2008 Prius; does that mean that the silent chain...
