On my Gen3, I use EV mode (and B mode for that matter) many times in situations that would have the computer turning the ICE on and off for...
I found these two posts fascinating when put together. So in the far north, the block heater is raising the coolant temp up to about 0C / 32F,...
Here in MA, this very morning, I saw a Prius (not mine) pass a slow dump truck by pulling into the oncoming lane while crossing an intersection...
Ah yes, I see it now, but only after clicking through to the YouTube website to see the description, then clicking "more" to show the full...
I freely admit I haven't had a chance to read the entire PriusChat website :-)
I'm 99% certain they give off something, though it may not be hydrogen. The reason is coulombic efficiency. If you put 1 amp-hour (ah) into a...
