Separate names with a comma.
Agreed. I am not sure why people are surprised that FCV's are also hybrids. It only makes sense. Fuel Cells produce electric output, no...
Yes I see the disconnect, but IMHO Bio-Diesel had their chance. :sleep: They obviously weren't ready to take on Petro-Diesel priced at $4, so now...
Ummm.........I'm pretty sure the mpg claims of the diesel-hybrid Range Rover are spot-on. No, I don't think Range Rover engineers will be...
The TSI is also has .6 fewer liters of displacement. I'm not sure how much difference it makes, but I think the most apples-to-apples comparison...
It absolutely is. Every $ spent has an opportunity cost. Every dollar spent on TDI/Bluetec is one less dollar spent on, and driving cost and...
Acchh........you are making my head hurt. :confused: The DD is NOT FUD..........your failure to understand it and accuse it of being...
I knew you weren't switching terms; but I am still having a hard time understanding how the use of natural gas and electricity at refineries plays...
And of course you have sources and can cite how a midsize diesel car can possibly get anywhere close to 60mpg in the city (which it would need to...
We must be careful not to interchange the "energy footprint" of something with its "oil footprint". I often read a similar meme on Peak Oil...
Here are the only 2 metrics you need to know w./ respect to what the Prius can/will do: First, diesel is, and will continue to be -due to global...
Agreed. The only issue is whether we will be using batteries (with swap or supercharging) instead of hydrogen for our high-load/long-distance...
But this merely re-inforces the idea that we are going to be wedded to the ICE for a very, very long time to come. Might as well focus on PHEVs,...
The swap itself is: [media] Something tells me this wouldn't vary based on the city the swap station is located in. Traffic and getting there...
Ya, if its a business trip, timing is key. A pleasure trip would be another question altogether. On a side note, I wonder if Tesla will start...
Location is key, not doubt. 90 seconds on way into LA, 90 seconds on way out of LA = not too bad
IIRC, they get max CARB credit just for having the ability to "fast-refuel". Thus, Model S was designed from outset with battery swap, but...
I posit the person JMD knows -with both a Volt & Tesla- wasn't doing their math homework. You'd be crazy not to pick up a FREE charge at the Tesla...
Of course, enjoying the following while getting a 45 minute supercharge should hardly inconvenience anyone. This is a very REAL station ;) Oh,...
A 90-second battery swap 'creates a delay in the day'??????? Must be a very busy person :unsure:
Absolutely. I calculate CT200h is cheaper to operate than Volt only on trips over 200 miles, which are rare. Here are my assumptions: $1 for...
