Separate names with a comma.
If you look back, I originally said "80 miles/hour" which is a reasonable speed on the interstate. The smaller an engine is, the faster it has to...
The engine is likely charging the battery when you're not even aware of it. As John1701 said: During low-power demand, excess engine power will...
In my view cars are an appliance, but most people view them as fashion. For example they'd rather drive a sleek-looking modern Civic or Corolla,...
(sigh). The battery is NOT charged almost entirely from braking. The reality is that braking recovers very little energy. 1 maybe 2 bars per...
Wrong, wrong, wrong. If I'm driving down the highway at a steady speed, and the battery gradually climbs from 1/2 to near-full, I know it did not...
Please quote where I said "Honda and Toyota hybrids are made the same as Fisker". I never said that. Here's what I actually said: "If I'm...
Please show me where I made that claim. Go on. Quote me where I said that.
15%??? How about just 6% sales tax and then never tax the cars again. Just like any other appliance. You buy a refrigerator or TV or...
Well then it appears both Honda and Toyota did make an "uneconomical hybrid vehicle", because that's how both my Civic and my Prius operate. When...
Americans don't normally think of a subway as a "train" which is why I did not include it. But to answer your question: The light rail & regular...
Let me try a different tactic: Your sentence is wrong. Very little comes from regen braking. That is true of my Civic Hybrid and my observation...
Maryland charged me No sales tax when I bought my first hybrid (2002 insight). Perhaps that was phased-out. Doesn't Virginia also charge property...
It's produced from imported fossil fuels, so No it isn't better than a EV car with a gasoline engine backup (like the Volt or PiP). There is no...
Well the UK is messed-up then. In the US all the rail companies cooperated & set a standard so they could share the rails. (Same way they met...
That makes about as much sense as buying an LCD TV for $5000, selling it in a few years as "used" for $2000, and then buying another LCD TV for...
The non-hybrids also had their MPG reduced, so Ford's poor testing procedures effected regular gasoline cars too. Yeah the smaller engines eat...
Well in any case... greenercars.org lists the Jetta Wagon TDI as 45% greenscore versus 38% for the Tesla EV, and that supports your claim that...
If that were the case my Prius would be constantly empty, since I rarely brake. The fact is: I've seen the battery gradually fill itself, even...
I hope you're right but I'm skeptical. A solar panel doesn't produce that much energy.
Electrified railroads don't seem to have this problem.
