The Ford Fiesta I rented got over 60 mpg on the interstate. I expect the new 1.0 engine would do even better. (Plus its 14,000 price tag was...
LA Times was not trying very hard. But the NY Times picked up the story: Toyota was involved a scandal that spanned ten years (circa 1998 to...
I found NO car reviews from 2003 (when the 04 Prius released) or earlier that told buyers it would cost $10,000 to replace the battery. Sounds...
I used EV mode to drain a Prius empty (and them the engine kicked on). What if I had turned-off the car? Would that leave the battery sitting at...
If the problem is deep-discharge of the NiMH, switching to lithium won't fix the problem (especially since Li is even more sensitive). Also IMA...
I didn't say anything requiring citation, except my reference to Rush Limbaugh saying in 2002 that hybrids only go 65. (I don't know how to cite...
No not a government worker, but my 2001 estimate of $4000 for my Honda was only 33% off the mark. That's not bad for looking over a decade into...

You kinda missed my point: I don't see any evidence that an Atkinson engine is more efficient than the Otto engine. Sure the A has a longer...
Yeah well..... Honda is junk ;) Edit: The reason I first chose Honda way back in 2001 was because the car can still run with a worn-out battery....
Wow..... discontinued their CRZ and Insight. Now their EV. Who on earth is running Honda these days? Maybe he's an oil exec. ;) As for...
