Wow, $64. That's what it cost to fill my Highlander the week before I traded it in on a Prius. Now I by a few gallons once a month if I need it or...
Complete stops may save you more money than all the good mileage. Cops always check the speed of a red Porsche and the non-complete stop of Prius.
What's the big deal about "push button starting" or stopping? My 49 Ford had push button starting.
Two reasons: 1) Maximizing EV use is less efficient because the ICE has to recharge the battery and the conversion losses in the charge and...
The HSI always reads high, usually 2 to 3 mpg. Use the trip indicator to compare for each fill-up.
The spreadsheet says the total battery amps won't work in the PiP :(:( I find the A/C power goes up and down in significant steps with the...
If price/savings are important buy a nice $5000 used Honda Civic. Its probably good for 50K miles at a reasonable mpg. The price of my Prius was...
Since all it does is change the sensitivity of the accelerator pedal I would expect it would improve mileage for some and make mileage worse for...
California Hybrid Battery Warranty, 120 months / 150,000 miles as stated in the Toyota Warranty and Maintenance Guide.
Oh, like the friction brake says -.02 when it is off. Thanks for the info!!
Thanks for all the information. I have a Scan Gauge but hadn't noticed those measurements are available. Does the AC compressor just run slower...
Do you have any reference for this? When I run the AC in park for long periods it makes very little difference in the SOC or EV miles in my PiP.
I'm not sure about that. On another thread the conclusion was windows open at high speed causes more mpg loss than running the fan due to air...
I thought that one is supposed to avoid EV (in a standard Prius) for best mileage. The comments are usually "while it may be counter intuitive,...
You are correct. Sorry for the confusion.
I'm simply saying that 50% EV in the PiP is not wildly unlikely. Since I don't have a Volt I can't "list your electric % in the Volt". And I have...
Its "wildly" accurate for me. It depends on how you use the car. I've had my PiP for 5 months, driven 4000 miles and my measured EV is 54%. Most...
Obviously the Prius and Prius Plug-in do a great job with respect to CO2 emissions. I don't believe a calculation that makes a few percent change...
62mph in the city? Probably in a 40 mph zone.
I didn't notice that, after all its on the 1st page. :) However, they call a Chevy Volt a Plug-in and it goes 40 miles on a charge. If they used...
