I don't think the Prius Plug-in battery is a "tried and true design", at least not in the real world yet. The Toyota hybrids use NiMH batteries...
I don't think EV vs HV matters, only whether it is in ECO, Normal, or PWR modes. All it does is change the throttle response. For example, if...
Sort of. If you have a SafetyConnect subscription, then you can use the hybrid apps (which require a cellular connection to the Prius Plug-in...
Are you sure about this and how do you know the ICE isn't being used? My understanding is that the ICE isn't really "run"/burning gas when it is...
This sounds like a very bad assumption. Many people with short commutes still want a longer range for the weekend or for road trips. While two...
I don't think it would leave the battery slightly uncharged as a buffer. I think the EV range drops b/c it is counting all the electricity it...
HV mode will only let you use a small range of the battery making it behave like the regular hybrid Prius. This means at some point, it won't let...
I wasn't arguing a point, just pointing out a factual error. The battery charger doesn't block the spare tire well, it resides in the spare tire...
No, b/c coasting means no braking, regenerative or otherwise.
In the case of a Prius Plug-in, it isn't strictly losing benefit. It's trading one thing for another. Prius Plug-in owners prefer having a...
In the Gen 2, the phone was disabled when in motion as well (the navigation was too, but for some there was a diagnostic screen override). I've...
Maybe the Volt owner is doing what you are doing, waiting for the carpool sticker.
I don't think it works that way. There is a fixed amount of kinetic energy when the Prius is moving at a certain speed (neglecting differences in...
I believe those "people" were talking about the Prius Liftback, not the Plug-in. They were going without a spare by choice. I believe the...
There is a jack kit. See pg. 448 of the Owner's Manual.
Update: I had to take apart the P4460 and use pliers to widen the ground connector end so that the EVSE ground pin would fit in and it is still...
I recall reading an article that the Volt could have achieved 50MPG with a larger engine, but the smaller 1.4L engine was chosen instead. The...
Maybe they would be more open to a less expensive option than replacing the old EVSEs with new ones? Since power is already wired to the EVSEs,...
I believe so. The Owner's Manual doesn't quite say so explicitly, but on pg. 87 it says:
