The Volt's fuel maintenance mode is for extreme outliers to prevent them from getting stale gas that won't burn well or gunks up their fuel lines....
You are confused. First, the Volt is an EREV (like the BMW i3) so the gas engine never comes on just because you are climbing a mountain road at...
Good question! I'm not sure and haven't really had time to look closely at these documents yet. If you compare the two graphs, it looks like the...
The 3 big Investor-Owned Utilities (IOUs) that generate 68% of California's electricity had 19.6% average renewable, according to the latest...
False. California only recognizes certain types of small hydroelectric generation as part of it's renewable energy portfolio. It does, however,...
You asserted that the definition of EREV somehow changed after the initial Volt rollout. I asked how it changed and what the new definition is....
Nope. The Volt's 1.4L engine has a compression ratio of 10.5 just like Toyota's 1NZ-FE 1.5L Otto Cycle engine used in the Yaris and various other...
I'm still interested in seeing John's answer to those two questions.
All of which is totally irrelevant to the definition of EREV in the SAE paper.
What was the process for how it changed? How is the definition now different?
There was a clear definition (the one proposed by GM engineers in an SAE technical paper) but through some undefined process it isn't clear...
Just to be clear, your scenario is charging for 12 hours at 120v and then getting in the car and flooring it for 15 minutes at 100 mph. Your...
Nope, it is broken for me. I just see text that says "IMG"for each inline image but no actual image. I also see a table of attachments at the...
Looks potentially interesting but I can't see any of the images. I've noticed that image attachments in PriusChat seem to timeout and be deleted...
Ok, thanks, I had forgotten about that. Any idea why the PiP didn't need an update? It seems like it would be more likely to push or pull the...
Is 38 kW still true after the recent firmware service campaign to avoid overheating the DC-DC boost converter? Has anyone with the new firmware...
Most full hybrid powertrains use an 'Atkinsonized' Otto Cycle gasoline engine that use modified valve timing to increase the effective expansion...
Can it be poor if it's 7% above average? :) I posted detailed data on the same topic on another thread which I don't want to repeat here. The...
I don't know. I think there have been previous reports of "low" reliability scores for some Ford vehicles because of complaints about it's Sync...
The detailed data for both Prius Plugin and Volt for the most recent full model year (2013) shows that both got all solid or partial red dots...
