Boeing was using the least stable cathode chemistry, Lithium Cobalt, because their design got locked in a long time ago before the safer variants...
Not that it matters much, but the 51-52 miles of Ampera/Volt NEDC range is for the 2011 model year. For 2013-2014 it is probably 55-56 but I...
In the summary of their methods for this latest annual report they say: I parse that as saying the non-plug Prius is only accounted for the...
This thread is about the ELR but I see people quoting specs from the 2011 Volt. The drive unit and battery are either identical or very similar...
Yes, these numbers are misleading for most people even if you ignore the savings from maintenance and fueling costs. For example, about 1/3 of...
PG&E grid power in Northern California is 19% renewable and that doesn't include the large hydro power and nuclear sources that combine to supply...
Voltstats.net MPGe numbers are useless because OnStar's public API won't give them kWh data (I don't understand why) so they substitute the EPA...
That's a bit misleading since my car was probably the 3rd car delivered in Northern California and it was delivered on Dec. 21 which is a few days...
Everyone here seems to be assuming that a Prius 4wd or AWD would be mechanical. It seems far more likely that they would follow the pattern of the...
Yes, someone said that here but it doesn't make sense to me. It is unlikely to be a limitation imposed by ChargePoint. ChargePoint actually...
The lesson I draw is that resources given away free are poorly allocated or misused. Towns without water meters have homes that waste a lot of...
Today I charged at a free city parking garage with a free charging station. In the space next to me there was a LEAF that had been plugged in for...
ChargePoint doesn't set the rates (unlike Blink). The owner of the charging station sets a price using a billing model supported by ChargePoint's...
Less than a minute.
They actually did achieve 40 miles on 8 kWh (5 miles per kWh from the battery) if you use the 2011 Volt NEDC rating (52 miles using 10.4 kWh from...
Interesting! Thanks for the link. Like I said, achieving those goals requires bringing together major improvements to the cathode, anode and...
Generally, in-car energy usage displays do not include the 12-25% overhead of charging from the wall socket. Your Energi display that shows 93...
I can certainly agree with that.
A 2006 Highlander AWD hybrid was $40,000 in today's terms ($34,430 in 2006 dollars). That's $5,000 more than a Volt before any tax credits or...
Where did I pretend "GM had neither the knowledge nor the experience already."? We have discussed this before in great detail. Like I mentioned...
