I noticed that the newest car on Voltstats.net has a VIN sequence of 21213 for the 2013 model year so at least that many 2013 Volts/Amperas have...
I just checked fuelly.com for the C-Max hybrid. Of the 43 cars, 2 of them are reporting averages higher than my Volt when it operates in CS...
Okay, I suspected that's what you meant but wasn't sure. It looks like we're in agreement on preferring a full EV experience before falling back...
One reason for a difference in charging time could be the voltage level. It is usually around 120V but in some homes it could be 110 and if other...
But but but... the reason why the Volt drives like an electric car is independent of how it's gasoline hybrid powertrain works. It drives electric...
I assume you mean EREV as in first use full power EV mode until empty and then ICE rather than serial vs serial/parallel hybrid. Hybrids will...
I may have confused myself and compared a 2011 La Crosse to the 2013 La Crosse eAssist. Compare Side-by-Side
Starting in 2013, the Buick La Crosse dropped the standard 4 cylinder engine and now comes standard with eAssist with a 2.4L 4 cylinder engine....
Apparently, the good city mileage is because the Avalon is "a full two-mode hybrid". :)
Awesome. I wonder if GM will do a version of that ad with the Volt touting its European 196 mpg combined and weighted estimate? It would be more...
Here is my take..... Customers will have to balance price, EV range, hybrid mileage, space & seating, and HOV access stickers along with more...
For some reason I do remember. It seems strangely familiar. Do people need a 12 mile range? 21 mile? Plenty of people would like to have enough...
I pointed out that the Volt transmission is designed to support EREVs with 16 kWh and larger batteries. Substantially smaller batteries cannot...
I don't personally recall it being promoted for small cars and I haven't tried to validate that claim. The 2-mode design makes the most sense...
It's certainly true that Toyota has generally done a better job tuning their engine and hybrid transmission characteristics to match up well....
The guy quoted from cleanmpg.com seems to be validating the theory I posted earlier that Ford is doing charge/discharge cycles at speeds under ~63...
The computer models used for predicting short term weather are completely different from the models used for long term climate. Short term...
Trivia correction -- Toyota switched to prismatic in 2001. Only the NHW10 Prius sold in Japan between 1997 and 2000 had cylindrical cells.
One thing to keep in mind is that the Lithium battery pack is a substantial dense mass. When it gets cold soaked overnight it may still be much...
As Trollbait points out, we still need MPGe for fossil fuel engines running on CNG etc. it does make sense to compare a gasoline engine against a...
