Separate names with a comma.
As best I can tell from his ultra dry sense of humor, he's trying to make the point that he thinks MPGe is a poor metric because it ignores the...
You're doing it wrong.
I wonder if Ford is cycling the engine like Chevy sometimes does in the Volt? When the Volt is driven under 65 mph or so on flat highway it can...
You still think the MPGe of the Rav4 plus trailer is 78.6 even though you say it goes 27 miles while consuming 1 gallon of gas? The definition of...
Sure, the Volt has a wider range of emissions behavior. I can be better or worse by a significant amount than a Prius or PiP depending on mileage...
Then how do you explain the fact that I pay an effective cost of 8-12 cents per kWh to PG&E (covers most of Northern California) when I charge my...
Sure, he should have been quoting combined mileage for the Volt just like he did for PiP and Energi so as to be at least minimally consistent. I...
And at some point, highway mileage becomes predominant with larger EV range from the battery. This is especially true if you have a Hold or HV...
FYI, updated my earlier highway MPGe estimate for the old Rav4 EV plus trailer. See: Toyota November Tops US Electric Plug In Vehicle Sales For...
I figure the combo old Rav4 plus trailer is closer to 40 MPGe than 80. What are your assumptions? The old Rav4 got 54 kWh / 100 miles on the...
Upon further reflection, I think I probably saw a Focus EV.
Well, let's get the numbers right. The Volt has a combined mileage estimate of 37 mpg. The nearest automatic compact or larger GM car is the Chevy...
The two major brands are ChargePoint and Blink. They have separate signups and RFID cards and I have both. There are also some smaller ones and...
Does Toyota sell a PHEV with 40-50 mile range? No, it doesn't. Neither does Ford. I see no evidence that Toyota would sell a 40-50 mile EV range...
I certainly can't be accused of not reporting my kWh efficiency... :) I'm doing 27 kWh /100 miles over the last 30 days but 25 kWh more typically....
I may have spotted my first C-MAX Energi while driving down a local city street in San Jose, CA. It was white and I saw the charging port near the...
I've been driving a Prius as long as you (well, one week less) and lived through all the Prius bashing in the automotive press. I don't recall it...
I just looked up my last 30 day average. I did 27 kWh/100 miles for EV and about 47-48 mpg on gas (around 1,200 miles on 25 gallons). I did a...
Car marketing is what it is. Toyota marketed 15 miles of EV range for the PiP and Nissan said 100 miles for the LEAF. Both are possible but most...
[Apologies in advance for the long answer] Actually, I am driving it like the EPA cycle...the actual EPA cycle results are derated by around 30%...
