Separate names with a comma.
On the third hand, a hybrid 6.0L V8 Chevy Silverado saves as much gas per year versus a standard 4.0L V6 Toyota Tundra as a 50 mpg Prius Liftback...
In a non-plug Prius in HV mode the small usable 300-500 Wh battery buffer is replenished from the gas engine. In the PiP, I assume STEALTH will...
I'm still a little confused. When you have a charged up battery, does HV mode ever act like a "hold" mode where it retains the battery for...
There is one baseline. They count the number of kWh at Peak, Partial Peak, and Off Peak and then use the ratio of usage between them across each...

Most of the asterisks are because we did not bother to prove that the charge cords that came with the car itself could charge that same car. We...
I agree that it is better to be more conservative and go with 14 gauge wires (as in the latest Volt charge cord). As a practical matter, however,...
This can't happen with the newer plugin cars -- they won't switch out of "Park" if the J1772 cord is still plugged into the car.
On the other hand, as far as I know neither Nissan or Toyota have 3rd party sites which can download and display LEAF or PiP (advanced trim model)...

OnStar captures kWh charging data and uses it to generate the monthly status reports they send by email to Volt owners. My impression is that some...
I ran out of time to post the full matrix of testing results tonight so I'll do that in the morning. But, I never said there was a problem with...
Okay, our testing was completed during the lunch break. There is good news and bad news. The bad news is that we confirmed that the first 2...
I completely agree. Although, to be fair, the PiP just came out so it is hard to make arrangements to drive one for several days. I rented a...
You are comparing PiPs and Volts driving under different road and climate conditions. How many PiP owners are getting a solid average 14 miles on...
The U.S. federal tax credit is variable based on the battery pack size. The Prius Plugin only qualifies for about $2,500 of tax credit whereas...
Devprius and I plan to do a 120V charge cord interop test today.
Those could be good reasons. Not a good reason: battery completes charging sooner simply because it has less storage capacity
I agree with your basic point, but just wanted to make it clear that the AER assumptions understate the Volt's AER in comparison with the PiP. The...
Plug a PiP and a Volt with empty battery packs into a 120V charge cord until the PiP finishes charging. Unplug both. Drive both side by side under...
