I believe in many areas (California and Texas come to mind), wind power actually increases at night but I'm not sure if this is true generally at...
All the information is present. You just may not like the presentation. The 2012 Volt display added a kWh consumption field although it shows...
Such as what other problems? Actually, typical NiMh cells have a substantially higher self-discharge rate than typical Lithium Ion cells. You...
Based on the Japanese and European city-oriented test cycles the PiP seems to be 15-20% more efficient in city driving than the Volt if we believe...
I think progress is going to be slower than that but I hope you are right. I'll be happy to see a 40% increase in energy density by 2015 and that...
Re: Toyota specs: 11 miles EV driving range If you can do the entire trip on battery, I'm not aware of any reason why it is inherently less...
Re: Toyota specs: 11 miles EV driving range In a mild climate, I find it easy to exceed the EPA range and kWh per mile efficiency estimates by...
Those seem like reasonable possibilities. Unfortunately, we just can't know unless Toyota or the EPA releases the gasoline consumed during the...
As of the time you posted this, the comments were fair and reasonable, in my opinion. I did see the link there to your postings at...
I've been saying all along that the EPA number would likely be 10 but I wasn't assuming any gasoline use:...
Your numbers are all over the place. Charging one hour vs. 3.3 after some trip for how many miles? 26,857 kWh additional electricity versus the...
At 60 MPH you could get 42-43 miles of battery range in mild weather. At 70 MPH it would drop to around 35 miles. Realistically, most commutes...
The base model PiP does not have OnStar-like telematics which can upload and make that data available automatically. The advanced PiP model does...
I wonder how typical those speeds are for the kind of drivers who are in the market for a Volt or Prius in order to drive their daily commute --...
My utility, PG&E, averages .524 pounds CO2 per kWh and uses 5% or less of coal so it is less than half of the U.S. average grid CO2 and has very...
Because they could....because the battery pack and specific power are large enough that they don't need to use the gas engine to help out until...
Here's a link to an earlier thread where I described what is known about the cell used in the Volt....
Excellent research. Thanks! The same article also says: The NMC movement In Dr. Anderman’s lastest forecast, nickel-manganese cobalt...

Okay, I see them now. I guess I overlooked them earlier. Thanks! So why does fueleconomy.gov list the Prius as having an emissions level of...
