November 16, 2011 LOS ANGELES (GM) – A Low Emissions Package that qualifies the 2012 Chevrolet Volt electric car to access California’s High...
The 13-15 mile electric range for the PiP is either a result of blending in some gasoline power or careful driving under favorable conditions....
How will the production PiP address the concerns you are expressing here? The PiP battery pack is presumably more prone to damage in a rear...
That document is for training emergency responders. The Volt service manual documents what should be done to inspect the high voltage systems...
.... 3 weeks after the test car was totaled in the crash test. Subsequent crash tests did not recreate the fire. The normal post-crash safety...
I haven't seen the empirical data to support such a claim. The only reason you can attempt to make that claim is because the carbon-intensity of...
Yes and no. Yes, I agree that the point of having a battery is to use it and GM's 65% SoC range cap seems like a reasonable limit. I don't see...
Yes.
Just to point out the obvious..... Toyota will face the same challenges with the PiP and battery studies indicate that the smaller pack size used...
I don't have time to download that paper right now, but "constant pressure structure" sounds like a bunch of prismatic cells together in a battery...
I drove a 2004 Prius for 125,000 miles over the same driving pattern prior to getting the Volt and averaged around 46. My driving segments tend to...
Uh oh, another poor choice of words! :-)
I never meant to hint that the CT 200h was unsafe. It's not at all unsafe. However, it does score as less safe than the Volt which was given a...
Yes, the Volt has knee airbags for both driver and front passenger.
The Volt scored 44 for safety which puts it in the top 7% of all the cars, SUVs and trucks rated by informedforlife.org. The CT 200h scored 65...
Note, that I'm not making the claim that the CT 200h is a mediocre car. I'm saying that the corollary of my comparison between it and the Volt...
Both cars make compromises (like all cars). Some compromises suit some drivers better than others. The PiP does not make superior compromises for...
The link I gave is a superset of all of the current generation Panasonic Lithium cylindrical cells. It includes the 2 page data sheet that you...
Even lithium batteries are happiest operating in a similar narrow range of charge for maximum cycle life. The paper I mentioned earlier is...
Here are the data sheets for Panasonic's current generation cylindrical lithium cells:...
