Well you can switch tires also on Gen4, also 50 MPG rating was for gen3 with 15" wheels, 17" was not tested and it delivered at least 5% less MPG...
Wouldn't EPA account difference in tyre diameter?
Hold your horses (power) :) Facts: - Gen3 newer got anywhere near rated system power on a dyno, even in theory (based on battery current from...
Yes, if I lived in UK or Switzerland, but what is your point?
No the ones with spare tire do (higher floor - less luggage space - flat surface), both types of battery take same space under the rear seat.
I see this attempts as trying to skip one step in "greener drivetrain" evolution. VW also anaunced that they will focus on electric, but IMHO this...
I did, right wheel was a little off but otherwise OK.
They must quickly fill the VW diesel gap, people got more aware about emissions. Now bring me Europe buid plug-in ;)
Almost forgot to mention, I wore down Ecopia EP001s after 36k km, the outer edges on front tires were so much worn that I had troubles at MOT, it...
Europe got their share of Li-ion in Prius+ ;)
Li-ion has even less capacity than NiMH, the question is does it provide better fuel economy (charge/discharge losses) or longevity? I doubt it....
How realistic is this date for Auris with the new Prius drivetrain? New Auris was just relesed thi year. I read that curently in France they...
Yes but when comparing diesel and petrol you are comparing apples and oranges, diesel has more energy per gallon (~12%) and emits more CO2 per...
That is true, but even Gen3 could be driven at higher torque, but it was not. It would be possible to run Gen3 engine at 120 Nm @2,000 rpm, but it...
I added the rpm scale, because we know when old engine must run in deceleration it runs arround 1,000 rpm 96559_96554_Lower_Engine_Speed by...
Tell me how will e-four save you going downhill? I live under European Alps and am doing regular skiing trips, I had no problems in four years...
... or just buy proper winter tires instead of all-season ;)
Just a thought why they are using induction motors on the rear. If I remember correctly there may be advantages when they are free wheeling over...
The problem is that multilink rear suspension occupies more space. If they use the same cells as in normal li-ion Prius, then for 8 kWh battery...
