Among Japanese enthusiasts, we see 1% per 1C(1.8F) drop without using climate control. So, we see 10% drop from 20C(68F) to 10C(50F). If you turn...
It's only 1300 rpm during the initial Stage-1a. Ken@Japan
Below 86F ambient temperature, you are a good candidate about a grill blocker....
FYI, There was the SSC 40A on the Gen2 2004 Prius. http://priuschat.com/forums/gen-ii-prius-main-forum/382-recall.html#post2442 Ken@Japan

Prius engine is not so weak unless you do auto racing or driving over 100 mph long time on autobahn. If you really want to know the 4000 rpm...
No. The HSI is not a tachometer. The same HSI level does not always show the same rpm. There are a lot of variables, such as speed, acceleration,...
A typical seat warmer uses 12V power, and the seat warmer is more efficient than climate control on a short trip. If I were a peeson driving 3...
A typical plug-in Prius runs 250Wh/mile, so the single 50Wh leaf car means you can drive Prius in EV mode for 0.2 mile. Ken@Japan

My math for the best balance is... Gen2: 50kW(MG2) - 25kW(battery) = 25kw(MG1) Gen3: 60kW(MG2) - 27kW(battery) = 33kW(MG1) Ken@Japan
No. I agree with drees. The plug-in's concept is trying to drive as long as possible EV range (depletion mode), then it is going to be like a...
