john1701a: From your signature you are (until now) at 66.6 MPG(e) composite. The "EPA average" Volt driver is at 60 MPG(e) composite.
Now let's see: 809 kWh from wall (your signature) @ .308 kWh/mile that's 2627 EV miles. 2740 miles (signature) minus 2627 equals 113 gas miles,...
Well, Satoshi Ogiso had no reservations... 38 kWh was never confirmed for the US version. Wow, 38kW regen! you really need a steep hill and high...
Did you read the original post? From where did you take the 9C figure?
You would have regened more by not shifting to B. B is converting some of the kinetic energy into heat (waste) in the ICE (like engine brake).
With Prius HEV, the justification of using B mode is remote. With the Prius PHV it is almost never...
ukr2: Assume trip B is lifetime. Are you going to keep it this way? (i.e. no reset?). Very detailed and informative sheet, thanks.
The beauty of HSD: it gives an extra degree of freedom.
If I remember correctly, your lifetime includes one long trip in HV (picking-up the car with zero EV miles). With your driving patterns I can see...
Corolla is best selling car of all times: 37.5M, Ford F Series no. 2: 35M, VW Golf 3: 27.5M, VW Beetle 4: 21.5M, Ford Escort 5: 20M
In my CTh, EV light is off when no petrol and above 72 km/hr (i.e. engine spin), coming back on when slowing to below 72 km/hr (i.e. engine rests).
You misunderstood me, sorry for not being clearer. in 55+ mph I meant 55 or 60 or 70 or whatever speed you like to drive (and traffic permits)....
Well, you can enjoy and worry. Driving at constant 55+ mph on HV, saving the EV miles for city drive - where it is most needed, is clever and...
All should be replaced with altogether...
That one is easy, just tax the gasoline. Are you Americans really prepared for this?
Yes. And cost to own must include anticipated resale value and/or battery replacement.
So, in your opinion it will sell less than the Volt??
Well, 21-23 is your estimation, mine is 35%, time will tell. My problem with percent increase: Ultimate UF is 100% (or very close to it), it is...
35% EV is my expectation for the average Prius PHV driver,as compared to 67% for the Volt (EPA even says 64% for the Volt). 55% EV for the Prius...
With the full sticker data, we can now look at the total GHG emissions of the Pruis PHV as a function of local grid GHG intensity and as compared...
