With BEVs, PHEVs, Fuel cell vehicles, Diesels etc. we are well past the point where MPG is the be-all-end-all of efficiency measurements....
You mean "Thanks to Toyota's thoughtful engineers, no damage", right? :)
Are you factoring in the higher energy content of diesel? This is important as it either costs more money, or consumes more crude oil, or both....
That is the theoretical halfway point. That is, since power required goes up as the cube of the velocity, if the car is equally efficient at all...
It wouldn't actually be too hard. The only thing we can change to double the Highway MPG (for example) and meet your criteria, would be the...
I find it amusing that we have crossed the line from, 'the Prius is strange I don't want a car that doesn't look like other cars' to 'the Prius is...
From this we can clearly conclude that all driving is ridiculous by your measure. And since you are unable to put the accelerator at a given spot...
SO anything my grandmother wouldn't do is ridiculous? Well, for one thing, she never drove over 50 mph.
What are "riduclous hypermiling techniques"?
Not quite. Since the end points are the same, all that they do is MOVE the sensitive section of the pedal response. In ECO mode, the sensitivity...
And when it would otherwise have been cubed. Same thing.
You are not even paying off the car's embodied energy in that time frame. So you are increasing oil use.
If you buy a new car every three years, you are already in the realm of barking mad financial sense. Which car you buy is of little consequence...
Or Maine.
Name one. I use Windows at the moment, since it was provided by my work, but I frequently try to do something which would be easy on my old Mac,...
Pure gas has 3.3% more energy than E-10. If you are seeing a different number, you are seeing something other than that. Two tankfuls just isn't...
Where do they find a oxygen free atmosphere to race in?
Here is the EPA label (for the Leaf), it has most of the things people seem to want. [IMG]
Is a 2.0L turbo going to get better gas mileage than the 1.4L? If not, this sounds like a step in the wrong direction. I haven't seen anyone...
I see. I would say rather that it isn't measuring what you are interested in. It would be nice if we had a metric of environmental harm, that we...
