Separate names with a comma.
At least in my climate of 37F+ winter temperatures and with a semi-heated garage (55F+), I found it pretty easy to stay in EV and avoid starting...
The Volt will clearly consume less gasoline. I used around 4.6-4.8 gallons (from memory) in the PiP for 4 complete commute days. I will probably...
Morning update: Exact same commute as yesterday. end of story.
Ok, but I was only half wrong. Any startup of the gas engine is very likely (almost certain?) to result in losing the "999" mpg level. And you are...
Evening Volt update: I was able to get about 26 miles of estimated range (kWh TBD) in a single 120V charging session at work I started after...
I think the EPA test just triggers the gas engine to start about 6 miles into the test but the engine turns back off soon afterwards and most or...
You would probably get upper-20's in an Energi or roughly twice what you get in the PiP. In the Volt you would get close to 4x what you get in the...
You are in EV-only mode as long as the green EV light on the left side of the main driver display is lit. If you are seeing less than 999 mpg for...
The temperature was 37F degrees again when I arrived at work on battery power. This time traffic was clear although I traveled behind a truck (not...
Unexpectedly good results continued: I managed to charge at 120V this morning at work and then grabbed some additional time at 240V on an AVCon...
My assumption is that the battery just holds 500-750 Wh less due to chemistry and cold temperatures rather than the difference representing...
That could be part of it. I did a full recharge overnight (early Saturday morning) and then drove 6-8 miles on Saturday and didn't plug it back in...
Quick update: I downloaded the mileage and EV vs. gas usage records of the Volt from OnStar but had some problems with downloading the charging...
I haven't noticed anything yet... :)
I think my data driving the PiP is pretty much all there in the thread. I'm going to download the Volt data from OnStar and will try to assemble...
I haven't downloaded the OnStar data from devprius's commute last week in my Volt. I will try to do that tonight. For comparison purposes with my...
Although Chevy sells $112,000 luxury sports cars like the ZR1 Corvette.
Although the CT200h is $8,000 more than the regular Prius, has substantially lower gas mileage estimates than the Prius (even though it has the...
Well, let's do some actual numbers from my commute next week in the Volt and see what happens. My lifetime EV ratio is 63.6% but that includes...
Right. Devprius has a largely similar commute, I think. I have some pretty good hills on my drive as well. I haven't been to his home but one of...
