I doubt that "net HP rolls in slowly" on purpose, it's HSD design that restricts ICE to spinning at max rpm at slower speeds. But even if you are...
What HSD lacks is accelerator response this makes a huge subjective difference in performance, they should make a small supercap only for 500 ms...
I pointed this out also, he got 140 MPG in his best efforts. I think this is also due to inverter efficiency improvement and maybe lower parasitic...
Yes that is true, but it's an interesting project :)
I think there are more ways to measure fuel flow, there is also option "Enhanced MPG calculation" that may help. I had custom PID for BSFC and...
Why not add BSFC in the Torque app, formula is on PriusChat somwehre ;) Or you can do it yourself with custom PIDs (engine torque, engine rpm,...
No you can't, because there are numerous occasions where you want sub 10 kW of power from the ICE, even at 1,000 rpm at WOT in 1.8 engine there...
Valvematic is highly unlikely, otherwise Toyota would be bragging about it. And also in a Hybrid there would be minimal benefit from Valvematic,...
VW has a simple solution for EU models: Green Car Congress: VW’s relatively simple technical fixes for cheating 1.6 and 2.0L diesels accepted by...
On more note about the data, 50-75 mph (aka. 80-120 kph) time is 7.57 s, Toyota's official number is 8,3s, apparently this time includes...
Fix-a-flat works in most cases but not all, it's good enough for me.
You will have to wait another 6 years, or buy your self a RAV4 hybrid.
With hybrid battery $/kWh is meaningless it's $/kW without "h" that counts. There are no 200 $/kWh li-ion cels in a hybrid battery and they won't...
Tires in US and EU are usually very different, we almost don't' have all season tires, the ones we do have (5 models) are more of a winter tires...
I assure you that variation in MPG between different tires is nowhere near your preposterous 16%. I have been driving on one of the most fuel...
7 years from now you will have a similar list why you choose Gen4 and not Gen5 Prius :p
Here is a nice video (maybe data is from this?), notice any sounds? Consider the camera mic is facing the engine and you can still clearly hear...
100 MPG? That's nothing, Wayne got over 140 MPG on a slow city circle. This indicates that low speed city MPG will get a massive boost, while...
I found it for all you sceptic out there: 2014 Toyota Prius Hybrid - Price, engine, full technical specifications - The Car Guide Gen3 times: -...
Technically It was a question not accusation :whistle: It's the same NA 1.8 engine with marginally lower peak power but marginally higher torque...
