Separate names with a comma.
I think I will just have to do this situation myself to see what the car does. People have valid points but are contradictory in certain areas. I...
So you need to be in EV mode for aggressive regenerating instead of the engine braking in B mode? #1 in Easley,SC
Does the car need to be in EV mode with the B mode to regenerate the battery full? #1 in Easley,SC
So your saying in B mode on the Prime before the battery is full, uses the motor and not the engine to slow down the car. The B mode is supposed...
I know on my 2005, the battery would deplete going up a mountain for torque that was needed. #1 in Easley,SC
But wouldn't the car use electricity still in HV mode which would add to the 9 miles? #1 in Easley,SC
I would have to use strictly HV mode see how much electricity would be used in that mode, which it would use some electricity, but don't know how...
I will deplete the battery going up and most likely not fill the full battery potential going down because it wouldn't be a long enough descent to...
Under the assumption that you would be driving more than the regenerated EV range, I would say put it in ECO HV mode until you get to stop and go...
Of course when I mention regenerating electricity to fill the battery full, I know it only uses 80 % of the battery capacity each time it is...
Do you have a YouTube channel for videos? #1 in Easley,SC
That's nice to know. What I particularly had in mind was the drive through Cherokee NC to Gatlinburg TN. I was thinking of saving my EV range for...
Sounds like to me, if I want the most regenerating done in my Prime, I need to have it in D mode and use the brakes gradually and it will fill the...
Does B mode actually charge the battery faster or does it just use the engine as a brake so not to use the brakes as much? I know pressing the...
Ok. I wasn't sure if the hybrid system capped at the hybrid portion of the battery or if it would go beyond that to charge the whole battery. I...
I know it is all one battery, but in hybrid mode with the EV portion of the battery being used solely for EV use is depleted, does the battery...
I have a curious question. I haven't had an opportunity to try to go down some mountains to find this out, but how does the Prius Prime charge the...
You can put it in EV mode until you know ahead of time that you need power and then switch to EV auto mode. Then when you are done, switch back....
The "holder" is used in other countries as a super charging port. It is not available here in the US. .
You may need to drive in EV auto mode. It should kick the engine on when you need the extra power. .
