My EV Driving ratio

just had a brutal tank. did a lot of long trips. only 900 miles and my last pip is blinking. 60/40 hv/ev ratio.

 

go pitt!

 

two superbowls in the final moments? what's to dislike!

 

322 miles
62%:38% EV:HV ratio
Commute 4 miles each way top speed 45 mph

 

202 miles 52 Kwh unadjusted

122 miles 2 gallons

According to the car's computer I am averaging 118 mpg

 

Ev driving ratio
EV 65%
296kwh
HV 35%
13 gal
EV total miles 1260
HV total miles 667
Distance to empty 448
Total miles 1928
Fuel Saved by charge 24.8 gallons

 

Ok - I'm ready to brag. Almost 5K miles and over 80% EV on it.
It works very well for me. But, I do have to work hard at charging it. I often charge 2 or 3 times a day.

 

bwahahahaha, 78 gallons less sold by the oil companies! Good work!

 

Very impressive! Please provide details on the strategies you employ to achieve a 4:1 EV:HV ratio.

 

I totally missed where you traded in your GenII for the PIP. Congrats, bro!

 

What are you talking about?

 

Torque is an Android app that talks to a OBD adapter to provide a custom instrumentation dashboard and logger.

The custom PIDs are vehicle specific codes for reading sensors from the OBD port, like battery state of charge, power flow, regen power, etc...

 

I work hard at it.
I have a level 2 charger in my garage. I use it even for 10-20 minutes at a time if I have to come home from work and then go out again soon for a short trip. Using the level 2 charger I get about 1 mile per 7 minutes of charging time.
When I drive the carpool to school and then to work, I do stop and charge on the way and work on my laptop for the 30 minutes it takes to recharge.
I *always* recharge at work.
I make heavy use of chargepoint stations - even if I occasionally have to pay outrageous rates, although most chargepoint stations in the San Jose area are free. Overall, I've paid about $10 to chargepoint in charging fees in the last 7 months.
And finally, the cheating way out - I take our 2008 Prius on most trips longer than about 25 miles. But, since it gets almost as good mileage.... Truth be told, I think I'd be at 60% if I didn't use the other Prius for those trips. And, the PiP would have gotten better mileage so overall I would have saved more gas. But, I've been actively trying to see how good a ratio I could get so I drove the other one anyway even on these longer trips.

2 more things I do:

I use the GPS short route option a LOT. It has helped many times to make a non-EV trip into a fully-EV trip.

And, I also choose to drive the PiP for any trip within the EV range. So, for most trips less than 7 miles, I now drive the PiP and do not drive the 2008 Gen2.

 

I guess I need to ease up on the pedal at 30kWh/100mi, or start taking the side roads.
