yup, I went out today to see if I had it on, and yup, that's what I got. meanwhile here in Michigan we're in the middle of a winter storm, 9 inches predicted, drove a co-worker home got 12 miles EV when it ran out and ICE took over
lol, you're serious? top speed maybe 25 MPH, average speed 5 MPH, and, no, not anywhere near a highway.
still trying to figure out Pinnacle 21 (movie software) to put two camera video's one on top of the other. but the video of the snowstorm is from my dashcam, not what @john1701a has.
+, + Just got 17 miles out of a full charge. Teens at night and up to 25 F in the daytime. I've got 3/8 of a tank remaining from August. And I hadn't used a cup of that until now. I don't mind flushing it all out and refreshing with some new gas that I almost might somehow maybe hardly not even use up by the end of winter. But when the ice is glued onto all the windows, and the inside of the windows are also covered with humidity, and I have to shovel around the car to move it - yes - there's gonna be some HV gas usage. I can handle that for a few months.
No. I plug in once every 3-5 days. My commute is 1.5 miles each way. So unless I have an actual errand to run, the short cold commutes and the car sitting in cold soak mode cuts the EV mileage a bit. In this last EV period I had used the heater several times. And it went to ICE with 3.5 miles left at 24 degrees to precondition. I know that's the way it should work, but that does cut the mileage shy of what a warmer day would offer. 17 is the shortest EV actual I've had yet. Most was 32 miles. Perhaps in the winter I should just convert them to kilometers to make me feel better. 17 = 27.5
in my case, I was plugged in, drove 2.7 miles to work, worked, then drove co-worker home, using up 12 miles of EV before ICE kicked in.
Ahh I see. So it's a worst-case scenario - cold soak with no plug. Good to know. Thanks! Yes.. 27.5km... excellent. "Now you speak-a my language" Holy.
Actually I think you get more snow than I do. But temps are probably the same. Curious to see what happens at -40..... just for the heck of it. (Not that I'm wishing that kind of temperature on you)
