    i was late.
    so i used power/combat driving (high acceleration, hard braking and high speed curves).
    a 20 min drive was cut to 10.
    until i turned off the car, it acted as if its in a power mod.
    any press on the accelerator turned on the ICE on high rev
    alas my elm327 is of the defective v2.1 and it got disconnected 2 minutes after i turned on the car no data to verify my feeling
    any one can verify or correct me?

    p.s.
    excellent behavior by the car
    of the 4 i had so far this one has the most power and all of then wer 1600cc 1.6l

    Were you happen to be driving in B yesterday when you were late? That might explain the higher revs.

    I still relate to 98.6F, and I'm in the great metric North. I happened to notice a missing person description on the news tonight: height and weight were given in the old, imperial system units. Guess they found when they used metric people stayed lost. :whistle:

    The height in the driver's licence is in imperial intervals even though the units on the card itself is in metric.

    The Prius' OAT calculation is in Celsius, even in US-spec cars. You'll never see the temperature go up/down by a single °F, it'll jump a few.
