Any one else getting more than 30 per charge?

Excellent choice. Most of the fuel economy will return as they break in.

 

Haha, Someone from the Northwest may be able to tell you.

 

Thanks,
That's good to know!

man, you're going up ... at the speed of a crippled snail, slowly but surely

 

owtch, owtch, owtch, crawl, crawl, crawl

 

You think RAIN might be a problem wait if you see that cold white stuff we call SNOW.

 

hush! you! no four letter words beginning with "S"

 

Bye Bye over 30 miles EV in Houston summer.
Despite car shows 31-33 Ev range I can only get 27-29 in 100 degF humid weather here in Houston.
and... if I decide to go 60+ the ev range goes down to 25-27 miles EV (btw car still estimates above 30 ev range)
The HVAC takes heavy toll in those conditions. Strangely enough I noticed that Ppre-conditioning of the car b4 departure while still plugged in doesn't help. It drains the battery and after pre-conditioning the cal resumes charging which takes too long time ( even with Level2 charger) to take benefit of pre-conditioning ev range wise. In lower temps (80-90F) it worked, but now (90-100F) it gives only more comfort on departure, but no EV range gain.
I guess I need to take 10-15% off the estimated EV range to plan my EV only trips.

 

You got me today. lol 33.3 in the rain. But I did get 81.2 mpg on HV only return trip home today, 34.8 miles. 82° and lots of traffic. Got to love the Friday afternoon summer traffic at the Jersey Shore.

 

Depends on where in California you live, you may find out about this phenomenon in the coming years.

California projected to get wetter through this century

 

We need it badly... SoCal got much less than NorCal this past winter... so I'll accept a hit on EV/mpg... a little that is

 

I have about 7k on my Prius Prime and I live in New Colorado. This is the highest it's been.
