Hey PriusChat, I'm Adam, a working journalist based in Texas. I'm evaluating the IS-C and HS250H later this morning, and will be webcasting the drive live (as long as cell service holds out!) If you're curious to have a look, or if you have questions about the car, definitely join me during the webcast and I'll relay your comments to the Lexus PR team. You can find a link to the webcast on my Twitter feed: twitter.com/highmileage I hope this emerging medium is of interest to you guys. Hope to see some of you later today! Glad to be here, guys. //Adam
We're trying to figure out what the "B" means in Hybrid Synergy Drive's gearshift. I think it means "engine braking." Any insight? (Am I allowed to use that word?! ) Driving the IS-C for the next little while -- then the HS after lunch. Stay tuned.
yes, thats it . It is basically for steep hills to simulate engine braking, i am sure someone can post a bit more as Prius has it too...
