Separate names with a comma.
That is how the engineers set the drivetrain up. In my former Prius c, westbound out of the tunnel, the motor stayed at minimum RPM's until the...
Water on the road, especially standing water increases rolling resistance appreciably. My by the pencil and calculator method over 6000 miles is...
I see 73 mph only on sustained downgrades which are plentiful here in central Colorado. I have to wonder if the Li Ion battery vs NiMH battery...
[ATTACH] The tripmeter was reset at 11,010 feet elevation and ended at 5,343 feet. Loss of 5667 feet. Most of it was at highway speeds....
IMHO two trends have affected the Prius sales. 1. Low fuel prices and related: 2. Traditional cars as a whole are losing sales. As SUVs And...
Check this video out. This guy did the same route three years ago in a Prius c and got 65mpg, which at the time I thought was pretty amazing. I...
Good observation! I selected that display mode for the photo because EV% mode and average speed are key numbers. The higher EV% and lower...
Toyota Prius - Power Split Device Play with this interactive website. It is very instructive. The fun thing about the 2016 Prius is that they...

I am of the opinion that gas should be taxed this way here. It would encourage conservation, we would have more money to make our roads as nice as...
BWAH! You just sent me off to search gas price sites. It would seem 1.6 Euros/liter is what you meant. ? $5/ liter is a bit much.
"noise and all" : It is all relative. My Two Eco is the quietest car I have owned. That said I do tend to like basic cars. My 2000 Corolla was...
As much as I delight in the overall mileage just now topping the 60mpg mark (3.9l/100km) with the warming weather, sometimes I think of how much...
Twice I have seen 73mph with the green EV icon illuminated. It is rare at 65 and above. Furthermore, the EV light is far less prone to...
