Err, ummm, I'll have to go out to the car to take a look.
The headlights, A/C, seat heaters, defroster and stereo have very little draw, and won't really affect your actual range. Here's the amperage...
#1) There's no problem charging in the rain. The system is designed to protect the car and the user from any potential shock hazards. However, I...
None taken. We're glad to help.
I wouldn't say we have the manual memorized, but just lots and lots of experience with this specific part of the car.
Dianne, even if you bought the car out at the end of the lease, you still wouldn't be entitled to take the tax credit. You'd be the second owner...
It's only limited in the sense that it's only good for about a mile or two, and you can't go as fast as in normal EV mode for the PiP. It's...
The Sunol grade may not be steep enough, or long enough to do any significant regen. Coming down from the Sierras will do it as Andyprius#1 has...
Yes, it will come back on automatically once you have regen'd about 1.5 miles of EV range. Again, happens to me every single day. I usually have 2...
But you can make the trip home in the limited EV mode of the PiP, which is essentially the same as the Gen III's EV mode. You just can't manually...
If you are above 42 mph in HV mode, you are getting power from the ICE & the battery, which is the normal HV operation. If you are above 42 mph in...
The green EV light won't come back on until you are at 32.9% SOC/1.5 miles EV range. However, this doesn't mean that you can't drive in limited EV...
To add to what Tracksyde has said (and quoted me), when you have depleted all of your EV miles and are in HV mode, the car will run in the Gen 3...
You can manually switch back to EV mode when the SOC (state of charge) gets up to 27.9%. This is usually around 0.6 to 0.8 miles for me. The car...
First of all, there's two electric motors in the car. MG1 and MG2. MG2 is the larger motor which provides the bulk of the motive force. MG1 is...
If the ICE is running, it's mostly likely driving the wheels directly. The main exception to this being when you are going in reverse. There are...
To be clear, when the ICE runs and generates more electric power via MG1 to supply MG2, the ICE is also driving the wheels at the same time. The...
The preset screens are independent of whether you are tuned to AM, FM, or SAT. If you wanted to, you could have 2 FM stations, 3 SAT channels and...
I finally had to do the brakes on my 2005 at 140K miles. The dealership had been telling me for the last 40K miles I needed new brakes really...
You are correct that there is one big battery that is logically divided up into EV mode and HV mode. However, your numbers are off, or flipped...
