Separate names with a comma.
I agree with this. Car is only lower by 20mm, but seat is lowered by approx 60mm. That is considerably lower than current Prius. One reason my...
I concur with your evaluation. Infact they moved the 12V to front, and that to higher position than previous location. This raises CG little bit....
David, Toyota never claimed it has better acceleration times, but rather acceleration curves has been modified to make it smoother (it is more...
There is a saying "if you don't have anything good to say, then don't say",... that is what Toyota is doing.. :)
You seems to believe gearing addresses the lack of power. Shorter final drive ratio reduces fuel economy/efficieny, reduces top speed. I...
I gave the weights in line. As stated infact it is 100KG more than Gen 2, and 10KG more than Gen 3.
Toyota did not cut the weight, rather it is increased compared to Gen 3. Please take a look at press release which clearly given the weight of...
Then, I guess, there is still room for negotiation.
$3k Rebate, is this Toyota rebate in CA, or some kind of CA state rebate? The price quoted here includes the $2500 Toyota rebate, but not...
I am seeing something new at Green car reports, it says new Car is shorter, not longer than Gen 3. (Which contradicts what we saw until now). Not...
Wondering which dealer is offering that price? In WA and Oregon , the best I saw for Prius 2 is $20,500. One of my colleague is trying to...
Yes, I am hoping for some tricks here. I am pretty sure torque curve of the ICE is broader than outgoing version, but generally improvements...
Yes, I agree. I looked thru all pdfs, and it indicates what you said. Still.. you know I want it to perform better, so that merging on highway...
ICE power is already given in the spec. It is lower than current Prius (not much difference though). All internal engine friction is accounted for...
Sorry, I have to disagree with you about the statement "Torque doesn't matter". Yes, torque does matter, if torque is less, then you have to...
Yeah, that's all we can do now, wait and see. But transmission losses are not going to account for reduced horse power. As per Toyota statement,...
Thanks for complete comparison data! This is really helpful in getting the comparative perspective.
Yes, the reduction factor might help multiply the torque at lower speed, but that does not account for HP. Assuming that is the case here, HP...
Those figures are for Gen 3, directly from Toyota website for 2015 Prius. Toyota Prius Interior, Exterior & Safety Features
But it seems Motor lost quite a bit of power. Current Gen 3 is 80HP(60KW) 153lb-ft(207Nm) That considerable loss of torque and power from...
