Even the 0.75% slope. It's barely a slope. That's a quarter-inch per yard.
I bet you can't go 100 miles on a 0.75% slope in EV with stop and go traffic and stop lights.
When I was commuting I could drive the 39 miles to work in all EV with anywhere from 25% - 38% left, depending on traffic and the stop lights. It...
The Leaf is a disaster of a car. I know. I sold my 2018 Prime and bought a 2020 Leaf S plus. It was so annoying that I sold it 5 months later. If...

I have owned a 2012 Prius Plugin for 9 years, and it's been parked on the street the whole time. No problems. I also have a Prius C parked on the...
The car won't let you do that. If you try to start it while it's plugged in you'll get a message on the dash that the charging door is open.
Because NiMH batteries can be charged and discharged from 0% to 100% thousands of times without loosing significant capacity. They are also less...
It depends on your needs. If you need more charge cycles with less degradation and weight is less of an issue, I think NiMH may still be a better...
