I am on a E-7 meter as we have solar on our house, so yes, my cost of electricity is .09 per kWh in the evening (or hopefully free if we generate...
So with gas now below $2 - I think the national average is about $1.75, I was curious what the cost of just driving with gas vs. PHEV vs. electric...
Well I got permission to charge at my garage for the indefinite feature. I offered to tack and pay for KwH and the manager sees it as an...
Just an update on my commute mileage - it is indeed getting better. I got 85 MPG R/T Friday - 56 miles total, charged the car at my parking...
The shop that did my Hymotion install (Pat's Garage in SF) had these on his Hymotion demo Prius. I got a test drive of his car. He has an upgraded...
I have an EV switch that is not installed. I will check with Pat's Garage next week to see if he would be willing to try this experiment.
Peak - I am not sure - it definitely warms up upon startup - no way around it. I am driving mostly freeway speeds, and what I have seen a few...

The Hymotion kit is $10K plus tax. It is probably the best deal out there right now for a true and tested PHEV vehicle. It has been CARB...

Jay - you would need to know the fuel cost over there as that is no doubt what they are using. Generally, fuel in Europe costs more than twice...
I presume you are referring to the B mode? I thought that was just for increased engine braking on long down hill grades? Does it give you more power?
Thanks for the reply. I have the OE EV switch, but was waiting to install it until I got the Hymotion pack in place. I think I am an October...
As the Hymotion battery allows to draw more amps, does that mean you can accelerate faster in EV mode without triggering the ICE - or does it...
Thanks for the info. Obviously you are an accomplished hypermiler, but still, those results are impressive. I fear if I drove like that on my...
