Separate names with a comma.
As I understand it from what's been explained before, on L2 it lowers the amps that it draws... so while it might draw 12 amps on L1, it might...
It would actually be bad for the battery if it were "empty". (As in, it'd be ruined). Lithium batteries don't like either extreme. That said,...
From what I can tell, the general public expects/understands MPG best as it is currently reported. (as in total miles driven / gas used). The...
Everything you do with gasoline involves losses also. But yes, people do tend to ignore anything before stuff reaches their hands, be it anything...
You do realize that a lot of energy in gas, and involved with creating it also doesn't reach the wheels? There's finding the raw stuff, there's...
As I understand it, the pip's engine running every 124 miles is for the purpose of engine maintenance, not managing fuel age. Hence the bit in...
It's not that simple... cars generally suffer from efficiency loss in winter, so it may very well be below EPA currently. But it is correct that...
Just as the plug EVSE is not energized when it's not in use, the induction coil wouldn't be energized when it's not in use either... So phantom...
Range anxiety should be irrelevant (or in the volt's favor, if you're counting electric range only). Prius is indeed larger. (If you actually...
I think what you're getting at is, there are diminishing returns, so as a vehicle is made more and more efficient, the difference in efficiency...
< 11 miles the difference should be minor, probably largely ignorable. Short aggressive/high speed commute would actually favor the volt, not the...
General considerations: If you haven't done so already, I'd recommend test driving both cars at a range of speeds - especially both city and...
Tracking dual power isn't simple - if I always use HV uphill and EV downhill, my EV numbers would be good, but my HV numbers would be low. If I do...
For what it's worth, I'm not seeing that big of a difference < 11 miles with EPA numbers and costs from that chart. I'm seeing the 2012 volt being...
Assuming you've reduced usage/increased efficiency of what you could, and shifted what you could to off-peak hours, any chance you can get solar?...
EPA rating for electric range of the pip is 11 miles. Obviously, your mileage will vary... (how you drive, temperature, terrain...) If you're...
My workplace offers free coffee and tea. I don't drink coffee or tea. I don't imagine they offer vouchers or what not for other drinks. My...
If they're complaining that the range is too short for their tastes, that means they want to be in EV mode more, which means they probably enjoy...
And there's room for both cars in the garage? Or do you put yours in the garage instead? I don't get people who have a garage but don't use it...
