That was a surprisingly positive comparison for the Volt vs. a $75k + Model S. This past winter I used very little electric heating in commute...

I'm pretty sure I found the experience of the other "Truther" that this guy references in his video. It's from a review of the Ford C-MAX Energi...
It's clear from the video and from the claimed results that the Volt in that scenario is not charging at work and is only charging overnight. I...
How would you quantify or characterize the limits that hybrids are approaching? With hybrids only about 3% of sales and a smaller percent of cars...
Yup, no problem making it there in EV downhill as long as you don't crank the heater up. :)
F8L, how far is your downhill trip? I do 45-46 mostly flat highway miles all year long on battery in my Volt at 55-60 mph while driving into work in...

Meanwhile.... France held their final legislative vote this morning and overwhelmingly passed a marriage equality bill. It should take effect in a...
Most people also probably don't know what a "Prius V" is. I typically use my Volt=LEAF+"Prius-like" analogy when speaking with members of the...
What does he mean by his statement? [/quote] I have no idea. He obviously doesn't average 238 MPGe -- he means 238 MPG. If you go look at the...
