Record EV Trips

  1. I finally had to reset trip A. Last reading was 78.6 miles @ 510 MPG. DOES ANYBODY HAVE HIGHER ON BOTH COUNTS?

    Yeah, like if I drive on trip a or b and do nothing but 10 mile trips and keep recharging, my mpg would read 999 continually. Does that mean I'd 'win' lol? I've had something like seventy something miles all ev with 999mpg but I didn't see it as a big deal since I did it in all EV mode knowing the engine never started.
     
  6. planning a slightly longer trip to include HV. For the most part I can drive usually in EV.
     
  7. Two important words there.....IF......BUT. I was speaking of my numbers or better. It is difficult to maintain 999 indefinitely. Just one little goose on the go pedal and 999 disappears to a smaller #.

    Document it and report it, it is a big deal. Most people's normal commute forces them into HV. So a very small minority can drive only in EV.

    I've only seen the 124 mile, ICE auto start once in over 5K miles. Now, if I took my gas-guzzling Lexus for any trip longer than 15 miles, or requiring freeway driving, I might be able to do it again. It all comes down to your driving requirements. EV suits some of us better than others, but we're all doing our part to reduce emissions and our country's need for foreign oil.:D
