Good point, and I am indeed taking that into account. I have one of those that I use when I go to a destination that doesn't have charging and is...
It's a question on the California driver's test. If you get more than five cars behind you on a two-lane road, you have to pull over and let them...
?? Then you pull over and let them pass. That's driver's ed 101. This is getting fairly far from the topic, which is hypermiling. I would note...
Definitely. In some ways it's made it harder for hypermilers to improve efficiency, but in the broader sense it's always hypermiling for you.
If everyone else is driving 30mph above it - yes, it is. (And fairly hazardous to boot.) That's rarely true around here, though.
Absolutely. But like the post above said, it's still antisocial.
That works with most cars, because it reduces pumping losses. However, with a Prius, the Atkinson cycle engine reduces them already, and the...
The 8.8kW includes a buffer to protect the battery from damage. If you try to take it below that the battery's BMS will shut down the battery's...
You'll get ABOUT twice the range. The additional battery capacity will give you a little more than twice the energy available (since lower...
Update - found a great teardown video from John Kelly which suggests that the contactor assemblies inside the battery contain service ports that...
I have an EV. My wife uses it. My goal with the Prime is to use gas as seldom as possible. PHEV's are a good tradeoff between the resources...
It's pretty bad. You end up with water in the exhaust system and oil that is not removed by the heat of normal operation. I run the ICE about...
You drive it until the car decides the battery is "empty." That generally happens via a combination of coulomb counting and voltage measurement....
EV batteries are systems that contain the BMS, the housing, the connectors, (usually) the contactors that disconnect and 'safe' the battery when...
Thanks, that's useful!
