    I know EV is not available at very hot and cold temperatures. Could I know that at what temperature of hybrid battery EV is non functional. I am in Asia.

    My car has Li-ion battery. Today I found at 97F or more, EV is not available.

    You have the battery in the center next to the driver. You mean the inside cabin temperature reaches 97 F? I can maybe tolerate 78 F that is way too hot!

    Yes, my battery is under centre console. 97F is not cabin temperature. Its hybrid battery temperature showed by dr Prius app. Cabin temperature was 77°F.

    @jacktheripper was looking for this info about the OEM Toyota lithium pack.

    Maybe he knows something about it...
