The car's not checking anything itself about 3 or 1 phase mains wiring - the EVSE reports what's available. The portable EVSE knows it's for a...
Toyota's (paid) technical doc services have a "New Car Features" document for each model which goes into that level of detail.
Oops, okay, I'm out of my depth here - I'd forgotten the RAV4 had liquid-cooling, something I should have remembered. I thought you were saying...
Correct, it's using the cabin air for cooling, same as the G4 Prius PHEV. But the overall behaviour is the same - as necessary when charging it...
Actually, there are options to disable heating and/or cooling while charging, so you're free to stop it using power for temperature control. But...
Yes.
Basically all the world apart from North America uses the UNECE regulations I was referencing including Japan. So EU and Japanese Prius lights are...
Which direction are you looking the indicators from? They may be more directional than you expect. The regulated light field is from 5 to 55...
Even the most useless dealer should be letting the tyres down a bit at least, as that's what activates the TPMS sensor transmitters - first sudden...
Hardly "magically" - those hybrid transmissions were designed to use it. There's no evidence the transmissions calling for TE were ever designed...
Found myself wondering, so just checked - "original" Japanese manual also shows cross rotation. US is the odd one out.
Actually, later in the US video there's another launch which has a continuous rpm rise, more like the European video. Maybe the "gear change"...
Okay, right, I am seeing 6000 rpm shown as the rpm for the peak 112 kW engine power in various places. Which does suggest that it is permitted to...
Agreed on those calculations, but where are you getting 6000rpm for ICE engine from? Previous generations have been limited lower - 4500rpm in...
The US manual, yes. The European one shows cross rotation. I don't think there's any deep significance there - I'm going to guess that they don't...
I see some discussion about ratio of MG2 rpm to km/h over there. My calculations - based on the numbers already listed above: G1 = 36 (rpm /...
@Max_B - glad you found it helpful. I've had a look at your PTC thread. I made my own non-live nomograph by adjusting the ratios in Toyota Prius...
In the G5, yes, EV power goes only through MG2. MG1 and the ICE normally do nothing - ICE sits still due to friction, and MG1 freewheels. But the...
MG2 is specced for 163 HP / 120 kW. But MG2 has never been the limiting power in EV mode - MG2 has to be sized to cope with maximum power output...
Interesting stuff. Doesn't that suggest the opposite of what you said before? It's showing the instantaneously-available value, which is what...
