this is the article I was referring to. I would love to compare with any of you that have actually driven a production model with the smaller pack.
Its worse than that... Many of the PHV supporters here at PC think the pack will fill itself back up as they drive along the highway in CS mode...
Problem being it won't have a non-blended CD mode, your All Electric Range = 0 miles (my prediction for your EPA sticker). Review I read from a...
I can tell you on my Volt the number for the range rarely goes up, even when the true range does. If you have a lot of regen, like a long...
They are assuming Toyota is lying about the CD efficiency and it really most be triple digits at least
Its not a 20 mile sweet spot its a 35 mile superiority zone 94 mpge is better than 87 mpge. Back out around 100 miles the PHV will surpass the...
Your assuming the charge depletion stops while the car is using the ICE uphill. I think what you'll find instead is blended operation where the...
I was using the data from the Toyota PiP website which gives the three key numbers, CS range, CS economy and CD economy. I may be misinterpreting...
So what Gen mustang are they on? Seems like at some point just going to the model year makes a lot of sense (particularly when they are also...
I am sorry you are incorrect. A PHV will travel 15 miles at 87 mpge. A Volt will travel those same 15 mils at 94 mpge For the next 20 miles the...
First. Unless comparing to a Tesla in which case I believe you rank second.
Yeah it seems weird to use a number there that they are not displaying on the sticker for the particular vehicle. The descriptor (written by...
Electric operation upped to 94 mpge on 2012 EPA label: http://www.chevroletvoltage.com/images/stories/VoltEPA1.jpg
Leaf and Volt are directly comparable because the ratings were arrived at the same way. The PHV is going to use gas during those same tests so...
I'm thinking a reasonable usable range on the battery is going to be about 3kwh, so divided over the 15 mile range gets the 200 wh/mile. There...
Problem is your all electric only non-blended range will equal zero miles.
We don't need to guess the number Toyota gave us its 87 mpge. If you go back and look at the sample sticker, the two numbers we don't know yet...
I'm sorry I'm not communicating more clearly. Let me try an example with your numbers: Volt = 360 Wh/mile = 5.4 kwh used in 15 miles PHV =...
I agree it must contain some gas usage in the calculation, just as their blended cd operation will consume some gasoline for a net effect of 87 mpge.
Prius Team said we should compare the 87 mpge of the PHV prius to the 93 mpge of the Volt, so I did. Also, I never claimed to be more efficient...
